Product Info
Finally, a mid-fat charger from Dynastar, just how we like it! The Dynastar Cham 117 Skis strike the perfect balance between deep snow float and all-conditions maneuverability, and replace the Cham 127 in the lineup. The Cham 117 gets a new rocker treatment with a more progressive tip and added tail rocker to make it a more versatile tool without sacrificing the famous Dynastar charger stability. Moderate classic camber underfoot lends bomber edgehold on the hard stuff, and the sharply tapered tail lets you change up your turn radius in a hurry when you're steamrolling through tight trees and suddenly find the line doesn't go. The Dynastar Cham 117 is quite possibly the most versatile big mountain tool yet devised, and still won't disappoint fans of the earlier Legend Pro series.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Long Rocker Tip – A long, progressive rocker through the forebody of the ski delivers superior floatation in deep snow and crud and enhances steering, maneuverability and control.
Classic Camber – Delivers stability, reliable edge-grip and power and enhances turning and maneuverability on groomed snow.
Flat Tail – A flat and tapered tail aids in skin attachment and planting the tail of the ski in the snow.
Sidecut
Progressive 5-Point Sidecut – Combines reverse sidecut in the tip and tail with traditional sidecut underfoot to deliver effortless maneuverability and smearing capability, as well as easy turning and speed control in all snow conditions.
Shape
Pin Tail – Enhances tip float and directional control while allowing easier speed control in tight spaces.
Core
Paulownia Wood Core – The Paulownia wood core reduces the weight of the skis by 25%. Dynastar combines this wood with fibers developed by the race department to guarantee optimal skiability and performance.
Laminates
Titanal and High Tech Laminates – Extra layers for added power and dampness
Sidewalls
Full Length Vertical Sidewalls – Deliver the ultimate edge grip, power and balance
Binding Compatibility
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

Terrain
Big Mountain Big mountain skis are designed for charging big lines with high speeds and big airs. These skis varry in width from wide, powder-oriented skis for skiing Alaska spines to narrower, mixed condition skis for ripping the beat up headwall at your local mountain. Skis in this category tend to be on the stiffer side, often with more rocker in the tip and less in the tail. 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
More
Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber Rocker/Camber skis pair a traditional cambered profile underfoot with an elongated, early rise tip borrowed from fully rockered skis. This profile places the front contact point further back from the tip, while the rear contact point remains close to the tail. The rockered tip allows for better flotation and less edge catch for increased float in deep snow, while the cambered rear stores and transmits energy similarly to a fully cambered ski.
