Need help deciding between two chargers

So I'm considering between the new 102 on3p wrens and the old stock tychoons (both @186cm). Price difference is pretty significant ($729 vs $399) so I was hoping for some insight from NS. This would be for groomers/hardpack and occasional dips into powder if the conditions are there.

I'm 5'8" and 185lbs.

Let me know if there's any other info I can provide to help you guys.

Thanks!

Wren 102 elevated the standard. I wouldn't trade the days I had on the tychoon for anything, but I'd have even better memories had the wren 102 been realized earlier. I'm totally ok with the Tychoon going away as long as the Wren 102 replaces it.

Given my situation, I'm definitely not an unbiased source to rely on for an answer, so hoping for help from the masses that may have tried one or both. It's sunny and 90 here in Seattle currently, but damn I'm having flashbacks to the runs I got to take on the demo wrens this past year.

I'm with Rowen...everything about the new Wren 102 looks and sounds amazing...I can't wait to try them out. The Tychoon was awesome, but the Wren 102 takes it to a whole new level.

I had a feeling the wren's were going to win out. I had emailed on3p earlier about it and that was the recommendation I got from them too. Really bummed I missed the presale this year. This wouldn't even be a decision then.
