The coomback is lighter weight, that being the only real advantage over the sidestash. The sidestash has metal but also has more rocker so the hardpack performace is fairly even between the two. The coomback is more for long ski tours, ski mountaineering and basically for the place the sidestash cannot easily get to. If you are skiing at a resort or just doing shorter tours, the way to go is unquestionably the sidestash.

The Coomback has a softer tip and no metal. It would be a better ski in softer and/or fresher snow.
