It is a stiff ski, but not demanding, it is a light ski but not wimpy or gets deflected.
Thanks that's very helpful and clear.

If you like what you demo'd, you're done shopping. I have a pair of 184 '15-'16 98's.... great ski, but need to wear my big boy pants for sure. I haven't skied the 17-18 yet. If it's a bit softer, I'm sure they'll be even better... for me at least.
After Demoing the Monster 98's (177cm) I want them. Such an awesome ski for me. Felt intuitive, responsive and I didn't have to think, it just worked. The question is whether I should get the 184cm or the 177cm. I own the 88's in 184cm and like them but the 177's might be better for the trees.
If the Titans came with the PRX12 binding try moving both the toe and heel one or two notches forward you may not catch the tip and because the binding is so easy to reposition you could always move it back.Skied the Titans today for the first time at Sugarbush. Natural snow and machine groomed man made snow. They are very smooth, friendly, and responsive, and I am gonna really like them once I recover more from my various injuries. The latest injury is a sprain of my right peroneal tendon/ligament — it is hampering my ability to tip my right foot when making right turns. Caught a tip 3 times at the same point in the turn and went down. Ugh to that.
Yes it is the prx 12 binding and I guess that it is worth a shot. I know that they are easy to adjust, but I have never done it on these bindings. I assume that it is pretty self explanatory when I look at them...If the Titans came with the PRX12 binding try moving both the toe and heel one or two notches forward you may not catch the tip and because the binding is so easy to reposition you could always move it back.
Yes, very easy a lever on the toe and a lever on the heel. The track that they sit on is labeled with BSL sizes. If your binding was set up correct the center line on the boot should match the mounting line on the ski, look at the boot when it is in the binding before you start and move the toe and the heel the same amount. I have the same bindings on my Head Rally and I think I moved them up a notch. It works better on the east coast hard pack/ice.Yes it is the prx 12 binding and I guess that it is worth a shot.

That sounds like a miserable injury. Hope you heal quickly, especially since ski season is upon us.Skied the Titans today for the first time at Sugarbush.

Moved the bindings up a notch today - it sure seemed to do the trick. It may be another day on the snow, placebo effect, or maybe it is just amazing what a 2mm adjustment would do, but I will take it!Yes, very easy a lever on the toe and a lever on the heel.

Thanks! I am working on it!That sounds like a miserable injury. Hope you heal quickly, especially since ski season is upon us.
Mounting them back can give you a bit more power...but this ski on the line, is just fine.Just bought the Kore 93s at a local end of winter sale and while I’ve only gotten to test them in early spring conditions out here in the northeast, I absolutely love them. @Philpug you recommend mounting them back 1cm and I’m just curious why you felt that. 2 days on them isn’t much but I didn’t feel the need to change the mounting point at all.. but then again I didn’t get them into any powder yet so I can’t really speak to that.
