Dynastar Cham 97 (2013)
Tester's Review
"Meant for the trees," said one tester, reflecting a consensus regarding the Cham 97's agility in skinny spaces. The combination of a long, wide, rockered tip and a narrow, pinlike tail is the source of that agility. Need to throw 'em sideways to miss a stump and sneak through a dense clutch of pines? Not a problem. It's manageable on groomers but thrives in complex terrain.
PRICE (MSRP): $800.00
