Im interested in the MR 171s and i dont know anything about them, if anyone has skied last years bluehouse or this years i was wondering how they skied. I mainly skis park and since i live in the midwest i'm not going to get much pow, but i do ski around the mountain quite a bit. Before i had 171 ar6 and liked them a lot, how they skied and size, and wanted to stay with something similar.
 
last years are known for chipping easly, but next years will probabley be better. there is something like 2 review on them, if you havent read those already, and they are light too, because of their bamboo cores. my freind just got a pair of the older ones, and when i flexed them they felt nice and soft. no one has riden the new ones, but they have to be an improvment. they are stiff in the tail, not made out of bamboo, and are less prone to brakage, as i said above.
sorry about bad spelling/ grammer!
karma?
 
The new MRs still have a bamboo core but are reinforced with carbon fiber stringers. We have used a new topsheet that prevents chipping and looks better too.

There are a few local riders that have been on the new MRs. I'll see if I can get them to write a review on here.

 
there you have it, from the guys themselfves, and the site said some weird name for the core, so i wasnt shure if it still had bamboo, sry guys
 
incase you dont read my other post, they will only sell a certain amount of skis for that price, so deal wont last long at all
 
i'll write a review on them, check my profile in an hour or so, but basically they're sick skis, super poppy and fun to ride and next years should be dope, exactly what we all asked for with stronger topsheets and stiffer tails
 
does anyone know how the flex on the mr's is comparable to the ar6. just wondering because some people have said they are stiff while others said soft
