Meidjo vs. Lynx? - Backcountry Talk

Loved Dostie's review (http://www.earnyourturns.com/35260/review-22ds-lynx-2-pin-tele-binding/) of the Lynx - thank you! Given my time on the outlaw, that's what I expected - excellence. Recognizing the potential pressures not to compare, can we get any direct pro and con Meidjo vs. Lynx from...

I am way to scared to tele

It looks like with the Meidjo you can wuss out and lock the heel if need be.

BO?

I can 't compare the two and don't have enough tele experience/knowledge if I could, but did demo the meidjo 2(?) last season and it was a blast. I felt like a tele pro and like Riptz said you can ski it parallel or tele. Gonna stick with my 3 pins for a few more seasons to build some skilz but will likely build a nice tele touring setup in the next few years.

Maybe check and see if the Fey Bro's have any demo days coming?

Side note the SummitCones ski'd really nice too!

or E) All of the above?

So who else is planning to earn their turns this season and avoid the Covid crowds? Did you buy new gear? Or do you have AT or Tele gear already? What is your setup and where do you plan to ski?

So because Snowflake set this up to include AT and tele, I'll use this thread for any earned turns I get.

My two best from today's front page piece.

Nice. I recently created a .kmz gps file utilizing the old trail map.
