 Poster: A snowHead
|
I'm considering the blizzard rustler 11 as a powder ski for a 2 ski quiver (the other pair already owned are kore 93).
Has anyone here used the rustler 11 or have any experience of it?

Yep rented a pair on a powder day in Jackson Hole and loved them. Great in both pow and chop. Also perfectly useable on piste. Highly recommend.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

The Sales Manager of the UK Blizzard distributor says that the Rustler 11 is his favourite in their line-up which considering how could the other models are is a pretty good testimonial. I had a pair in my demo fleet at the recent EoSB and did a couple of laps on them (hard pack & variable) and really liked them too.
I'm a long time Brahma/Bonafide fan but find the 27m radius Cochise just a bit too much/chargey/too stiff in the tail. The Rustler 11 with it's tail rocker and shorter radius is like a cheater Cochise and would make a great two ski quiver with your Kore 93's.
I'll have the Rustler 11's in my demo line-up at the snowHeads October ski tests if you want to try them. I'll also have the new as yet unnamed Whitedot 114's and the Scott Scrapper 115 there and I'd recommend trying them too as they're direct competitors to the Rustler.

It's name has just been been announced and it's called the Altum 114 and there's the Altum 94 as well. The Altum 104 is due in 19/20.

pffft what does Altum mean? Sounds like a nondescript investment or consulting organisation (...quick google and yes there are). ASBO has meaning and a credible story.

Yep. I think that Alta is the root but a certain resorts marketing dept might have gotten a tad stroppy
