Movement Alp Tracks 100 Ski

I love this ski!

It doesn't do one thing perfectly, but it does everything well. It's balanced, super light for its width, when I lean back in variable conditions there's lots of support in the tails. I've put lots of 6-10k days on these skis and they never feel heavy. Even on corn days I find myself reaching for these when I should go for my narrow skis because they weigh close to the same and they handle variable better.

Hi
I’m looking at the Movement Alptracks 100- I currently ski a 5 yr old voile vector with a teletech set up (dynafit toe and voile cable springs) and scarpa to pro boots. I ski everything backcountry but am slow and steady and not aggressive (hence I think the binding will hold- I have never loosened a binding) . Mostly powder days and woods but always some crud somewhere. How do these skis compare (apart from weight). I would prefer to go wider with the 106 but review suggest that they don’t do crud well- thanks!

So much fun in powder and quite light for the ascent. This is the ski in my quiver that I use the most. Go ahead and cash out your kid's college fund and get these instead.

For reference: I'm 5'11, 200 lbs and went with the 178 cm. I've been happy with that length. I ski these with the Fischer Travers Carbon boot and find that to be a good match. You could go with a beefier boot but I don't think you have to.

Movement!!! These skis are fantastic. Not a ski for the faint of heart. These want to go, go, go. Incredibly lightweight—perhaps the lightest on the market for the size.

So I did pull my bindings out of the skis. No problem. Skimo got me back out there quick. Movement went ahead reinforced the where the bindings are drilled. So no problem now.

I can’t recommend these skis enough.

I bought the Movement 100 skis (along with ski trab titan vario 2 binding and La Sprotivia Skorpius boot) at the end of last season and I'm finally getting to enjoy this season. I bought these to be a true all-mountain one-ski quiver and so far they absolutely slay. Technical chute skiing in very mixed conditions - check. Resort groomed + mixed chunder in non groomed - check. Deep ass powder - double check. If I had to make a critique, I found it hard to really super carve turns on groomed at Deer Valley. But I would be willing to give that another try before saying the skis can't do it. I'm looking forward to the next ten years of slaying on these sticks.

SkiTrab Vario bindings, Pomoca skins. Going on 3rd season. I had the version before with a single plate and they broke on me, but Movement and SkiMo were very helpful getting me into a new pair quickly and for free! I think perhaps they went a bit too light with the earlier version, this new version is much better reinforced with "double plate reinforcement" at the mounting area.

How do they behave? They cruise well at 50+ mph on groomers, yet they are agile and handle powder like a dream, and light enough for the 20-mile all-day Spring tours. A great all-around choice for a one-ski quiver. This is actually my first backcountry ski purchase. Again, as with my bindings, it was a huge leap of faith to get something so ridiculously light! But they have held up well. Needless to say, I'd look to the other reviews for how they behave and I generally agree with their comments.

The light coverage of this 2020/2021 season has taken a beating to these skis. I've hit tons of rocks, logs, stumps etc. and I was sure I had a good core shot or two, but they have miraculously survived. The edges need some tuning. Gotta bring them by SkiMo for some love once this season is over!

Hey,

Which ski in your Alp Tracks line will perform best for All-Mountain skiing? Along a different line, which is best suited for ski mountaineering? I currently ride the Camox Freebird and love it but am looking for another weapon in my ski quiver for steeper missions.

Thank you!

I am interested in the alp track 100s...the ones you have listed on sale for 799...are those the latest version of that ski or last years model?

thanks

I got a pair of these in 185 with Atomic Backland Tour bindings and some Pomoca S-Glide Pro skins in mid March and toured on them about 20 days from then til late May. Lots of powder of varying density, some corn, and some firm stuff here and there. The Alp Tracks 100 really did do it all. They aren't exactly a playful ski, but they are very versatile, and like everyone here says, you can rail them on the firm in spite of being (to me, anyway) insanely light. I wouldn't want to spend all day skiing them on straight hardpack if I could avoid it, but that's not what I ski uphill for. I was worried that they would be a bummer in deepish pow (12-18"), but I was wrong. It's not a casual ski – it definitely behaves best when you ski it with purpose (and for sure when you get aggressive).

I rolled the dice on these (it was early COVID times, so I couldn't demo), and I was very happy with the result. And man are they light!

With a full season on the Alp Tracks 100, I can finally do a review.
I got these to be my everyday ski, which here in the Wasatch means a powder ski, but this season I am still skiing and exposing them to all kinds of spring/summer conditions.
The 5-Axis carbon and wood core yield a moderately stiff ski except for the rockered tip. Along with its flat tail, it doesn't look like a powder loving ski next to, say, my DPS Wailer 112s. But I have yet to be disappointed. Making old style 'how many turns can I make' quick turns to carving arcs, they do what I want. I have only resorted to the Wailers on days when the snow density reaches low single digits and the snow stake reads over 2 feet.
Spring has yielded just as much fun. Skiing chutes in all conditions, no problem. Ripping high-speed groomers after the resort has closed (thanks, Alta) shows how amazing these are. At speed, you settle into the carve and they grip. If you fall back a little, the stiff tail just picks me up. I've been hitting some serious sun cupped and runneled south slopes and not getting unnecessarily tossed around -- although I would choose to hit them after they have sufficiently softened.
I'm 5'10", 155lbs and a fairly aggressive/high-speed skier. I got the 177cm. Was considering the 170 to shave weight, but if you have powder in mind, get the 177. Mounted with Titan Vario.2, the combo comes in at1500g. Sweet as can be!

