Do you like the Line Outline or the Benchelters more?
Click to expand...

They are both great, playful and float like a boat. I will say I think the outlines are a bit less stiff and easier to hold a butter

Terrible vision and smudged up old glasses at the moment lol

I cannot tolerate smudged glasses! Must be clean! I say, "Lovely don't touch the lenses!"

Serious though......I can't see it. Maybe down at the bottom? Maybe you have seen them before.
 
Interested in this answer as well. There’s a pretty good thread on TGR about meridian mount points. I got a pair this off-season and had them mounted rec, hoping it was the right choice...

I have them at the furthest forward factory mount.(I think that's -3.5)

Recommended will be okay, just not as switch friendly.

They rip! Soo much fun.

Word I wasn’t trying to be sarcastic or anything just pointing out the “line” on tips and tails. I didn’t know what they were either

I think homie accidentally said third from right instead of third from left. Third from right are Line EPs, but the silver ones third from left are Revisions.

These are the jibbiest pow ski I've ever owned. They're so much fun, but don't charge super hard

Yeah that's exactly what I always heard! Never tried em myself but I had the talismans and liked them quite well
 
Nah no worries at all. I realized my original comment got downvoted so in case people thought I was trying to be a sarcastic know-it-all, I was just confused on which ski. No harm no foul! Enjoy your Saturday night bro

Rossignol scratch 180 - decommissioned first twins and were next seasons at the time. (So sick bro)

Armada pipe cleaners 181/Jesters - decommissioned

K2 Maiden Ak's 179 - decomissioned first pow skis, when 105 under foot was huge

K2 Sideshow 181/hammerheads - First/only pair of teles for cruiser days. There really is something about that turn.

Faction 3.0 183/Look pivot 14 - Dailies/favorite ski ever. Love these for just about everything.

Faction Agent 100 179/Duke - Tour setup.

K2 Pontoon McConkey 179/ Look pivot 14 - Special skis for special days. Very rarely come for out preservation reasons and the fact they simply aren't called for often but so fun when they do. I swear the playful nature of that guy is embodied in these things. Stupid fun in the deep.

4FRNT MSP 107s 187/Look pivot 14 - Were going to replace my dailies but not really stoked on them and 4Frnts guarantee is BS. Skied 5 ish days on them. For Sale!

It's not too often that they're all together at the same time. So nice to have the kids home for the holidays.

R -> L

>189 BG - Pow basher and crud smasher.

>193 Cochise - Daily driver.

>191 Enforcer 104 w/ CAST - New this year. Bought them after I broke the MB116. Gotten a few days on them and so far I dig em.

>187 Menace 98 - For when everything hurts and my legs feel like noodles. And the occasional rail.

>193 Cochise - backup for my daily driver.

>192 Supernatural 115 - Former daily, currently a house decoration. On the DL with a crunched sidewall.

>186 Wrenegade 112 - ripped two Shift toes out of these so they're toast with Swiss cheese on top. Claim to fame: Mentioned by Iggy and Cody on the Blister pod.

>186 Mindbender 116 - Started the season mounted with CAST and a bright future as a touring rig. Unfortunately they quickly found their way out of the starting lineup and onto the DL with dual blown edges and a compound fracture to the core. Not the kind of injury you want to see a rookie take in October.

+2 pairs of blades because nobody should blade alone.

Lol on owning the famous shift/on3p skis discussed so many places! they do look kinda sad.

Maybe your a candidate for some bindingfreedom/quiverkiller inserts? they make 15mm versions... :D
 
Good eye. They are extremely dried out and were ridden on concrete at the end of last season. Haven't waxed them in a couple years. :'( I will give them some TLC now.

The Prester’s are one of the best full camber skis I’ve ridden, super durable too!

IDK, but if you are riding concrete, then maybe no need.

No really though, if there is still some life in them, give them some love!
 
I believe they have plenty life left in them. Going to ptex the base and give them a fresh wax/sharpen job. The concrete was not intentional, but necessary to reach my wife in the parking after a long day of skiing and drinking. Not taking off my skis was a huge oversight looking back. ;). Wish I had a cooler jib related story.

They are. I haven't skied them yet. Hoping to soon. Not much snow here in SW MI right now. I am told from a couple people who have them that they are awesome. But I cannot speak from my own experience. They seem very playful when you flex them by hand.

I use a sharp metal scraper on stuff like that. Then a long base bevel, the steel scrape hard again. You need to peel away the top dried up layer so the have a chance to take some wax again. Good luck.

Word, I’m sure you will love them! I had the TI version a few seasons ago and loved them, though they were really heavy as with most of Armada’s skis it seems. Loved the shape of them, hopefully they bring them back!
 
Thanks for the tips. Will make sure to do that. Hoping the base takes the wax well once cleaned and ground.
