2012 On3p wrenegade thoughts?

Haven’t ridden them but I’ve read the 108 seems to just want to charge...Tgr forums might have alot more input than this forums on the wrens too

If you’re not skiing switch wrenegades will work. If it’s last years wrenegade you should be fine definitely not a super “playful” ski. This years wren is stiffer and is more of a charger. http://blistergearreview.com/gear-reviews/2017-2018-on3p-wrenegade-108

Yeah, it does depend on which year you're looking at. Last year's (17/18) were actually pretty forgiving, but still provided very good suspension. They weren't the chargiest skis because of their softer flex patterns (relative to other big-mountain chargers - they're still stiff compared to many skis that get talked about on NS). That meant that they offered a nice combo of forgiving, damp, and still pretty chargy, but I think really big or aggressive skiers might wish for a beefier ski.

The 18/19 versions are a bit stiffer and demanding, but they can be pushed a bit harder and, IMO, are more fun and poppy.

In terms of playfullness, the Wren's all have a ton of tip and (to a lesser degree) tail rocker, so they're quite easy to slash and way more playful than something like the Blizzard Cochise.

If you're not spinning or jibbing, the Wren series is great for skiing fast and hard in a pretty wide range of conditions and jumping straight off stuff.

So I'm looking at a pair from 2012 that have been very lightly used. I appreciate all the information though that really gives me an excellent idea of what to expect

Pair I'm looking at is from 2012 but they have barely been used

If I recall 12/13 model was more in the charging category than playful.
In 2012 I bought billy goats and it was a toss up between bg and wrens.
went bg cause wrens discription was super aggressive Skier vs bg.

2012 is a very chargey vintage. The newer Wrens got more refined and a bit friendlier for the average user, while keeping the locked in stability at speed and stiffness that the old ones had. The nose and tail has had some change since then.

They need space to run, and I wouldnt describe them as playful. Unless you're 300lbs.

Thanks for the feedback really appreciate it. I'm pretty big but definitely not 300lbs so that helps give me an idea