I have a similar question to Matt. I'm looking for an everyday ski and am currently on Black Crows Camox Freebirds and Kastle TX 98 skis. Any idea how these would compare? I really like my Kastles, but they are hammered. My Black Crows are ok, but just feel kind of vague when you push them hard. I am thinking that a pair of these Alp Tracks or Voile Hyper Vectors might be good options for me. Thoughts?

Hi. Could you highlight some of the similarities and differences between Movement Alp Tracks LT 100 and Voile Hyper V6?

The Backcountry Magazine review has a few outstanding comments for the Hyper V6: "One of the most capable, versatile skis of the test", "It does everything well and nothing half-assed”, “Skis big when you need it in pow, but short and quick when you don’t in firmer conditions.”

Where would you say the Alp Tracks 100 outperforms the Hyper V6?

Thank you. I find your comments on these pages to be super useful!

Team Skimo,

Hope you all had a nice summer!!!

I was wondering if you could highlight some of similarities and differences between Movement Alp Tracks LT 100 and DPS Wailer 99 Tour1 Ski?

Thank you,

Mike

Hi,
I demoed the Alp Tacks for a day in BC this winter and was amazed how
well they skied powder as well as breakable wind slab.
I'd like to buy a pair but my only concern in the length.
I'm 5'5" and 125 lbs. Do you think 170 is too long?
Thanks Alisa

Is it just me, or did this ski get 100 grams heavier this year? Looking at your weights, the weights on another site, and then looking at the current weights on Movement's site?

How do these ski compared to the La Sportiva Nano?

Skimo set these up for me with Hagan Core bindings and Pomoca Climb Pro S-Glide skins. I was looking for a ski as much of a crusher as my 177 Movement Shift (137-98-125; 3,642 g/pair with Plum Guides w/o brakes) but lighter, these are 177 cm, 132-100-120, and 3,170 g/pair with the Core bindings (w brakes). The Shifts (very similar to the newer Control) are great skis for heavier muscular guys and require strong input, I've enjoyed them greatly. But they tend to hook in trap crust (styrofoam like crust the skis cuts a channel into) and require some pretty strong input in wet junky snow. The Alp Tracks 100 LT are a significantly more pliable ski w/o being a bit wimpy. I got them Wednesday, did a hot deep clean wax followed by scraping, steel, copper, nylon, and horsehair brushing and applying hydrocarbon universal wax that I let see for 23 hours then did the copper, nylon, and horsehair routine followed by two buffings LOL and waite till the clouds lifted off my backyard (Paradise, Mt. Rainier). So I got to ski today, early morning: ice and breakable crust on the climb up to an E-facing slope, sun-warmed with soft, water saturated surface snow--my 1st turns on this ski down a 25-15 degree slope were easy and smooth; the embossed pattern in the bases breaking up the suction. Across another icy flat to 25-30 degree S-facing slope, somewhat sunwarmed with crust here and there, and fast medium-radius turns down; perfect, up and icy/crusty W-facing slope to a E-facing ridge with very soft snow, and then down a 35+ degree slope with a consistenty breakable water-ice crust from rain on snow. Aftrer a very steep soft entry it was shattered crust pieces and and death cookies flying! Using a moderate input the skis carved the crust for over 500 vertical feet w/o a problem. This could be a 1-ski quiver for me because I know it will do fine in poweder and corn and it weighs the same as my Cho Oyus with Superlite 2.0s. But I am sure I will be turning to my Movement Vertex-X for long spring/summer tours to ski the glaciers soon. So light with Superlite 2.0s, and so much fun, I won't be retiring those. Time will tell about the Cho Oyus and, especially the Shifts--the Shifts are crude-eating monsters and I'll have to see how the Alp Tracks hold up. :-) Old men and there skis, LOL>

Which is the better ski for cruddy conditions (heavy wet, breakable crust, trap crust, zip crust, etc), the 94 or the 100? It seems obvious that the 94 is best for hard snow, corn, and shallow powder and the 100 for deep powder.

I've had difficulty finding out much about the AlpTracks line. I haven't found many useful reviews... I'm interested in the 100 (or the 94 or 106). Do you have any on-snow information about them? It would be nice to know something about the profile (camber/amount of early rise tip/tail), and the stiffness and skiability.

In terms of weight/width, they compare well with things like the Wailer99Tour1, or the G3 Synapse+ 101 (or the fully rockered 109) or perhaps the Blizzard ZeroG 95/108s or others. But all of those skis have quite different styles. Where do these fit in? Do they need to be driven aggressively or are they more easy-skiing like the Wailers? Can they hold a carve on firmer snow quite well (more like the ZeroG95s)? etc. etc. I expect there are quite big differences between the 94/100/106... is that true? Are there any useful comparisons with other skis?

Thanks for any insight you can provide!

Is it possible to deliver to austria?
