This week I will be mainly riding one of these beasties... you can tell by the name which market they're aiming at!

171cm length with a 14m turn radius it's a very turny ski, with a waist of 71mm underfoot.

Feels fairly stiff so needs good foot pressure to get the best of it. Very light going edge-to-edge and loves to be powered up - definitely not a ski for dawdling...

Felt great on piste but quite hard work on chopped-up crud and lumpy off-piste - particularly at lower speeds. No chance to try it in powder but I suspect the relatively narrow waist (by today's standards) may compromise it a little there.

Don't think I was skiing it aggressively enough yesterday (particularly in the crud) so going to have more of a play around today.

Anyone else skiied this, or the earlier Dobermann?

Powder - er, Pistehound

Sorry to bring up old topic, but found it on a google search!?

Just got a pair of Dobermann Spitfires. Skied some in Big White earlier in the year and i love them!!! Cant wait to ski my own ones, unfortunately gotta wait till November till i get back to Big White.
