Strengths:
Stable, stable and stable
Weaknesses:
Slowly cut at low speeds. Not particularly easy. Hard and stiff.
Summary:
Whitedot Ragnarök feels like the definition of a charger. Feels like a cross-country ski run on "anabolic" (which is basically what it is). Definitely not a ski run for everybody, but if you want to drive faster and harder than most others, you have a really safe buddy who will never surprise you, except maybe it keeps its safe behavior even when it starts going really fast.
This is the light, soft version of Ragnarök ... but oh, it's not noticeable when compared to most of the market. It feels like a rigid, heavily skid with a waist of 120 mm and a radius of 37 meters is expected to be done. Put it on edge and it's going to be safe and stable anyway in big (really big) turns, the faster it goes, the fun it will be. With their stiffness and long radius, they are light-loaded (to be 120mm) and totally predictable in cord wings, but it's definitely an advantage if you're +85kg and / or have a lot of muscle mass to resist.
In summary: If you are used to a pair of soft lightweight rockers, these skis may feel very demanding. If you are "old school" and want to drive big and fast, you can squeeze some short wings when needed, this might be the right tool. I have trouble believing that these skies are turning to someone, ever ...
(I spend about 50 days each winter on the mountain (and have done so for over 30 years) both piste and opist. Romme Alpin, Sälen, Trysil, Åre, Riksgränsen, the Alps etc.)
Riding style: whatever
Length on the ski: 193 cm
Riders weight: 95 kg
