Moment Skis 2019 Deathwish and Wildcat Review with Powder7

Hi, my name is Zack and I am headed into my 7th season here at Powder 7. Today we are going to talk about one of my favorite, small, United States based ski companies- Moment Skis.
Shop Moment Skis: www.powder7.com/sale-skis/sea...
Moment was not only one of our first boutique brands here at Powder 7 but one of our first brands in general. Moment has become recognized over the years for their innovative designs, detail in production and some of the raddest graphics on the Market.
Today we are going to highlight two of Moment’s most sought after models: The Deathwish and the Wildcat (formally known as the Bibby Pro).
The Deathwish is perhaps the most unique ski in the lineup and also hands down, my favorite. From the specs it is easy to tell that the Deathwish is 112mm underfoot with a moderate flex profile. What the topsheets of the ski don’t tell you is that this was the ski that received Moment’s first ever Triple Camber Technology. Moment is the only company that I know of has actually created a new camber profile.
When you view the skis back to back, you can see that it is a ski that has rocker tip and tail with camber underfoot, however the wizards at Moment decided to toss another camber position before and after where the binding would be mounted. Think of it as a serrated knife with powerful contact points in the snow allowing the ski to carve, but flat areas of camber allow the ski to remain floaty and pivot easily. This makes the Deathwish the best excuse for a 1 ski quiver over 110mm underfoot.
For diehard Moment fans, it will take a while to get used to the lack of the Bibby name in the lineup but please don’t panic, the ski is still around- it is now just called the Wildcat. At 116mm underfoot with what I believe to be a rather stiff flex for a ski without metal- the Wildcat is your go to big mountain powder ski. Of course there are 135mm underfoot Pow skis out there but how many days a year do the conditions actually warrant that? We will leave those skis for folks who prefer to only ever drop out of a heli into 2+ feet. The Bibby is super floaty when you want it to be but also precise and nimble when you need to bend the skis in tight places or get out of a sticky situation.

Thanks for the great review with great shots of views of the skis

would the wildcat be a good ski to bring to the park aswell?

[@powder7skis]

Hi, I think the Wildcat would be a good ski for the park because it has a twin tip making it easy to ski backwards and spin.
