I got a pair of Line Supernaturals 108 186 brand new for 300 bucks shipped last year. Seems like what you are after.
Have got 5 days on the monster 108s so far.
First observation is recommended mount point is far back. This leaves a fair bit of tips to drive which is not particularly easy since there is not much rocker.
There is really not enough rocker imo for even 6 inches of soft snow.
They do ski well on modest grades, but are too tough to drive in steep chop.
Overall, not impressed, prefer the cochise by a wide margin.
I may try and have them remounted 1cm forward and see if that improves things.
Saw a person on Teton asking about Monster 98 mounts and wondering if they could mount them a touch forward. Here is the response one poster gave.
“No experience on 98 monsters. But I have 108s mounted +2. And old 103s mounted +3. IME recommended mounting point from head is very traditional. I'd go at least +1.”
Update.....
After thinking hard bout it for a couple weeks, I had them remounted at plus 2.0. They are now mounted about same as my blizzard cochise.
They ski great now. No more problems driving the tips on the steeps, just comfortably hauling ass. Hard to believe but it really made all the difference for me.
I just think they did not pick a good recommended mount point. But I am quite happy now.
glad it worked out!Update.....
