Heck Yeah!
Mal: 
Sweet & forgiving but with reasonable speed limits. For the most part a 2 ski quiver for me. Apache recons in 174 for hard pack and thick crud (I'm a Mt Hoodie... we get's stout crud over here), Prophet 100's in 179 for soft days treks to BC & the Wasatch.I'm 6 ' 200 lbs. trees and tight. I'm not into figure 11's down the face... so quick turns, some carve, a little smear - whatever it takes to get through the slot... Neither ski in my quiver is probably the best at any one thing - except pegging the fun ' o meter!
Review Title
Robert Richardson:
186 prophet 100's mounted w/ dukes; bullet proof setup. I literally skied this setup virtually everyday last year. Great edge hold on piste, great float off. At the same time, I think you get out of them what you put in. They aren't light (esp. w/ dukes) but you can absolutely charge. Stoked to ride this setup again for another season.
The Prophet doesn't talk back!
jeff foreman:
Just like the other reviewers suggest, a proven well thought out ski that does not need to change. Most surprising of all is the invisibility of this ski. I kept asking myself last season(44 hits), why can't I notice the fatness?? Wanted to carve continually as if the waist were 69mm's. Beautifully light but stable particularly with the Salomon Z12's. My only suggestion to the company brats would be to soften the tip ever so slightly. I ski in Northern BC where the snow is very light after a fresh dump. Enjoy!

Same ski as last year different grafic....Thank heaven. What's not to like about this ski. It does it all. Believe all the hype and the reviews. They are true. Trees, crud, powder, groomers, this ski rocks in all conditions. The only thing that will hold you back is your ability....the ski is golden!
'Love this ski
Jeff Kendall:
Don't fix it if it isn't broken? This ski is still ahead of so many other skis out there. the innovation keeps it lightweight, easy to ski, and unbelievably resilient. 6'1", 185lbs and a 179cm is a one ski quiver for me... if i didn't have such a problem collecting skis.
