Moment Deathwish 2023

The Deathwish is built for advanced to expert skiers who want a versatile, high-performance ski for big mountain terrain. It excels for riders who spend most of their time in powder or variable conditions but still need a ski that can hold an edge on firmer snow.

The triple-camber profile is the defining feature of the Deathwish. It provides the float and playfulness of a rocker profile in deep snow while incorporating micro-camber sections underfoot to give you reliable edge grip and stability when you hit hardpack or groomed runs.

Yes, the full twin-tip design makes this ski very capable for switch riding and freestyle-oriented skiing. Combined with its 112 mm waist and surfy feel, it is a great choice if you like to treat the entire mountain like a terrain park.

With a 112 mm waist, you should look for bindings with a brake width of 115 mm to 125 mm. Generally, you want a brake width that is equal to or up to 15 mm wider than the ski's waist to ensure proper clearance.

The carbon fiber hybrid composite adds significant torsional rigidity and pop to the ski without adding unnecessary weight. This helps the ski feel snappy and responsive when initiating turns, while the poplar and ash wood core keeps it damp and stable at higher speeds.

At 1790 grams, the Deathwish is relatively lightweight for its size, which helps it feel nimble in tight terrain like trees or chutes. While it is a big mountain ski, its playful construction makes it surprisingly easy to pivot and maneuver compared to stiffer, heavier chargers.
