Lack of alpine skis mentioned

Ever wonder why absolutely no one from the old site is here? Because this is a XCD site. There was a much more modern-telemark oriented crowd at Mitch's site and they had, almost to a person, moved on from "telemark specific" skis long before Mitch passed and the site closed down. That's not even slightly debatable.

Show some fucking respect and if you can't manage that, at least know the history of what you're now trying to cravenly appropriate.

Donald, I know a little more than what you imagine thank you.

I have not. But it's ironic that you would mention that ski because there was an entire thread that lived for years on the old site dedicated to the DPS Wailer.

Would love to read it. What were the key takeaways? Rad or bad?

Looking at your picture you posted, are you in Switzerland (up above Murren in the photo, perhaps?)?
I'm not sure you can go wrong. They seem like quality skis.
Blistergear usually has informative analyses of skis, at least from the standpoint of flex, mounting point, etc. Actual ski reviews are always subjective, though.

Good call! That’s actually Zinal. Living here now but from Tahoe.

I think those would rock either location.
How'd you manage to sneak into Switzerland?

Awesome. Here for wife’s work. I’m on dad duty which takes any touring off the table for us, hence the alpine ski search.

My wife and I love it there!
We usually just hike or bike in the fall.
