I concur. I just bought Dynastar Cham 97 2.0 and spent last two days skiing them. My new go-to ski I think. I put marker F10 bindings so that to use them for shorter tours with more downhill bias.

For sort of old school powder skiers who want to put in a few turns these were an absolute pleasure. Plenty of float, good width & sidecut to keep responsive and stiff tales provide you some power. I could barely stop laughing the two times have taken them out this season. Forgot how much I had missed the POP having mainly skied Kastle 108 offpiste.

Serious amount of fun and a little bit old school!

Interesting so I have the mythic with dynafit a and was thinking of getting some 2.0 and transferring marker binging from my Kastle 108. Basically don't fully trust dynafit for the knees. Your setup seems to be spot on.

I have Dynafits on my Scott Powd'Airs that I use for long tours, but I don't have much confidence in them in steeps etc. - somehow I feel the balance is off and I always have to watch my weight distribution etc. I need to take this set-up and my touring boots to the shop and see if we can figure it out, maybe shims under toe pieces or something like that, but I always forget. So just in case I won't get it done this season I have a second touring set-up I can trust more for shorter climbs.

Lol good logic in convincing ourselves we need more ski gear. Great minds and all that.
