Re: Anyone with Experience Skiing Summitcone Scales?

@fisheater Please report back if you mount them. Do you have the Scale Vagabond 97 skis? @Wingman25 Looks like you have a dream kit with the 106 and TTS transit! Share some pics if you can. Thanks for the camber info. I'm surprised you're switching to skins at a 15-degree slope. From my readings, (...

Re: Anyone with Experience Skiing Summitcone Scales?

I have 174 cm Vagabond 106 BC/TTS Transit and use it for ascending/descending low angle quick hits and descending more moderate 20 to 35 degree slopes in the backcountry. I use skins on anything greater than 15 or so degrees on the up. I measured camber at 6mm. I have not used any other scaled ski.

Re: K2 Mindbender 99Ti, Anybody Ski Them.

I'm wearing Crispi Evo's and the new TX Pro's. I have yet to break in the Pro's and hope the cuffs and bellows start ...

Re: K2 Mindbender 99Ti, Anybody Ski Them.

Long story short. I have a pair I bought last year for alpine then decided to go full boat tele and mount outlaws on them. Skied one day on them, pulled the Outlaws off and mounted them up on Summitcone Exile 106's. It may have something to do with the long tail rocker the K2's have. Anyhow, with mo...

Re: Summitcone Blitz 88

The Fey's service has been stellar. I called them a few weeks ago and ordered the Blitz's specifically for riding the hamster wheel. This, after mounting K2 mindbender 99ti's with Outlaws and attempting to ski them on hard snow. " It wasn't pretty" (Rene Martin). I'll try the K2's in snow and see ho...

Re: Summitcone Blitz 88

Thanks Fisheater. I am enjoying learning telemark and making unpredictable turns while having fun. Regarding my age, I haven't had my growth spurt yet so I look and act much younger.
