“I was looking for a lightweight touring ski - and the dynafit manaslu fit the bill. Paired with a Dynafit radial 2.0 binding this ski is very light and responsive. I've gotten to ski it inbounds in packed powder/ icy conditions and in some light powder in the backcountry. Its a bit chattery on ice, but performs well in the packed powder and light backcountry powder. Initially I was concerned being so light if it would ski drastically different than my other more traditionally weight skis, but I was pleasantly surprised the skis handle very well and are surprisingly stiff and responsive. Lots of fun - and a great touring set up for all around conditions.
The pre-cut skins are easy to use - and fit well!
Also I'm very pleased with customer service from Cripple creek!”
