Touring with B-Dogs?

I'm putting this in ski gabber because no one posts in at&bc. My situation is that I have an extra pair of skins, armada bdogs with marker holes drilled, and was given a pair of barons. These would be for east coast "side country" and skinning after the mountain closes. Thoughts?

The bdog is a narrower JJ by the way it is shaped. The flex is completely different so no way to compare it that regard. I say do it and report back.

I think those would be pretty fun! I tour on a 130-97-120ish ski so pretty much the same.

I liked the short turn radius for tree skiing and their width handle fine in any powder I've skied in with them in. My only worry would be their weight, but I'm putting frame bindings on them and not really going long distances on them anyway.
