Could anyone give me input on Shreditor 102’s vs. Salomon Rocker1 100’s

[qazwsxedc34]

Thanks in advance. I just want to know how they are similar and how they are different. Which one of the two would be a great all-mountain east coast ski?

both are very soft skis so if you ski hard and like charging down the mountain id stay away from them

id say go with the salomons over the shreditors. I've never skied either but i've always fancied the whole rocker2 series

They both feel very differnt. The k2 feels muc more like a fatter soft park ski. They were ok and pretty damp but I just find them a little heavy and a bit uninspiring. They are easy to get away with mistakes on but you won't be charging on them.

The rocker 100 feel pretty differnt. It's stiffer and has more pop and just feels more solid overall. They weigh a little less and I prefer the almost give point shape to help reduce swing weight. They feel like a slightly stiffer kettle in my opinion. They would be my choice of the two but I prefer a slightly stiffer ski so I can push a bit more.

Thanks, I have SFB’s and find them fun and moderately stiff under fit but I need something more aggressive for all-mountain east coast.

Are the Salmon Rocker2 108’s or maybe the Line sick day 110’s or supernatural 108’s a good choice for a more aggressive ski for the east?

I was a big fan of the sick days. They carve well and certainly feel stable so they could be a good choice. I have not skied the supernatural unfortunatly.

The rocker 108 is an interesting one its more a naroow pow ski and rides much more like a floaty surfy ski. They are certainly not a charger on groomers but can be a ton of fun to mess about on

The SFB’s are pretty surfy, would they be similar to the Salomon 108’s.

For Jay peak pow and for aggressive tree skiing would you pick the Salomon 108s or Sick days?

No the sfb has a much softer feel throughout and its early rise rather then rocker. The 108 has a large symetrical rocker tacken from the rocker 122. This larger rocker means salomon can keep the ski overall stiffer but you will still get as good if not better float as the sfb. They will feel differnt as the rocker has a shorter effective edge so a shorter turn radius and just feeling like a snappier ski which you can pivot really easily. The larger rocker and short edge do make them less ideal as a charger and makes them a much better playfull option.

Ahh, so the Rocker2 100 has a completely different rocker profile than the Rocker2 108?

I know that the SFB has a very short turn radius like 17m in 184cm, I’m hoping the 108 isn’t anything less.

Hmm, what do you think about Blizzards skis in the 100-110cm range?

the shreditor is 2mm wider under the foot than the salomon

i like sick days and supernaturals but they ski very differently fasho. the sick days ski like a pow ski that can carve really well which is my preference for an all mountain ski. while the supernaturals are a carving ski that holds its own in the pow. on a your general ice coast day i would pick the supernatural its got great edge control and and its surprisingly nimble in the trees. while for out west i would easily pick the sickday for the more variable conditions.

now on your enquiry about blizzards, i love blizzards. i honestly think they are some of the better skis on the market. the cochise and bonafide are two of my favorite skis ever. the flex is perfect and chargey and they are just so damn stable at high speeds that it blows my mind. i would recommend these over any skis mentioned so far they destroy every condition on any slope. im a cochise guy because i ski mostly out west and love a wider waist, but damn either of those skis are exactly what you are asking for
