Moment M1 Alpine Ski

5 Star Rating

Stiff boards that haul ass

By Backcountry.com Vendor Rep Ranked #2 - Alpine Fat Skis September 16, 2008

I skied the 192cm non-rockered version of the M1 last year. It's a very stiff ski that isn't forgiving (stiffer than a vintage 194 Dynastar Legend Pro). If you're not on your game and don't have strong legs, you will get tossed around and head inside for an early round of beers. Mount them up on the suggested line. Although these are NOT powder skis (I can't stress that enough), if you want more versatility, get the rockered version which will allow you to ski moderate levels of deep snow.

Technically speaking there is not "rockered version" of the M1... that is another ski entirely--the Garbone. The M1 is a non-rockered ski (well described in the reviews and remarks on this page). The Garbone is the M1 with a rocker. Hopefully this clears up the confusion.
