I had a pair of Lasers for a bunch or seasons, and I eventually wore through the rubber and plastic underneath the outer bottom edges of the toe sockets so that the metal was wearing. That went on for a couple of seasons, but the metal on the bottom of the toe sockets was getting thinner and thinner and I though they might fail. I ended up selling the boots cheap to a guy who was going to use them with Fritchis. Now I have Dave resole my AT boots whenever I where through the rubber and get into the plastic under the toe sockets. You can get much more life out of them that way.

I read some nice reviews of last year's 10.0's but heard they were adding wood (extra weight) to them and that the Mustagh Ata's would be lighter and should ski better anyway (from a Dynafit rep.). My Mustagh Ata's arrived weighing more than advertised (7#4 oz) in the 178 cm ski. Not bad for a big ski but a lot more than previously advertised (mid 6# range). The skis have been fantastic, but I have always wondered how the 10.0's ski. (Perhaps a bit softer flex?) Based on the flex (stiff) and size, the Ata's should ski all conditions well, which is what I have experienced so far. I think it is a fantastic backcountry quiver ski, but I have often wondered how the 10.0's ski.... My two cents, Erik Lou,

I was so excited to hear that Dynafit is so comitted to a "non-main-stream" area of skiing. After the mis-hap with dynafits 12 din binding, I was worried about direction of the company. I have been lossing sleep over a good BC pack, and I cant wait to get my hands on a dynafit pack. Please keep us updated on the clothing line, and some more detailed blogs about the dynafit products you have tested would be great. Thanks. Thanks for covering all that Lou.
