twoowt's dyed sticks shape n rocker profile may just be the most beautiful thing I've ever laid my eyes upon. I can confidently say that these sticks are my dream sticks but at this point in time, I'm unable to put forth the money and effort required to find a way to get them to the US. Does anyone know of skis similar in shape that I could fairly easily obtain in the US?

Yeah they look similar to reckoners, though I'd caution against them as they blow out hella fast

yeah I’ve heard some stories abt them. I was thinking maybe revolt 104s would be a next best option?

Those are probably a good choice, I've seen quite a few people on them and the Volkl team seems to use them a lot.

they were pretty much just a straight copy of the old candide 2.0. the new mana 2.0 or the prodigy 2/3 might be quite close.
would also like to mention the bdogs and majesty dirty bear

my current skis are bdogs but the sidewall collapsed within the first couple of months riding them. Super fun ski, just not sure I want to get them again. I’d agree that the Candides were pretty similar but I think it might be a lost cause trying to get a pair now. The other ski I was looking at is the surface upper and I think they look pretty similar. might end up going w those but not 100% sure yet
