Product Info
Moment Death Wish Skis 2013: Radically different than anything on the mountain, the Moment Death Wish Skis feature Moment’s new Dirty Mustache profile: three separate camber sections along the midsection of the ski, with rocker at the tip and tail. Get a loose, surfy feel that flat camber provides, plus tenacious edge grip when conditions take a turn. Dirty Mustache makes it all possible by concentrating your weight at four points when put on edge, giving you unprecedented bite in hardpack while smearing and slashing like a Twin Rocker design in powder. You’ll be the last one left on the mountain.
Product Details
Shape
Dirty Mustache Rocker: Prepare your face for meltdown. New for 2013, Dirty Mustache Rocker combines the carving power of traditional camber with the loose, playful feel of Twin Rocker. Underfoot, three areas of slight positive camber create pressure points that bite the snow when the ski is placed on edge. This effect is eliminated in deep snow, where the flat midsection combines with tip and tail rocker to let the ski pivot and smear with ease.
Construction
Flex rating of 7 out of 10 (1 Soft – 10 Stiff)
Moment uses Aspen/Pine wood core on skis that need to be able to withstand a beating. Ash provides amazing binding retention, strength and dampening; Pine adds durability and reduces weight to the core.
Fiberglass Matrix fine-tunes the flex profile of the ski.
Carbon Fiber stringers provide more pop and snap and are extremely strong and lightweight.
Dimensions
20m @ 164cm, 23m @ 174cm, 25m @ 184cm, 27m @ 190cm, 138/112/129 (all sizes)
Additional Features
UHMW (Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) Sidewalls are extremely light, durable, and resistant to separation.
2.2mm Rockwell 48 Steel Edge for more strength and durability
1.2mm Durasurf 4001 Sintered base can take a beating while staying fast. They are US-made, harder and have better wax absorption than extruded bases. Moment uses sublimated graphics to eliminate the cracking and peeling common on die-cut bases.
VDS Dampening System is placed over the edges and in several other key locations to mellow any harsh vibrations.
Binding Compatibility
We recommend a brake width that is equal to the ski waist width and at most 15 mm wider.

All-Mountain, Powder

Terrain
All-Mountain All-mountain skis are designed to handle anything you throw at them including powder, ice, groomers, steeps, heavy snow, and everything in between, but they aren’t necessarily a master of any one terrain. If you’re only going to own one ski to do it all, this is what you want. All-mountain skis generally have what we call mid-fat waists that range from 80-110 mm. Powder These skis are for the deep days. If you like to find powder stashes at your local resort, go on backcountry missions for the freshest of fresh or heli ski trips to BC, powder skis are what you need to stay afloat. Skis in the powder category are wide and most often have some form of rocker or early rise plus a relatively soft flex. Many powder skis today are versatile enough to handle mixed conditions and harder snow.

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.

Rocker Type:
Rocker/Camber/Rocker
More
Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber/Rocker Rocker/Camber/Rocker skis have the playfulness and float of a rockered ski as well as the added edge hold of a cambered ski. The contact points on skis with this profile are closer towards the middle of the ski than a fully cambered ski, but still not underfoot. The cambered midsection provides a longer effective edge on hardpack, increasing edge hold and stability, while the rockered tip and tail provide floatation in deeper snow and allow the ski to initiate and release from turns easier.

Tail Type:
Full Twin Tip

Tail Type
Full Twin Tip Desinged to allow you to ski backwards, full twin tips are found primarily on park & pipe skis and freestyle powder skis. More and more, we are seeing twin tips on all-mountain skis of all abilities, as it makes it a little easier to get around, and for the most part does not inhibit forward skiing.
