Remember the Dynastar 4x4 series? I am not talking about the old Legend 4x4 that were the big mountain collection, but the upper 70-low 80mm 4x4’s? Still nothing? Don’t feel bad, neither does anyone else. The 4x4 were wide narrow skis while their replacement collection, the new M-Crosses are not just a narrow wide ski. Dynastar already has the M-Pro 85 and 90,
Enter the all new M-Cross 82, and its big brother the M-Cross 88. Compared to the M-Free and M-Pro, the M-Cross has as traditional of a tip shape as we have seen for a while in “M-“ collections and it really works here.
I am really partial to skis in this low 80mm segment and the M-Cross with its shape makes this Dynastar one of the more versatile offerings in this category. While the M-Cross 82 is available with the Look SPX Konnect system binding, I really think a lower to the deck hard mount Pivot or even the regular SPX will really enhance the M-Cross 82’s feel on snow and add to its versatility.
Insider Tip: Yeah, I said it, the right binding matters, Pivot is binding of choice here.
