Nothing out of the ordinary. Feel pretty similar to the Mindbender 116C in terms of flex pattern, but the 122 has a more symmetrical flex pattern (i.e., softer tails than the 116). Just a nice flex pattern with fairly soft tips and tails but a very supportive midsection. The 102 is by far the softest of the new line.

Mid season this year release not happening for these? Reaaaly want those 102’s

Kingpin is also getting an update on the toe piece... same as v-werks.

Tbh, Marker is really at the top of the touring game right now. 3 different platforms for different skiers/terrain. Alpinist for alpinists, Kingpin for freetour, and Duke thing for 50/50 and burly freetour. I know people have qualms about the Kingpin but I love mine. They tour great and feel pretty alright on the down, I’ll probably upgrade to the new lighter ones.

One of the funnest skis I’ve ever had! These things are feathers which I’ve personally never really experienced with a ski this wide. They also didn’t chatter on high speed groomers which was awesome. They have a little less rocker in the tail ( shown pretty well in the photo) which help them respond and charge.

I’m very used to having a ski that will crush through crud and crust, which isn’t exactly the case with these on account of their weight, but they just float in soft snow and are the easiest things to whip around in the air which makes for a very fun ski for booters outside the park.

How would you compare them to the Catamaran?
 
All the high end atomic and dalbello boots have GW standard. I thought it was bs shit until I put mine on. its legit for sure. I could run a marathon in em now

Good to see GW confirmed across the Look line. Not that I'd buy a GW boot but it's nice...

For those in the know - is k2 ditching asym all together next season?

Yes they are thankfully! The new reckoner series replaces the marksman and catamaran!

Dear gawd, it’s fucking ispo already, and NS mods are deleting shit like a bunch of bottom bitches hoping for a couple small scraps from the industry plate.

literally everything posted is available on other sites and much of it in accordance with brand’s release times...

My favorite banning of all time was when Line pics were being modded:

This is correct. There are no asymmetrical ski constructions for next season. The graphics on the Reckoner series (and some others) are specific for a left and right foot but there is no difference construction wise.

Symmetry...So hot right now. Almost revolutionary.
 
Gotta say after seeing the Menace mounted with the new purple Forza pivots it makes me miss when Dynastar and look used to to that back in the day like the trouble makers and matching bindings.

yeah dude dynastar used to have like half of the sickest pros on their team. since then they've stopped marketing like that but they still make amazing skis

still got my Troublemaker P12 Jibs, i actually still use them
 
The new menace skiers are money though. Love the Permin pro and 108... plus the raw coloured pivot coming out

totally. i'm considering a pair of Menace 98s right now, and those gold p15s are fire, def want some of those at some point
 
Black Crows Justis. 100mm twin with 2 sheets of titanal. It’s pictured alongside the Enforcer 100 and new Cochise, if that’s what it’s being compared to then I’m very interested. First Black Crow that has me really excited.

I might have to try one of those new tongue liners in my First Chair 10s. Narrow calves and wraps liners aren't the best combo. Hopefully they sell them separately.

Intuition Pro Tongues. I bought a pair last year for my touring boots, very stiff and very supportive for small calves.

I like the laces on them. I was just looking at them on intuitions website. I guess I might have to pick some up. Scared of sizing though.
