Baller OKSkier Posted June 25, 2023 Baller Share Posted June 25, 2023 Wondering if anyone has gone from a 2019-2022 Senate Pro to a Denal C85? Curious about the transition between skis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller tjm Posted June 25, 2023 Baller Share Posted June 25, 2023 (edited) I tried last year. Still on the Senate. Edited June 25, 2023 by tjm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ lpskier Posted June 25, 2023 Baller_ Share Posted June 25, 2023 The Senate is a slightly wider version of the Vapor. I went from a 2020 Vapor to a 2021 c85. The transition was seemless. I stand on the ski just like I stood on the Vapor. Everything the Vapor did well, the C 85 does a little better. I doubt you’ll have any difficulties whatsoever switching to a C85, assuming of course that you aren’t changing bindings at the same time. Change one or the other, but not both at the same time. 1 Lpskier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller OKSkier Posted June 25, 2023 Author Baller Share Posted June 25, 2023 Thanks guys Went from '16 Vapor to '17 Vapor to '19 Senate to '22 Senate.

Baller lakeaustinskier Posted June 25, 2023 Baller Share Posted June 25, 2023 So I did the opposite - I made the switch from a C85 to a Senate (22). I'm 6'3' 205. Before the C85 I rode a C75. Radar and Denali both make excellent skis. I had a surgery last year that forced me to think about other skis. When I am skiing correctly the C85 has a lot of angle and acceleration (especially off the ball). The Senate isn't as explosive as the C85 but it maintains speed more continuously throughout the course. I love my C85 but at least for me the Senate is slightly easier on my body if I get into trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NETSki Posted June 25, 2023 Members Share Posted June 25, 2023 I made this switch last year. (2020 Senate Pro to C85). I ski in the same range as you. The C85 takes less effort and moves better with me. I find it gets me in better position from wake to ball (wider and slower) than I was able to achieve with the Senate.

Baller OKSkier Posted June 25, 2023 Author Baller Share Posted June 25, 2023 Thanks everyone - 34mph 210lbs - would I be on a Large Denali or XL? Appreciate your comments - the Senate is such a solid platform - and easy to ski - hard to change. But sometimes change is good etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ lpskier Posted June 25, 2023 Baller_ Share Posted June 25, 2023 I’m 185 on a large. At 210 I’d say XL. Lpskier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
