I'll toss in an ON3P review as well. All for 2013 models.

Skis I have loved: Line Mothership and K2 Sidestash

Skis I have liked: Armada TST

Skis I have tolerated: Nordica Zero

Skis I detest: 4Frnt CRJ

191 Wrenegade: Very surfy, and surprisingly maneuverable. Definitely do not be afraid of sizing up to the 191. Turn radius is ideal and the tips will not unexpectedly hook. Tail rocker makes them ski short and allows for smeared turns. They'll still lay a mean edge if you ask for it. Stiff underfoot, with great torsional rigidity. I disagree with others who have said they "slaughter babies", but they're a phenomenal ski nevertheless.

186 Vicik: Absolutely rail on edge, but deflect easily. Directionally quite soft, but torsionally stiff. Throw some metal in these and they'd be rockin' ski. As is, I was very disappointed by their versatility... or lack thereof. Not a good crud ski. They'll have you noticing every chunk of ice/snow that you plow through.

186 Tychoon: Really surprised by this ski. Super quick edge to edge and feel more stable than most 98mm skis. Really fun and lively in tight terrain and moguls. I wish I could have tried them on some steeper, more variable terrain but unfortunately was not able to. I'd be amazed if a 98mm ski could offer great stability on bigger lines, but know that that's not what they're designed for. They're great for their purpose.

Overall ON3P construction: Bomber. I absolutely smoked a rock on the Viciks and felt terrible about wrecking their demo skis... until I looked at the base and I had to search for the tiniest scratch. In terms of flex, I really wish they had a stiffer ski with metal. Their rocker profiles are spot on, and sidecut as well. I have mixed feelings about the use of bamboo, but see why some people like it. I'd be more likely to buy a pair if I skied somewhere with soft snow.

I have the OGs now and i agree. They are super fun and i trust them complete but slaughter babies? they arent that scary.

I think the term fit last seasons at they were pretty burly compared to the others.

I've only tried wrens and c&d's, and I'd say the c&d is definitely the one that slaughter's babies. haha

You are a prime fucking specimen of gear-queer bait. Feel free to take one of your 2015 ARMADA poles, and shove it up and down your ass, while you have your fashion-fruit-friend models his ARMADA 2022 OLYMPICS pro model jacket. It's OK if that is what you get off too, just keep it to your fucking self. No one wants to see that shit.
