The Dynastar M-Free 112 excels at cliff drops, sending wind lips, and attacking pillow lines. There’s something special about the way this ski navigates aggressive big-mountain terrain.
The M-Free 112 is the widest in Dynastar’s M-Free family and shares many similarities with its two slimmer brothers. The core combines polyurethane and wood to create a ski that feels stable underfoot. This complements the ski’s twin-like shape and ample tip and tail rocker nicely, producing a powerful ski that can easily release a turn. This makes it intuitive to butter and schmear the ski in deep snow.
The real draw to this ski is its stability in a dual-rockered package. This creates a nice contrast between being able to charge down the fall line and blast through heavy tracked-out snow while having quick and snappy tail release. The ski requires aggressive riding and feels most at home when you’re committed to the line rather than tentatively picking your way down.
The M-Free 112 is not surfy like other soft skis in this category, but that’s precisely the point. It’s designed for skiers who want to attack terrain rather than dance with it.
If you’re an advanced rider looking for a powder ski to add to your quiver for pinning it down the fall line after flying off a cliff, the M-Free 112 delivers the stability and confidence to handle whatever you throw at it.
