the 190 (which I have) is stiffer than last year's 175 and the people I spoke with who got to ski it for Volkl (200lb guys) clled it rock solid stable at speed, so I pulled the trigger when I received it, I checked the flex, which I would agree is Gotama-stiff all around, which I think is...

I bought EG5's this year as a spare to oakley A-frames and they performed really well...I was very satisfied with them some of you might be interested in the Evogear deal I ran across below for the larger EG1's $45 - 66 http://www.evogear.com/Snowboard%20Shop/Electric/item_1014_248.aspx

but for an "all powder" ski, there are better sticks out there, which you have been mentioned

I love my Mantra's mounted 1.5cm back from the line (makes a huge difference in how it skis) super stable, able to carve hardpack, a great all around ski, especially for Tahoe where we get Sierra cement and long periods in between storms the sidecut works because it doesn't flare in the tail...

some have experienced broken heels on them....fyi http://www.tetongravity.com/forums/showthread.php?t=43311&highlight=broken

totally agree, especially with the '07 Mantra's awful neon graphics glad I got the all black ninja Volkl quiver before they let the K2 people run wild on the topsheets ;-)

seems like the new '07 Gotama could begin to canibalize the Mantra line with this new shape and profile, at least out West I just bought one of the remaining pairs of 190 black Got's from this year because the lack of sidecut and the medium-to-stiff flex is perfect for powder the way it is now...

www.untracked.com sells wide brakes for 916's email them and see if they can hook you up

trying to decide to buy this year's or wait

sounds like too much room to make up.... but those solutions I suggested are really cheap, so you could give them a try and see if they work most bootfitters also sell them so you don't even have to order them from Tognar, just ask for them by name at the local shop to save on shipping/taxes
