2025 Dynastar M-Pro 100 Ti

Selfishly, I’m sad to see the M-Pro 99 go. That ski was awesome and fit my style and preference. I loved the longer turn radius, the straighter shovel, and the stiff, business-like tail that put you into orbit when you made a mistake. That said, the new 2025 M-Pro 100 Ti is an absolute blast. This is one of those skis that could render all other skis obsolete. Dynastar does not get the credit it deserves for making such amazing products. With a whole new build and shape, the M-Pro 100 is a true all-mountain ski in the most direct form. We get an innovative construction, a middle-of-the-road shape, and versatility to spare. Overall, this is a nice move for Dynastar, even with my personal affinity for the outgoing 99.

When we saw the Hybrid 2.0 core in the M-Cross 88, it was only a matter of time before it trickled into other skis in their line as well. The M-Pro 100 takes full hold of this tech, using three different wood layers including two of them that are joined together with friction and pressure rather than glue. They then use their PU material along the edges as in all their Hybrid core skis. This PU gives the ski a very quiet, smooth, and stable feel at a very light weight. As for the new metal, the old 99 had the Rocket Frame laminate that was long and thin in the forebody and long and wide in the tails. The new layer falls more into the M-Cross's H-shaped Titanal laminate that is shorter in the front and back. This gives the ski a bit more mobility through the tails and an easier entry and more flotation through the front. The ski hits the scale at about 1900 grams per ski in the 178, so right in the sweet spot for blending power and mobility. Tester Bob St.Pierre states that “This 100 is a true all-mountain performer. There's no preference on the ski's side as to where it wants to go, it's all in for whatever you want. I had a lot of success on groomers on this ski, but it also feels very amenable to broken snow and chop due to the easy maneuverability.” The lack of thinking was something that the 99 never had—you had to pay attention to that one. This new 100 is a bit more mindless, in a good way.

The move from 99 to 100 underfoot isn’t a monumental one, it’s more the other measurements that contribute to the ski’s altered feel. The 178 in the 99 featured a 20-meter turn radius while the new one drops to 17. That’s fairly significant when it comes to changing a skis shape and therefore character. Even more, the 185 drops from 22 to 18. The tip gains 7 mm of width in the new ski, offering a more direct transfer of energy to the beginning of the carve. There’s more traditional camber here as well. The 99 had long tip rocker but not a lot in the tail. The new 100 is more balanced with more even rocker at the ends. This hits more of a middle ground and appeals to a broader audience.

That audience is varied—skiers in the intermediate range will be able to take advantage of most of what the M-Pro 100 Ti has to offer. It’s a good entry point into the 100 mm all-mountain ski with metal category. At the same time, advanced and expert skiers will be satisfied with the available performance, edge grip, and versatility. This is one of those skis that you simply do not have to think about—they're incredibly natural and intuitive and will keep going as far and as hard as you can push it.
