Can't decide

[asdffff123]

This whole season I have been riding on 4frnt devastator 181 and they were just too big and heavy. I'm 5'9 120 lbs and I am a playful kind of skier. So I looked into moment and found the deathwish, meridian, and the wildcat 108. They recommended the wildcat 108 for any kind of day even in the park but I don't know anyone who has skied it. Advice?

Look into demo-ing directly from Moment. Where do you live?

I've never heard a bad word against the wildcat/bibby but have no firsthand knowledge.

do squats, ride your bicycle long distance and always make sure to make everyday "leg day" and then maybe your little chicken legs will have the muscular fortitude to keep up with your skiing

Can't go wrong with any i believe

- meridian: if you liked full rocker but want a slightly lighter devastator

- wildcat: read its a bit heavier for its kind but makes it damp and versatile

- deatwish: favors floatation, softer flex and seems great in most conditions

I live in the valley and on the big mountain squaw team. I'm just trying to see if anyone has skied any three of these to give a little insight

I did a demo day on most of the Moments (but not the Meridian). I'm not a fat boy, and I don't need super stiff skis. I love my Wildcat tours (116 and 108). I skied the new standard 108, and I didn't like it at all. Too stiff for my tastes, and yet I really enjoy PB&J and the standard Wildcat. I also tried the Deathwish, and learned pretty quickly that I'm not into that ski.
