This is my first pair of Shaggys! I bought them during the summer sale. I am pretty new to skiing. I started 2 and half years ago, To spend quality time with my daughter who rides a snowboard. I knew that snowboarding wasn't for me. I took ski lessons, and was absolutely hooked! I learned pretty quick, and went from rentals to buying all new equipment. My first skis were Volkl deacons, and I really liked them, but out grew them very quickly. I learned about Shaggys from watching a Mount Bohemia YouTube video of the Shaggys family vacation, and knew right then I had to own some Shaggys skis. I went to Caberfae on a demo day, and skied the Ahmeek 95s. I liked them, but I needed something a little narrower in the waist to turn easier, and get up on the edges. I love to put my shins right in the tongues of my boots, and go! ,and get aggressive. I haven't been on my new skis yet, because it is summer, but from what I'm seeing the attention to detail, and craftsmanship are something you won't find on mass produced brand name skis. Hurry up winter!
The Mohawk 98's are an incredible ski. I could ride them all day in any conditions and have a great day.
I love my Mohawk 98s. Got them with custom graphics. While I have yet to ski all conditions I have taken them on groomers, some deep powder, and some mashed potatoes in warmer weather. They are just a dream to ski on. So glad I chose Shaggys for my new ski purchase and their recommendation for the Mowhawk 98s.
These are amazing!!!! And quite the head turner where I ski in Europe.
Out of all the skis and conditions I’ve rode in my life, nothing compares to riding these in 12” of fresh powder. Best day of my life and these held up amazing on the harder pack too.
Amazing skis amazing company!
The brockway 90s absolutely rip through crud and soft snow like it’s nothing. The build quality is amazing, you can tell how much effort goes into these skis. I highly recommend these for any skier who loves to carve but also wants to play in conditions that aren’t ideal.
To be honest I haven't skied the new iterations of The tubby. I have an older model but I think the basics are the same. Obviously with a 120 they are going to float. They ski very short with the amount of rocker in them. They are extremely nimble in the trees when you have at least three inches of snow. They are capable carvers on hard pack when transitioning out of the powder. They are my favorite spring ski because of the wide stance it is really fun to lay them over and you never boot out meaning you don't get snow slap that will slap you out of your skis in spring crud. They lay huge trenches and with that huge rocker tip they absorb the bumps. This ski is a must-have in your quiver I'm on it in the spring pretty much every day.
Warm and lightweight, great for post skiing helmet hair!
Next generation all mountain skis. You will be a better skier with Shaggy’s Fun Carver 88. Ski the East!
Now you know.
Got a pair of the Mohawk 98s to hit the backcountry here in the PNW. They float when you need them to and shine on consolidated conditions, too. Love these new boards!
I had a chance to demo these this spring. WHAT A BLAST! The big shovel on the front gives just the right float for all conditions - pow, crud, corn, mashed taters. The tail is the after burner. Get these babys on the groomed, and they carve like nothing I’ve been on. Already got a pair on order!
Message to the Shaggy's crew during my first day on the Fun Carver: "I'm throwing away all my other skis. These are sick."
I now have 2 pair with custom graphics packages and burn marks on my snow pants from all the hip dragging...
That sums it up...

Fast, sharp & snappy. These are my 2nd (of 3) pairs of Shaggy's, my LIGHTEST & definitely my everyday ride in most Midwest conditions. A big change from my Medora 105. My 85's RIP a groomer, as expected & holds an edge/turn confidently. Handles some soft powder excellently, as well. She is not quite as forgiving as my Medora 105, offering a little more pop & energy. However still just as fun given the right skiing ability & conditions. Of my 3 skis, these would be the pair I'd recommend to most skiers & conditions. She does it all & does it well.
My first pair (of 3) Shaggy's & probably my favorite. I actually got these in a carbon fiber core to offset the heavy AT bindings setup I have on them. I've rode these 5 seasons now. I primarily ski in the Upper Penninsula but they have also been out west. I feel I can face & take on anything with these, truly my ride or die. These are a powerful ski & therefore are not meant for a beginner. BUT I took these out west they will power through EVERYTHING with ease. From any & all variations of powders while also preforming phenomenally in groomers. Very stable underfoot with a wider turning radius but easily controlled. They're not my everyday whip, because not everyday calls for these. But I know that they'll always be a fun, confident ride at my skiing ability & pulling a toboggan. Side note, they also survived an accident (100% my fault) that resulted in a broken leg. The skis were fine.
These are my 3rd pair of skis by Shaggy's, following my Medora 105 & Belle 85. My Medora 95's are actually my Telemark setup & I'm still learning, after regular alpine skiing for 20 years. I primarily ski the Upper Penninsula & these THRIVE on fresh groomers & light powder. They're very light & easily controlled through turns & crud. Very excited to gain more experience & memories on these for seasons to come!
I'm 5'11 and 190lbs, and I'm 52 years old. I purchased these skis primarily for accessing more terrain at my favorite Yooper hill. My old 108's that I use to ski in Alaska were too long for the bus and difficult to maneuver in the trees and narrow shoots, especially in crappy conditions. My Ahmeek 105's at 180cm however, not only allowed me to gain better access, but rip nearly every condition that I've encountered over the last two seasons like nothing I'd ever imagined before. My buddies have tried to convince me that I'm just a good skier, but I'm pretty sure it's the skis. They're light and playful and with a stiff boot, I can push forward and carve the groomers and slash trough mashed taters like I only wish I could have 30 years ago. The length, width and rocker make for a super forgiving ski in the steep glades and shoots and keep me floating high and linking turns from top to bottom without fatigue. That's saying something. In closing, I love these skis and wish it was endless winter!
Great skis! Great customer service!
Loved using my Shaggy's Limited Series Ski Patrol skis. Not only could I ski everything I threw at it, its design is perfect for getting to patients, sled transportation, and anything else needed for patrol duty. I highly encourage you to get your's today. You won't be disappointed.
Ordered a pair of Ahmeek 105s last Sat. They arrived on Wed. Had Look Pivot bindings installed on Thurs. Skied Breck on Fri. Conditions were pretty much dust on hard crust. Skis did really well. Carvers would have been better but they were stable and performed well.
Saturday we had 8” of powder.These skis were incredible making fresh tracks in Horseshoe Bowl and Six Senses. The skis float really well, but also cut through the crud that you get late in the day on powder days. Did not try them in moguls, but will let you know when I do.
Very pleased with Shaggy’s customer service and with the skis.
Belle 90's, with custom graphics, celebrate Soring Break 2023 at Deer Valley, Utah.. Mom and daughter, Kelly Paige and Morgan Nowicki.
