the dynastar PM is a flat out unbelievable ski, and was also recommended to me by a friend who has raced the actual PM if that's saying anything! i have had the pleasure of testing them in chamonix for the past two weeks across varying conditions, from deep powder to ice, crust, corn, slush - you name it - and can only say this is some incredible french ski technology. they ski nearly as well as my atomic 85UL in powder yet despite their weight have this mysterious feeling of dampness and stability in cho...

yeah sizing is consistent! i wouldn't change course if the blacks are working for you in 27. funny enough, i did just downsize my race pro from 27.5 to 27, because of some 'slightly loose' fit at times.

can't recommend these - the plastic part of the tip exploded into several pieces the first time i did a skin rip. didn't do anything out of the ordinary, nor am i crazy strong haha. they felt flimsy compared to pomoca tips too.

i always keep these in my pack and they work really well! keep my hands warm for skiing down and cold starts. i appreciate the opening in the middle which helps me quickly get my hands out for handling skins. also, one morning, i forgot my gloves at home and realized the only gloves i had on me were these overmitts. i decided to risk it all and skin up the mountain in 13F weather wearing only these over my bare hands, and lo and behold they were even TOO warm.
