CalumSKI1) bent chetler 100s are absoutly not directional, they are a full twin tip
2) just get park ksis ur gonna look dummy stupid in the park in directional skis


Just because the tips are both round doesn’t mean the skis aren’t directional

1 the Chet 100’s have a non symmetrical flex , non symmetrical tip to tail width , non symmetrical rocker profile tip to tail , is it -6cm mount fac? so they r ...in fact.... indeed...directional however easily got enough tail rocker to ski switch unless u mount ur bindings in the tails

2- directional skis in the park only look uncool if the rider is uncool , if your dope and do dope things you it’s gonna look dope , tho.... park skis are meant for park and directional has its purposes but a lot of skis can transcend their category well especially with mount point adjustments

Yeah my bad lol
I didn't know that about the rocker profile and most people I've seen ride the chat 100s ride them at a max of 2cm back so I didnt know that their recommended mount point was -6

I agree. I dont give a fuck what skis youre riding or what you look like if you can ski with some style I can get down with it. Hell Ive taken my bosses mogul skis and his old 90's super Gs through the park several times and theyre fun as fuck

If this is true I get plus 10 armor for my metal topsheets on me Stockli s 😂


Yah I would mount Chet’s at -2 , even my chronics (2027 before they went more all mountain are -2 or -3 , I still think Chet’s r a great park ski , especially for those of us who leave the park for all mountain without returning to the lodge to swap skis

I’ve never even seen a lot of skis as I don’t have friends that ski but I study skis and bindings n shit all year , new tech profiles whatever I can describe specs on almost any 2018/19 ski in prep for buying new skis w/o a proper demo program

check out full tilts for sure, the toe and heel have totally different shapes but you can still ski backwards in them

I believe Hugo played a Slvsh game on Enforcers, so anything's possible.

alright conclusion is Nordica enforcer, it seems that no one skis them in the park, probably meaning that they are too good for everyone

lol enforcer for a park ski... 19/20 Moment Commander is a better choice. You'll have more fun, and they are way cooler.

the line supernatural would be another choice to consider... also has metal, but is more freestyle leaning
