The 2025 Dynastar M-Pro 98 is a no-nonsense all-mountain charger for skiers who want the precision of a frontside ski with the guts to explore far beyond the corduroy. With a 98mm waist, directional shape, and metal-reinforced construction, the M-Pro 98 blends power, agility, and versatility in a way that makes it feel right at home just about anywhere on the mountain.

The secret sauce lies in Dynastar’s Hybrid Core technology—combining poplar wood with polyurethane to deliver a smooth, damp ride that still has plenty of snap and life. A Titanal Rocket Frame reinforces the ski underfoot and along the edges, giving it impressive edge hold and stability without turning it into a plank. It’s powerful and precise, but it doesn’t demand constant aggression—just a confident skier who likes to push.

On snow, the M-Pro 98 is composed at speed and razor-sharp on edge. It feels solid and predictable through crud, plows through variable conditions, and loves to arc medium to long turns with authority. The tip rocker helps it stay maneuverable in tight spots and gives it a bit of float in soft snow, though this ski is definitely more of a hard-charging directional ride than a surfy freestyle twin. If you’re hunting side hits and tail presses, this probably isn’t your match—but if you want to drop into a chute and open it up, it absolutely delivers.

The 2025 version sees only minor updates—primarily graphics and some subtle tweaks to the flex balance for smoother turn initiation. Dynastar didn’t mess with the formula too much, and for good reason: this ski has carved out a reputation for being one of the more confidence-inspiring, powerful options in the 98mm category.

Compared to skis like the Blizzard Rustler 9 or Volkl M6 Mantra, the M-Pro 98 feels more planted and precise, a bit less playful but with superior composure in variable conditions and on steeps. It’s the kind of ski that rewards technical input and charges without feeling punishing—ideal for advanced to expert skiers who want one ski that can handle hardpack, chop, and light pow all in one day.

Bottom line: the 2025 Dynastar M-Pro 98 is a fast, stable, and confidence-boosting all-mountain ski that’s built for serious skiers who like to turn it up a notch. It’s not flashy—it just performs.
