What is it like to use a ski like the Bent Chetler 120?

I use it for treeskiiing pow and some mild touring (shifts)

its liiiiiiiiiiiiight and soft, but for beeing that light & soft its good

I've only skied it inbounds which probably isn't it's intended purpose but it was tons of fun until things got choppy. In chop, it's not bad but the suspension isn't great and the skis want a lot of input.

it will survive the chop to get back to lift

It's terrible in Mt. Hood chop. I loved it until things got spicy.

It's so fucking light it's unreal.
They are like big park skis without the weight. I skied multiple days of super slushy spring park with them and it was a blast! They float on the slush without problem and as they are twintips, boosting down the park switch and forward is equally easy and fun.
Low weight (and swing weight) also makes them nice for jumping and throwing 1s and 3s in that slushy spring park.

They are also super solid for their weight, wouldn't really call them soft. The mid 1/3 is solid as fuck and the tips & tails are way softer. When flexing there's clear hinge point between the solid and soft sections. Overall wouldn't call them soft but they flex nicely if you really push them.

Obviously they're pow skis, so carving and stuff is pretty hard and not too fun but they fucking rule on pow and on spring slush.
Even on harder and uneven snow I think they are solid and can handle the speed and bumps well.

If you're a park rat like me, these are the perfect pow skis as they are just really wide and light twintips.

New ones r ass. Old 120s are super heavy and down mind chop.

I kinda like them but not for what I thought I would.in deep open bowls I experienced some major tip dive and you have to stay really centered and almost lean back.but for treeskiing in powder they are perfect.I don’t really trow tricks so they have become my treeskiing touring skis for now

Im not leaving this thread until i get credit for this

I was surprised at how well they handled for how light they are. I used them for a dozen or so touring days this year, and was stoked on the weight. Used them in Colorado deep pow and they floated as you would expect for a 120 under foot ski, didn't experience any tip dive. Skied them in less than ideal day chompy trees, and they were nimble/quick turning due to general swing weight. I climbed a peak just shy of 14K the other week and experienced some of the most wind blown/variable conditions I have had in years, and they held well and were confident under foot on the decent. Buzzed em around 1 inbounds day, and they were fun, buttery, and able to spin around off natural hits easily. Overall I was very pleased with my purchase last fall.
