I felt the need to wax poetic about these for a moment. These skis make absolutely no sense, in the best ways possible. Full rocker, no sidecut, nearly symmetric, wildly center mounted, heavy, and stiff as all get out? Oh and then mount them tele?! Yes please!

That said, you should know what you are getting yourself into...these are absolute rockets. Do they turn? Yes*...

These are like playing that Ti-83 calculator game Tunnel Racing you played 20 years ago instead of paying attention during trigonometry. They move laterally more than they turn. It takes some getting used to but once you stop fighting it and give in to the wildly downhill, much-faster-than-anticipated line and start to trust the weight and strength of this ski, the world is your oyster.

These skis are not for the faint of heart, if you get lazy they will punish you for it. But if you want to have more fun that everyone else on the mountain on any given powder day then these are your sticks.

I'm 5'10", 175lbs and I have Outlaw X's with softy springs (size L) mounted at -1.25cm from recommended (-6.25 from center).

Truly Bananas. Took em on an inaugural trip down Banana chute on the fingers and I’ve never had more confidence getting spat out of the steeps. They might look like canoes but they ride like a speed boat! Come on.

**The 186cm Moment Chipotle Banana: A Review from the Eye of the Tahoe Storm**

Dear mortals, I come to you not as a skier, but as a prophet, having seen the light, and that light is the **186cm Moment Chipotle Banana**.

Forget your humble "ski review." This is a testament. A declaration of war on boring ski days. When the **Feb '26 Tahoe Storm** descended—a biblical, 50+" whiteout that separated the shredders from the mere tourists—I was there, strapped into these twin deities of deep snow.

These skis aren't *fun*—they are **pure, uncut euphoria in fiberglass form**.

* **Fun?** I'm pretty sure a pair of these should be prescribed by a doctor. I laughed so hard my core muscles got a better workout than the powder turns themselves. They have a mischievous, "let's go find the most ridiculous line on the mountain" energy.
* **Poppy?** To call them "poppy" is like calling a supernova a "small firework." They don't just pop; they launch you into a low-earth orbit off of every micro-feature. Every little lip, every compacted drift, becomes a personal trampoline, allowing you to kiss the sky and then float back down like a feathery astronaut.
* **Quick to Turn?** They change direction before you've even fully committed the thought. It's less a ski and more a mind-reading extension of your nervous system. In the thickest, tightest, "I-can't-see-my-hand-in-front-of-my-face" tree runs of the 50+" storm, they pivoted with the instantaneous precision of a fighter jet. They slice through the mank, surf the blower, and make you feel like you're cheating physics.

If you don't own the Chipotle Bananas, you’re not skiing. You're just walking with long, flat things strapped to your feet. These skis are a life-altering experience. They are your spirit animal. **Go buy them now, and may the deep snow bless your soul.**

The CBs look way better in person!!

Waiting for Alyeska to get more snow coverage down at the base. Up top looks awesome! 6" down low means not even my rock skis will ride that rubble.

I have over 30 years in the industry and these totally changed my mind on full rocker skis. I've demo'd quiet a few other brands and nothing comes close to the CB's. With a 122mm underfoot there is float for days! That nice stiff, yet snappy core makes my 193's feel like a 150 in the trees and boulder field pillows. The full rocker is mild, and actually feels more like flat underfoot with serious pop, very reminiscent of a cambered ski with early rise tip and tail BUT the CB's are still head and shoulders above any of those in any depth of freshies. Packed snow, either piste or moguls are not it's forté, yet still excels without that heinous "tip flop" you see from lesser skis. A 33m radius ski is a serious ski meant for those that Full Send every run and this ski doesn't disappoint. Turning push piles into poppy little playground accessories is a joy.With a very silly and amazing top sheet, this is truly an amazing ski for serious skiers that ski serious terrain (and the runs to get you there).Every second I'm on them they wisper "just send it". . . . . . . .

Buckle up butter cup. These aren’t for the faint of heart.

