?2020 cage match comparison requests

[TimF]

I haven’t seen a separate thread for 2020 cage match requests.
Here’s my first wish:
2019 Stockli SR 95 vs 2020 Stockli SR 95 vs 2020 Kastle FX 96 HP
Love the Stockli but I am drooling over the new Kastle.
Here’s to Winter.

We are working on them.

Wooo, so many awesome options to look forward to. Hoping there’s a “front-biased all mountain” match in the works. Kendo 88 vs Enforcer 88 vs Brahma 88 vs ??? (could be a crowd).

2020 DPS Wailer 100 Tour versus 2020/19 Volkl Mantra V-Works, please.

 

[Tom K.]

Three-way, if you please:

Kendo
Enforcer 88
Brahma

Snow!

 

[Swede]

The Bold against the rest.

 

[Cheizz]

These three Blizzard skis all share sidecut, radius and sizing, but have different constructions:

Firebird Competition 76 (2 layers of Titanal)
Firebird HRC (2 layers of Titanal + C-Spine + C- Armor)
Quattro RS 76 (2 layers of Titanal + C-Spine + C- Armor + Carbon Booster + Full Suspension)

A nice opportinity to do a deep dive on construction (that being the only difference to these skis). Ik will try and do such a comparison myself when I ski them in November.

Salomon S Max Blast against ANY other hard snow carver. (I think It’s that good).

 

[Swede]

Ok seriously
Bold vs Deacon 84 vs Fischer 86 GT

I'd like to request some men's vs. women's cage matches...

For personal interest, I'm most interested in these two....
Santa Ana 88 vs. Enforcer 88
Black Pearl 88 vs. Brahma 88

You're going to find a bigger difference between the BP 88 and Brahma 88 than the Bushwacker 88.

Hard to do in that I don't think any of us got on both the mens and womens versions of these.

That’s what I was guessing. More curious on what the differences are and the implications of those differences...stiffer torsionally and laterally or just in one dimension? Easier to release from turns? Easier to carve hardpack? Easier to pivot?

Hard to do in that I don't think any of us got on both the mens and womens versions of these.

Figured it didn’t hurt to ask, just in case someone did get on both. I know it’s tough to line up a comparison like that with demos, most reps won’t have the same sizes in men’s and women’s. Maybe it’s just something to keep in mind if you stumble upon the opportunity

We are working on them.

Stockli Laser AX vs Renoun Atlas 80
