Yeah i saw these but didn’t know if they were just new graphics for QST series?
Cody also had those tape covered skis on his story which looked fairly standard.

From what I know one of the new line skis is gonna be like the old 108 SFB not sure if that’s the outline or if there’s another one coming. It’s supposed to be 107 this time around.
Yea I saw his post (that's where I got the name of the ski), and its hard to tell on the video because of the backlight. But it looks kinda concave on all the photos, or maybe its like the blue/brown vs gold/white dress shit all over again.
Saw some proto Mindbender 95(?) today. Phone was frozen so I couldn't get pictures. Cool ski, definitely freeride oriented with a more traditional mount and not a lot of tail splay. Decent amount of tip rocker but not as much as the pinnacle, felt way stiffer than the pinnacle as well. Dude who had them had some old ass steel STH 16's mounted so I couldn't really judge weight with those on there. Not gonna be my next ski but I'm very excited to try them. Rep said to watch for #bamf for Mindbender news.
Profahoben_212Same fit on the hawx? Have the xtd and love them....needing a new inbounds boot soon though.
The "normal" Hawx Ultra 130 S uses the same exact last as the Ultra XTD, so if you need a pure resort boot that will work perfectly for you.
BrawnTrendsExactly the same fit.
As for the pic, spoilers and liners look different. The all black/grey XTD looks super sick!
Will the changes affect all boots? Or just the 130s

So Sean was obviously joking with his post (I hope you all saw thru that :) )
The entire Ultra XTD range gets 2 major updates for next year but the 130 gets an additional 3rd update. If you look closely at Aymar's photo, you can see all of them.
I’m aware. 174 is too small and 184 might be a tad too big for me. I think a lot of people are in the same boat and would like to see a size between those two. Or maybe I should just sack up and get the 184.

Wildcat at 184cm is lighter than a 178cm Bibby would have been with their improved manufacturing techniques. Get the 184cm!
Thought you meant a 108 Wildcat non tour which I was pondering getting custom built for $999 before mint PB&J fell into my lap for $300. Lots of demand for a 108 regular Wildcat it seems out there so hope it will become a stock model.

Just sack up. Pow skis should be a bit bigger anyways.

My guess is replaceable soles, gripwalk or wtr, maybe even an alpine option?
Whole lines gets new plastic? More moldable or holds shape better perhaps.
BrawnTrendsThe liner looks different on the XTD, no?
Possibly, but I wouldn’t consider that a major update since it will still probably be too thin to really be good for skiing harder snow in, similar to the mtn lab and zero g, most people replace the stock liner immediately.

Final spoiler: All new liner that no one will be wanting to replace :)
