DPS Tour1 Wailer 99 Review

The DPS Tour1 Wailer 99 is one of the more specialized products in our otherwise general purpose selection. Surely, many will make the Wailer 99 work in all conditions, but it is most at home in great powder on long, high energy days of ski touring. The lightweight construction is great for the up but deserves gentleness and kindness in handling and riding. Don’t ride these for day-to-day use on the ski lifts. We choose our products for this review for all-around, quiver of one backcountry skiing. While we all wish to own and travel with many different dedicated skis, reality often dictates otherwise. If you are lucky enough to ride predominantly dry powder snow, with only occasional excursions to the firm or funky, the DPS Tour1 Wailer 99 is a hot rod cold smoke blaster. If you like the steep and rowdy, or the long corn tours, or end up on “character building” snow regularly, something else is likely to be a better choice.
