I am intrigued by the Titans. I followed @Lorenzzo ripping on them, and boy, did he dance with that mountain. He actually described them almost identically to the review by @FairToMiddlin . Amazing carvers that will take on variable snow with surprising versatlity.
Lorenzzo actually suggested those for me as I focus on improving my technique. I have Dynastar PTs 89 for soft snow.
He does prefer the previous (2015-2016?) Version of the titans though.
I looked online and didn't find any end of season blowout deals. But I will keep looking patiently.
I will also look into the competition. Are there any worthy competitors in that non-premium price range?
Thanks for any thoughts!
The incoming Titans are ridiculous, they possess versatility and good snow feel and excitement that is very hard to find in one ski, especially for less than Stockli money. I own the previous generation Rally, the narrower 77mm brother, and they do not quite compare (they're for sale, cheap!). If you are hoping for a carver that can stretch into off-piste, look no further, there isn't a non-premium (including its previous generation) ski that comes close.
Okay, the Blossom White Out is as good, but it is hard to find, and a bit more expensive...
