Marksman's or Vision 108's

[artdamage]

I'm replacing my Shreditor 102's. They're 184 in length and i love them but they're pretty much in the graveyard. I'm looking at the Marksmans cause they come in the same length and people seem to like them. But the line visions look crazy fun. Is there a disadvantage to having a ski that light?

There are a lot of skis in between those two, they're sort of opposite ends of the spectrum. Why have you narrowed it down to those two skis in particular?

Where do you ski?

What skis have you liked or disliked in the past?

What are you hoping to get out of your next ski?

How big are you?

I narrowed it to those because I work for a website that sells some ski stuff and they are the ones in the 105-110 waist that I like and are available for employee purchase. I live in salt lake and ski PC, little cottonwood, and big cottonwood. This would be the ski between by park ski and my powder ski, for skiing all over the mountain, riding a bit of trees, side hits, the occasional kicker etc. I probably wont be hitting rails on them but i do want to be able to pop little 180's and 3's off stuff. I love the feel of my shreditor 102's and i like the qst 106 a lot too. I'm 6' tall, 165 lbs. Thanks

Don't get the Vision 108. It's an amazing touring ski and can be a good 50/50 ski for the right person, but if you're only skiing inbounds and not touring, there are loads of better options.

The Marksman should feel similar to the Shreditor but a bit more loose and surfy. It's probably the closest comparison to the Shreditor 102 right now. The new 19/20 SFB is also worth a look if you want something lighter and more playful but want more stability than the Vision 108.

Awesome thanks man! Those were the doubts I had about the Visions so I think the Marksmans are right for me. Shreditors with a little extra width and a looser feel sounds like exactly what I’m looking for.

Exactly what he said

Marksmans kinda replaces the shreditor and are a great playful all mountain ski

I almost bought visions to tour and use inbounds 50/50 but they are way too light and I wouldn’t wanna ski them outside of pow
