Feeler: MOMENT MELEE 186 (rockered)

Here is a review some one did on them....

Me-6'1" 155lbs, Expert, likes trees, and steeps.
Ski - Moment Melees w/ solly z12s mounted true center
Conditions - two feet of fresh, heavy powder, more or less tree skiing
Skis I like -- Ruby 188, JJ's 188(?), ARV's 185, K2 AK enemies
Dislike - Big troubles, Gotamas

Construction - Yes, bomber, bases especially. This was opening day at our mountain and we definitely didn't have full coverage, yet there wasn't even a scratch on the bases. Topsheets didn't take too hard of a beating and there wasn't much damage there. With having one of the lightest bindings on them, it felt like there was hardly anything on my feet.

Fairly easy to ski. The rocker took some getting used to; just staying away from back seat in the pow (who woulda thunk it?). They are suuper soft and plus the rocker makes them feel even softer, but they still handled considerably better than expected.

Groomed - There wasn't much corduroy to ski yesterday but on hardpack i wasn't so impressed. Once I got to about 30 (roughly) they started gettin pretty squirrelly. I didn't take them much past that mainly because my din was set way too low and they already felt like they were about to fly off. heh but they were still able to hold an edge when needed, though a little extra effort was also a factor.

Bumps - well every damn runout was bumpy yesterday. If there wasn't some fresh snow on top you really had to work to control the skis. my thighs were killin me by the end of the day.

Trees - Epic. That's all I really need to say. I was skiing the rubies in the morning and they were actually quit comparable. Great float, easy control and landing switch was not one bit of a problem. The main difference was that I had to stay away from backseat or I'd just slide out on my ass, I assume due to the rocker. They opened the second half of our mountain around noon and that gave us that whole side with two feet totally untracked. The rest of the guys were complaining about the heavy snow but the Melees tackled it wonderfully.

For a pow ski I'd say 10/10
For overall I'd say 8/10 due to the instability through the hardpack. I will note though that the instability was not from the tips flopping around. it was from the skis moving side to side over the snow from lack of edge grip. All I might need to do is keep on an edge, snowboard style or something like that.
