Anyone know the sidecut dimensions of Karhu Switchbacks I have a chance to buy a pr for $120 shipped. Curious if they are close to my 10th mountain tour skis.

According to this expired Japanese (?) ad, from one picture it looks like 76-60-66

Sounds like the old version of 10th Mountain... There is at least 2 different molds for that ski alone. And I realized that Karhu was also changing names of their skis along the way when I visited the barn of one of its founder (a guy that worked in r&d) in Saint-Féréol. For exemple, the Dorado was also a 10th Mountain (new, with an old mold). Hard to follow...

That's what I'm thinking as well. Find out in a few days as I bought them. Can never have to many pr of skis in your quiver
