Front Rocker, tip rocker over camber underfoot with a raised tail, gives the Countach Tour 98 a longer running length than the twin-tip Deathwish and Wildcat Tours, and a 14.5 m radius at 170 cm is the tightest arc in the touring range. A 136-98-120 mm shape and 1,450 g per ski (170 cm) put this ski where spring corn, firm skin tracks and long objectives live.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"ccbb-expert-line\"\u003e\n

m and 19 m. That is a real spread, so length changes turn shape here more than on the Wildcat Tours. Because Front Rocker gives a longer running length than a rockered twin, this ski skis closer to its stated length, so we do not size up the way we do on a Deathwish. Effective edge runs 1,370 mm at 170 cm to 1,550 mm at 188 cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eMoment publishes the mount at 8 cm behind true center on all four lengths, further back than the rest of the touring line, and that is our default drill. It ships flat with no plate, so pin-tech and hybrid bindings both go on without reinforcement. Match the binding to your boot sole norm rather than to the ski. Moment recommends a 97 mm brake against the 98 mm waist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eSkin width comes off the 120 mm tail rather than the 98 mm waist, so the Countach Tour 98 takes a 120 mm stock skin trimmed to shape. That is a narrower stock width than the rest of Moment's touring line uses, so skins do not rotate from a Deathwish or Wildcat Tour onto this ski. The tail is raised rather than a rockered twin, which gives a tail clip more to hold than a full twin does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp class=\"ccbb-rating-key\"\u003eSpecifications verified by CCBB staff.
