Dynastar Legend Big Dump Ski

Item #DYN0346 | 11 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Nice to see some reverse camber from Dynastar

By Ranked #850 - Big Mountain Freeride Skis October 19, 2009

Usually I am a Prorider and XXL addict. Got to use a pair of the Dumps on a cat trip last winter in boot-top to thigh deep snow. They ride smooth and fast, extremely stable. Dynastar nailed the shape and dimensions. The tip rides just above the surface, and when you lay them over for a big arcing powder turn they do exactly what you want. Great platform for landings. I am 6'7" and 210 lbs, so I wish they had gone with a stiffer tip - once in a while when plowing through crud or deeper heavier snow the tip would flex backwards too much killing your flow, that was my only complaint. When I loaned them to a lighter guy, he loved them unconditionally. Great ski, but here's hoping they come out with a stiffer (possibly lighter) version next year.

Yep...they are working on their shapes/camber and rocker as we speak! Some great stuff on the horizon!

They put an early rise on the new XXL, the '10-11 Pro Rider 115. I think they did they same with the new Big Dump as well, plus trimmed some weight down as well.
