2027 Dynastar M-Pro 100 Ti

The 2027 Dynastar M-Pro 100 Ti gets a fresh new look for this year but otherwise returns unchanged. That’s great news for skiers who love the sharp grip, the high-end feel, and the solid overall performance that this ski provides. With a well-rounded turn shape and style, the M-Pro 100 suits the needs of aggressive skiers who want to give it their all as well as for those who are looking for a powerful ski, but with just a bit off the top. There are a lot of high-powered skis in this width range, and while this M-Pro is right there, it’s just a tad more approachable than the most aggressive of the group.

Built with Dynastar’s Hybrid 2.0 Core and a metal laminate, these skis are pretty stiff and reactive. They mill and join two of the wood layers to create friction and pop. The metal H-frame that sits atop the core puts more pressure on the edges and gives the ski more stability and smoothness in a carved turn. The 178 sits on the scale at a stated weight of 1900 g/ski which is hefty but not otherworldly. We get a nice blend of lighter poplar to go along with a partial metal laminate here—not full on race build, but still quite sturdy. Tester Jose Darias states that “The M Pro 100 is an aggressive ski that wants to go fast and push hard edges. I really liked its top end performance but did feel that it was less forgiving than similar skis like the Rossignol Soul 102. I was able to find some soft pockets in the trees on the edge of the main trail and had a great time in those spaces. There were some denser, wind packed pockets that were more difficult to drive the skis through but still managed well enough. The ski was really positive on edge while driving over hard snow and felt very confidence inspiring. It’s powerful and a bit of a bully if you’re not pushing the upper end of performance. It feels like it just wants to go faster and faster.”

At 100 mm underfoot, this is truly an all-conditions and all-terrain ski. It’s more directional in nature, boasting measurements of 134/100/124 to generate a 17-meter turn radius. It loves to carve that mid-radius turn shape and does require a bit of effort to make shorter arcs. With a smooth rocker profile and taper shape, softer snow is a breeze as these skis motor right through anything that gets in its way. We get some good feedback from Hans de Boer who notes that “This ski is a tank. It is heavy and it takes a lot to make it break its edge hold. I didn't think it was all that playful or forgiving if you got into the backseat. It is a stiff ski and it is meant to go fast, it definitely hit the mark for an all-mountain, point it downhill and go kind of ski. They hit the mark for an all-mountain ski. I wouldn't say it totally is a one-ski quiver though. It'll do great in powder, but if it was really deep, I'd want something that is going to be less stiff, and if I was going to do front side carving, or skiing with folks slower than me, I'd reach for a more forgiving, more playful ski. But if you are ready to point them downhill and go for a ride, these are great!”

Now that the graphics are catching up to the well-rounded and high-performance nature of the ski, we’re expecting and hoping that skiers will gravitate to the M-Pro 100 a bit more. It’s always been a total blast, but somewhat bland styling has stood in its way of making a dent in a very competitive field of 100 mm all-mountain skis. For 2027, the M-Pro 100 has the proper tools and skillset to break right in there and find a home with advanced and expert all-mountain skiers.
