2025 Dynastar M-Pro W 92

Replacing the former Dynastar E-Pro 99, the new M-Pro W 92 takes on a new construction, altered shape and more accessible feel, appealing to the intermediate crowd while holding up to the demands of advanced level skiers. Holding its ground in the all-mountain freeride category, the M-Pro 92 offers a versatile waist width and high-performance build, combining playful maneuverability with powerful stability. While the previous model kept its target audience somewhat limited, Dynastar hoped to widen the playing field by tweaking the tip shape, adding rocker to the tail, and changing up the width sizes. The result is a ski that is more fun, less demanding, and still packs a lot of punch.

It all starts with the construction, and in this case, we get upgrades all around. Starting with the Hybrid 2.0 core, which we saw in the E-Cross series last year. Through the use of three different wood layers in a multi-dimensional format, the central sections are joined together through force rather than an adhesive. This not only provides instant feedback but keeps the use of chemicals to a minimum, which is always a benefit. Polyurethane strips are placed on the outside of the core, keeping the ski light and agile while providing exceptional dampening qualities. The other change we see is the move away from the Titanal Rocket Frame laminate and towards H-shaped partial metal. Before, the metal laminate was longer and narrower in the forebody and wider in the tail, giving the aft of the ski a serious, more business-like feel. Now, the M-Pro W 92 takes on a more energetic, maneuverable feel from tip to tail. With this new metal laminate focuses more on the edges of the ski and less in the center, it delivers great edge grip without feeling overly demanding. Tester Lauren Reed attested to that by echoing “solid all-around ski. Likes to hold an edge.”

The shape of the new M-Pro W 92 has a lot to do with the overall character change, with much more mobility out of the tail and greater turn initiation in the shovel. This is due to the dimensions, as well as profile alterations. In the 170 cm length, the measurements are 127/93/117 mm, which changes from 118/88/108 mm in last year’s iteration. In the tail, we see less of a strictly directional profile and more rocker, which allows the skier to release from the tail with greater ease and more energy. The previous model definitely had you feeling pretty locked into your turn from the tail so this is a welcomed change for less aggressive skiers. We don’t see a change in the turn radius, 16 meters in the 170, but it feels turnier because of the new shape.

The changes we see in the E-Pro series now M-Pro W Series take quite a bit of seriousness of this ski and allow a wider variety of skiers to enjoy it. While this is the case, it certainly did not lose its high-performance nature and degree of power, which is a testament to Dynastar for sure. By making slight tweaks to the profile while maintaining a sturdy build, they were able to achieve a more approachable character with still a very high level of strength and stability for those who want to push it harder.
