I've been long time watching for any reviews about this product and would be great to have some detailed insight. Background: I'm looking at this as my first set of BC skis. 5' 6" (167.5ish cm), between 145 - 155 lbs depending on how the winter went. I'm not an aggressive skier. I care about weight but not THAT much - I want to enjoy my downs as well. I'm hoping to stick with one set for short tours, long tours, hut-to-huts, etc. when I get there. Skiing in the North East.
I've been debating between these and getting a package with something like the Voile Objectives (maybe the BC since those seem "more versatile"?). The Objectives are lighter, apparently ski well, and seem to have the ideal length: 164. These are heavier, 2cm longer (does that matter?) and comes with everything I need (minus the boots).
Thoughts on the matter?
Dynafit Seven Summits+ Ski Set
It can be confusing knowing what binding to fit to what ski, and for what size boot. If you are amongst those scratching your head over this conundrum you are not alone. To remedy the situation Dynafit has introduced their Seven Summits+ Ski Set. A pre-mounted package with an adjustable Radical ST Binding and precut Dynafit skins. All this set needs is unwrapping and adjusting (to your boot) and it's ready to go touring. These mid-fat skis are light, full wood core, with a full ABS sidewall and lightly rockered tip and tail for ease of turning. Skins are trimmed and attach easily to the tip and tail using Dynafit’s Speedskin system. The Seven Summits+ Ski Set is a friendly pre-assembled ski set-up for those looking for an easy first step into the world of ski touring and backcountry skiing.
Seven Summits+ Ski
- Poplar wood core for an even, smooth flex.
- Full ABS sidewall for durability and edge hold.
- Rockered tip and lightly rockered tail increase maneuverability from turn to turn.
- Pre-mounted with Dynafit ST Radical bindings for an easy out of the box setup.
Seven Summits+ Skin

- Mix skin (70% mohair 30% nylon) for good glide and durability.
- Pre-cut skins match the shape of your ski; no trimming required.
ST Radical Binding
- 2 easy to use risers heights plus flat mode make the climb that much more enjoyable.
- 25mm of adjustment allows for different boots to work with the bindings.

Franco, This package is an easy buy to get started. This ski is a bit heavier, but will handle NE conditions better than an ultralight ski. They have full sidewalls and a beefier poplar wood core.
Length - 2cm is less than 1 inch, not a significant difference.
The Objective is a popular ski in the NE and if you ski low angle, rolling terrain, the BC version is handier than skins. If you pair with a light, brakeless binding then you will have a much lighter package. If you wish to discuss this in detail, email us at help@skimo.co

Concerning the The Dynafit Seven Summits+ Ski Set:
Your chart indicates the (184cm) pair weigh 3064g. Is this total weight with bindings or without? (Your notes indicate to add an extra 550g for the pre-mounted bindings, but this seems way too heavy)

Hey Barry,
Great question! So the skis alone weigh in at 3064g but the bindings are an additional 1062g per pair. Thanks for reaching out!
