Anyone selling any of these around the sizes 175-180 something. I Ski east coast , if there is anyother ski your selling , im looking to buy.
 
did i say anywhere in my post that he shouldnt buy them? No i didnt because maybe theres certain important reasons he wants those skis. Im just tryin to let him know that those skis arent similar. The karma you will find is an allmountain park ski that most people find to be quite stiff for just a park ski, also it is 87mm underfoot. The scratch fs are 84mm underfoot and super poppy and dont hold up well at high speed. Pretty much to be used as a park ski. The dumonts are are also a slopestyle ski but with this ski its has a wood core and beefed up construction so it can some other stuff outside the park. It handles ok at high speeds not as well as the karmas. So all in all if youre heavy and ski alot of other stuff besides park, go with the karma, if your light go with the dumont, and if you want a more park oriented ski get the scratch fs.
 
fair enough

but i have a slight problem with your concluding sentence. yes the karma is great all mnt, u dont have to be a light guy to ski on the dumont, its not like the 1080. and i think the scratch FS is great all mountain, not just in the park. i would say that the dumont is the most park oriented ski up there.
 
i can see where youre coming from saying that...the reason i said what i did was because the dumont can hit the rest of the mountain quite well as compared to the scratch fs that is kind of shitty outside the park due to the chatter among other things. So yes i agree the dumont might be the better park ski but its also a good all around park and mountain ski which the scratch is not.
 
i think that the scrathc is great out of the park. i havent skiied the dumont, but i have the scratch. its not that chattery at speeds. it depends on the length too. but i think that its god. but what year are we talking about? im talking about last years, but maybe he's looking into the WRS, whish is a differsnt ski, but same dimensions.
 
im 6'1 and i weigh 145-150 pounds i ski east coast. i want skis that will be pretty good for all mountain but i still want them to be good for park. what skis would be best for me?
 
i agree, the dumont is made with a wood core correct? if so then they are one of the few salomon skis made with a wood core these days.
