^ ya the graphic on the web site is the 07-08 graphic.   The skis are awsome they are compareable to the scratch but they are lighter , they have more pop and i think they ski better over all.

I live in reno, but im so pissed because last year i used line chronic 133s and this year i wanna get around 160's ish cuz im only 5 foot 5 and like 115 pounds but the lowest size is 171...

Anybody think i should get them? or the line anthems or invaders?

dude...call up luke...and ask him...he won't laugh at you (i promise)...tell him your situation...and ask him what he thinks is best...you never know...he might make you a custom 160 jib or something....i'm not promising anything...but i'm the rep for Canada..and knowing them...they like to think outside the box...and if there is demand for a ski that size...they'll make it
the number is on the website... www.momentskis.com

no shit eh?


I'm hoping for a 171 reno rocker (or maybe more like 175 rocker which skis like a 171) after SIA, or maybe next year.

and to the thread creator, they are insanely light. my pair with z10's are incredible... seriously. they're still stiff enough to ski all mountain, and feel sooo fun. annd yes, the graphics are the 07/08 graphics.

i can't wait for enough snow to ski my rubys.

how the jibs compare to the normal renos?
which is stiffer?
and do you think they would put the reno graphic on the reno jib if i called them up and offered to pay a little extra?

Depending on how busy they are, they might be able to put a Reno Jib graphic on the Reno. Don't take my word for it though.

I don't know how the Jibs compare to the Renos, but the Jib is definitely enough to ski all mountain.

well i ski invaders now because they were cheaper, but i ended up demoing the reno jibs and they are hella light and poppy like everyone says and theyve also got complete symmetricalness didnt try them on any rails cuz there was nothing setup for that, but there were a couple boxes and they did pretty good on them.
