• POPLAR / ASH WOOD & FIBERGLASS CORE: Poplar is a light-colored, durable softwood that flexes and pops nicely as well as having great vibration absorption capabilities. Ash is a heavier hardwood, that complements Poplar by adding stiffness and durability. This duo provides excellent hold on hard snow, a solid base for stomping landings and enough pop and flex to get creative with. They're set between two layers of fiberglass for strength, rigidity and durability.
• CARBON AND RUBBER STOMP PAD: A carbon/rubber reinforcement underfoot adds strength where it matters most. In addition to protecting the wood core from heavy-duty impacts, it adds stability and vibration absorption under your boots, so stomping landings feel better; both for you and your skis.
• SINTERED BASE
• ELLIPTICAL SIDECUT: Elliptical Sidecut is made up of a longer radius underfoot and shorter radius in the tip and tail of the ski. The long radius underfoot means you can pivot faster and easier, while a shorter radius in the tip and tail result in easier turn initiation. This sidecut allows for a wide variety of turn lengths, angles and mounting positions
• MUSTACHE FLEX: The "Mustache Flex" offers stability underfoot for solid edge hold, with a smooth, progressive flex in the tips and tails to easily absorb all the different bumps and snow debris the mountain throws at you.
• ALL-MOUNTAIN TWIN TIP: A considerably skinnier tail width than in the tip provides ultimate downhill performance for attacking the mountain. A twin tip in the tail encourages playfulness and freestyle attitude, meaning you can ride switch with ease.
• RECYCLED MATERIALS: We work closely with production partners to eliminate material waste. We mix base and sidewall material scraps back into the raw material used for production, reducing carbon emissions and maintaining the same level of quality & durability.
• LOCALLY SOURCED MATERIALS: To reduce the impact of our production supply chain, we strive to source materials from European companies that are based close our factories. Reduce distance, reduce emissions, reduce impact.
• 100% RENEWABLE ENERGY FACTORY: Our skis are crafted in a state-of-the-art facility powered entirely by renewable electricity and heated with biomass energy.
• 100% RECYCLED SIDEWALLS: Made entirely from recycled material, delivering the same strength and durability with less production waste.
