Here is what Im looking for. Cant find it, maybe someone has an idea about next years dimensions or maybe a indie brand I havent though to look at. I live in the midwest, where skiing is hell. I dig rails.

-180 cm long

-94-100 underfoot

-True twin

-Mustache profile (rocker, camber, rocker)

I would prefer it to be softer. Weight isnt an issue.

Skis I have ridden:

OG Solomon 1080s

Line Anthems

Line Invaders

Moment Rockers

-I dig my rockers, but am having a tough time setting an edge when I want to carve. No camber limits my ability on super icy days...

Skis I have considered:

ON3P Filthy Rich (Too skinny)

K2 iron maiden (doesnt have the mustache profile)

Line Anthem (No early rise in tip/tail)

Liberty Antigen - Still a bit skinny...

Moment Frankenski (?)- Supposedly a true twin with the dirty stasche profile, but I havent seen any pics or dimensions. Anyone help me out?

Leading the pack are surface One Times. They fit the criteria, but sound a tad stiff, and I have heard that surface may have durability issues. Can anyone offer any suggestions for other skis, or opinions or anything really. Thnaks dudes.

 
awesome suggestions. while none of them are TT, those are all super nice skis. I wouldnt have thought to look at Fatypus, so thanks for the heads up
 
not necessarily park skis and may be kinda stiff, but i've heard a lot of good stuff about the k2 kung fujas (102 underfoot)
 
i realize that haha, but I know what I want, and im hoping to get it. so far its just the one times, but i might be missing one or two other options.
 
bump.

just realized Surface One Times only come in 173 (dafuq?!) so Im back to the drawing board. Anyone heard anything about the Moment Frankenskis? Also, new frontrunner might be the El Dente. Thanks for ideas, you guys are the coolest
 
Pretty sure El Dante doesn't have a symmetrical camber profile though.

What you're looking for may be impossible to find anywhere other than Surface right now. I have heard that they fixed their durability the past two years or so though.
 
halos and alpha 1's will be wider next year if that was your issue with them... only 92 though and not symmetrical. but they are tip and tail rockered skis
 
OP, by true twin do you mean a symmetrical ski like the K2 Domain or a "directional twin" like the iron maiden and any armada?
 
Line Blends and Rossi Scimitars are two I didn't see mentioned. The Scimitars don't have rocker camber rocker but they do get excellent reviews as an all conditions ski.
 
yes, I mean a symmetrical ski (like the domain) with park rocker. I realize the el dente isnt symmetrical, but it meets the waist and rocker specifications.

Ugh i was so bummed to learn the One Times only come in 173. Such a bummer!

THanks for all the suggestions ddues!
 
Well the waist doesn't fit it but ill post anyways.

Epic planks vaporizer. 117-93-117 with the rocker camber rocker combo. And from what I understand is that they are fairly soft.
 
glad i could help! ive heard great things about them, i was gonna buy a pair for this year but my domains are getting warrantied but i might anyways!