I bought the Chipotle Banana’s after searching for a fun pow ski that wants to charge hard and not chatter in the chunder (a frequent issue for me entering my 30’s and coming to terms with the fact that beer is in fact not a salad and I do need to stretch my knees before skiing). Before I got a single turn in I got no less than four complements on my skis in the parking lot and lift line. I’d finally made it. A one way shot to popularity at my local mountain. All that aside these might be the best ski I’ve ever had. It turns on a dime, handles deep powder, groomers, chop like it doesn’t even exist, and everything else I’ve thrown at them so far. Super excited to get them out in a seriously deep day soon and unleash them to their full potential. 10/10 if anything but them to get told how cool your skis are leaning against the rack at the bar.

An indellible gift from the ski gods. Truly a divine blessing. Half ski, half mythical chariot, this thing rips. Waited years to actually get one, wish I had one from the womb. This thing is unstoppable, and hilarious, and is worth every penny. When I want a good time, this is the ski I grab, conditions be damned. There’s a reason everyone loves it…

I initially thought the 186cm length was going to be overkill for my 5'9", 145lb frame. Boy was I wrong. These skis are a revelation. The balance of power and control is unlike anything I have ever experienced. I have them mounted with the Voyager binding and drive them with the Dynafit Radical Pro, honestly, the perfect setup for just about anything. With a pair of fast gliding pink Pomocas they skin far better than you would ever imagine. All that rocker and waist that makes the descent so fun makes trail breaking equally pleasurable (almost). Perhaps what I have been most surprised by is how at home they feel on week old moldy leftovers in the resort. With the obvious exception of steep and icy/firm conditions, the Chipotle Bananas reign supreme. I took them to Japan this past season as my one pair for everything and it was absolutely the perfect choice. Splendid.

This ski will answer any and all potential questions presented to you on any given day without having to say anything.Who is that? - A better skiier than youWhat skis are those? - Better looking skis than yoursHow big is the turn radius? - Yes

Prob will not be able to get these out for the season but I’m here because I skied the Meridians this season (off the Halloween release). Wasn’t sure how I’d like the no camber profile - after a season now I really enjoyed skiing the 187 Meridians. Great for powder, moguls, and trees. Hence came my decision to grab a pair of CB in 193. I skied one day on Meridians in 10 inches powder and envisioned having the CB for that type of day and bigger. I also have 190 DW and 194 Commander 108 from the prior year for different conditions (6’2” 170lbs on tele Freerides). Needless to say I’m hooked on moment skis and use all of them for various conditions. Dew it.

These will film bangers. Charge, slash, and drop panties. Rockerrrrrd out

super fun fast skis, surprisingly easy to turn for such a big long ski. also surprisingly light. topsheet is awesome and i get compliments on it everywhere i go

These things are big, bad, and like to party. Sure, full rocker let’s them make tight turns where needed to navigate trees and rock bands, but they really just want to roll the windows down, crank the Def Leppard up to 11 and go fast. Like really fast for a big pow ski. They’re stiff enough handle it, stomp landings and blow through crud in a way that would make Chuck Morris proud.

These boards rip in the POW! 🤘

So far so good! Have had a few mixed and a few pow days. Mounted them -2 as I’m old and don’t ski on the tails like all the new schoolers. They’re solid sticks and you can ski them aggressively throughout the flex of the ski. Didn’t experience any tip dive and even @-2 I didn’t feel like the sweet spot was too small. Fun playful solid and besides the COMI my favorite Moment yet

Get yourself a pair of these skis. Hands down the most fun I’ve ever had on two boards strapped to my feet. These things will take you wherever you want to go on the mountain with ease on a pow or crud day. Not to mention the amount of attention you’ll attract all day in lift lines. It’ll be hard to keep the snow bunnies away. Do yourself a favor and get a pair of these sooner rather than later, because i have a feeling it’s going to be a deep winter..

I love these skis, they are hard charging and the graphics are amazing too… you’ll get a ton of compliments with them. I skied them at vail for my first time and they were great in the choppy powder and I was instantly so confident on them that I decided to throw a backflip off a 30 ft cliff and almost stomped it. 10/10 would definately recommend

Loved the skiis in both fresh and torn up powder.

It’s a fine ski nothing wrong with it at all

Such an awesome ski. Super stiff, nice and heavy, still maneuverable and super stomp-able. Feels like you're skiing pow on god-mode. I'm 5'11 and went with 186. Would have been just as happy with the longer ones; if you're reading this, 186 is not too much for you.

These things are unstoppable throw in 6 inch plus of snow and you can crush the mtn
