Bought these in late 2023 from the limited run Moment put out. Mounted with Look Pivot 12’s Forzas. First day on them. Have a couple of other reverse camber skis but the most notable thing about the Meridian was it’s pivotability. This was fantastic to experience in soft chop, but also evidenced by a bit of swimming when running bases flat. Ski feels strong and in this length is relatively light c.2000g. Felt very confident on them from early on, easy to adjust to considering they are quite different from more cambered directional skis. I have them mounted -1 from recommended, but still probably the most forward mounted ski that I have. Did not find that to be a problem adjusting to, but did notice the extra tail compared to more directional skis. Enjoyed them in soft chop that was probably 15-20 cms deep but felt as if it was on top of an icy base, slightly odd conditions.
Really looking forward to getting to ski them more
