I have a pair of unmounted WC101 -- anyone here ever played with the mount? I am thinking of going +1 or +2 from rec to make the ski even better for buttering/jibbing...

Moments Rec mount point is typically the sweet spot for their skis though plenty of people change if they have a preference.

I just haven’t heard anyone say a moment ski was better when they weren’t on the rec line.

I picked up some WC101s last spring and went +1 for easier spin-ability, but in hindsight wish I went rec as I realized I just don't spend as much time in the park as I used to. I'd say it depends if you're looking for higher all-mtn speed limit, or prioritize jibbing/spinnig.

I reappy like the recommended mounting
point for the 101. I'd say only mount forward if you're riding it in the park (which I verrrry rarely do)

Lookin to pick up the death wish 112's for a few stops out west at Big Sky. I'm 5'10 and about 170, used to skiing long ass skis with a good bit of rocker(vishnu's, mango's) should I send it with the 179 or 184?

184 all day if your use to longer sticks. 179 would be fine if your trying to strictly use it in trees or tight places.

triple camber skis short anyways. I have the 104 and 112 in 184

Saw the commander series is sold out atm. Excluding the reserve skis have the new commander series been the best selling in the new line up so far?

Retail wise, we got a heavy amount of orders for them. We will have more Commanders available soon, just need to ensure we get all our retailers taken care of.

This piece of paper came with my CB’s. I was super stoked because I thought it was one of those temporary tattoos. I was gonna put it on my back.

Not a tattoo but still sick I guess

It’s the paper from the top sheet graphic transfer process. Instead of just tossing it after they save it and use it for shipping stuffing. Always check what you get. I had the new deathwish tour and Wildcat graphics before they ever released the ski.

Looking for the 2021 Commander 118 in a 188, would maybe settle for 182. I'd love this specific model year with the flatter tail. Let me know if anyone have any leads.

Ah gotcha, I remember the 108 changing a lot from the owl to the wolf topsheet in terms of rocker and taper so i figured the 118 would be the same story? Guess not.

Skiburger will be back up in a week or so, no new products being added though. We're moving all skiburger stuff to http://www.momentskis.com for BFCM weekend, so it will be available there in a day or two.

I'm looking for a set of wildcats if you have a set you'd be willing to part with. I'm looking for 190cm. I've been perusing on ebay and Facebook marketing, but can't find any moment skis in my size

I am under the impression the Ghost Chant was only made for 2 seasons and stopped in 2013? unless they've been available for special order and I missed them?

Ghost Trains I think took over in 2014? Which was the combination of the Ghost Chant and the Night train IIRC

The hype is real folks. I’ve only had two days on snow with these bad boys, but my expectations have already been exceeded. The have such confidence instilling edge hold while somehow also being so easy to scrub/pivot/mess around on that I don’t even need to think about transitioning between the two. Some truly unbelievable stuff - I’m a real fanboy now.
