Has anybody out there tried a Czar next to an Obsethed? There are a lot of Obsethed reviews but not many Czar reviews.

the obsethed has rocker in tip and tail where as the czar is just the tip. on firm snow, the contact point extends to the tail of the czar but only to 20 cm from the tail of the obsethed, so your stance is very centered on the k2 and more back on the czar. the tail releases more easily at the end of the turn on the k2 (nice going slower but a little squirly at speed). much shorted radius sidecut on the k2 than the czar, which is very noticeable on both soft and firm snow. persponally I like a shorter radius side cut on hard snow and a longer radius on soft & variable snow.
