I'm new here and I wanted to get some advice on those two models to compliment my salomon q labs.
Not the only person.Hi
So I have skied a 183cm and190cm Q-lab have owned the old brahma since before it was available to public and currently own a 185cm Enforcer E93 and a 180cm Blizzard Brahma Carbon I would go so far to say I am probably the only person that actually owns those 2 skis right now. The E93 are mounted -1 from the line and Brahma are mounted +.5 from the line. The ramp angle on the binding is equal.
This review will be totally bias. Ill be honest I keep trying to like the Brahmas but beside REALLY tight bumps and luged out tree runs I am not sure if its better at anything for me, and I keep reaching for my E93. this despite the fact I owned a Brahma for 4 years and I honestly think its really good ski. The E93 to me just feel more planted in more snow conditions than the Brahma and seems to hook up easier into the turn and will carve on even ice where the Brahma tail seems to be washy to me. In crud the length and tip profile of the E93 just let it charge though and you can really work the ski and get it to arc and slice though, where as the Blizzard seems much harder to balance on. I am going to keep trying to love the Brahma and as I type this they are awaiting a tune to see if I can make the ski work for me.
Soot me a PM with your address and I wil get stickers out to you. I put Pivot12's on them.Reason I ask is I'm going to have the same brahmas as you Phil (shop employee). Pretty much committed to them before I heard about the E93 already hitting shops.
What binding did you put on them? Can I get some of those stickers?
the enforcer front contract point pulls me into a turn much quicker in any type of turn.
Interesting. Is is the tighter turn radius? I personally find the Enforcer to be a bit myre playful because of the tighter radius and the softer flex when allows the ski to come into the turn easier.So here is what is interesting Although I feel the new Brahma is better than old one. I feel that even on the hardest of ice that the enforcer front contract point pulls me into a turn much quicker in any type of turn. If picked a ski just biased on its hardpack performance today I would pick the E93.
