How much does it need to snow for the Banana? 6 inches? The Banana get the call
I have the surfy, pivoty end covered. I want the get into the front of my new/used 140 Rossignol Hero boots I scored here and plow through shit. Or maybe lay down some sick carves with my arms spread real wide cause that's how you lay down trenches or some shit. I'll probably wear a US ski team beret if the carves go well.

I feel it’s almost more of a snow water content thing with the nanners. If it’s the slightest bit creamy, they are the funnest ski I’ve ever been on. Why oh why did I sell my 186? Dumbass.

Interesting comments regarding the Banana. From what I can remember I think they’re floatier in dry and heavy snow than 4FRNT Renegades but maybe not quite as fast and fun in untracked heavy snow, wind effect or if there is any crust. CBs are way more fun in chop and firmer conditions and so much easier on the legs for a powder day at the resort. They need to plane up a bit to float but once they do I haven’t found any tip dive so ski faster, ya beaters

Yeah, there are 4-5 pairs of 184 DW104s vs 0 190s. When I look at the amount of rocker on my 190 DW112s, the effective edge is about the same as my 5'2" wife's skis so I'm trying to figure out what I'm missing in why people would size down to 184. I read a review by Cy Whitling where he said he skis both the 104 and 112DW at 184cm and he's 6'1", 200 lbs (and I'm sure a better skier than me). It's messing with my brain some as I can pay full pop for 190s or grab a cheaper used pair of 184 104s to try out.

I skied the 193 FR110s and they were phenomenal skis. They were more maneuverable and held an edge a bit better than Wildcat 108s. I was mounted -2 from recommended on the FR110s, and I could still feel the tail behind me, that was their only flaw.
I think the Wildcats are more steadfast, their predictability is so good. Also Wildcats have that camber pop. Sizing is also perfect for me, 188.Xcm true length.
The R110 does seem like it would get rid of that “tail sensation” I had with the FR. However I have a lot of chargers in the 108-112 widths (Katana 108, Monster 108, Sender Squad), and the FR varies up my quiver more being significantly more playful than Wildcat 108s.
Oh man those Lange/Rossi 140s are sporty! I tried on the new ones this season and I was really impressed. I almost bought a pair last week, but my Raptors fit so well.
And just like that, I want CBs again.

Comparing the dwt and the dw104 and the resort. The dwt seems to get along fine at slower speeds and the dw104 doesn’t, dw104 prefers to be at moderate to fast speeds. Is this just me? Is this because of the touring core? Dwt has probably 20 days, dw104 has 2 days

How much do you weigh? I just bought a 2nd pair of DW112s in 190 yesterday to let one of my pairs be an early season, don't stress about rocks, skis. What you said above is the only thing making me consider the 184s as I do plan to use them in steep, tight chutes. My 190 Dw112s never feel long in tight trees or chutes but that's because I'm often times skiing deeper snow which inherently helps control speed. 104s would be more for days in between storms of when we get 6" or less so it's possible 184s could work. But that would be shorter than even my flat tailed carving skis so I'm trying to wrap my mind around this. I have the Summer to iron this out depending upon what deals I find on used 104s, could end with both lengths to compare. My 15 y/o is 6'1" but only 160 so if 184s were too short for me, they could work for him given his weight.
