FEATURES

Studio progressive twin
Features a slightly wider tip and narrower tail for enhanced downhill performance compared to a symmetrical twin, while identical tip and tail height maintain switch-skiing capability. Generous rocker and modest camber provide a playful feel, with moderate taper and an Elliptical Sidecut ensuring precise handling and carving.

Poplar core
Durable, medium-weight wood that balances flex, vibration absorption, and stability. Provides lively pop, reliable grip, and torsional strength both in the park and on the descent.

Carbon stringers
Unidirectional carbon strips integrated into the fiberglass improve strength, stiffness, and ski stability along the full length without adding excess weight.

Boat flex
Stiffer tips and tails combined with a softer midsection deliver high-speed stability, maximum pop, and powerful aerial control.

Elliptical sidecut
Longer radius underfoot with shorter radii in the tip and tail enables smooth pivots, easy turn initiation, and versatility across a range of skiing styles.

Carbon and rubber stomp pad
600mm carbon and rubber inlay strengthens the ski underfoot, protects the core from heavy impacts, and improves vibration absorption for stable landings.

Recycled materials
Base, sidewall, and topsheet scraps are recycled into raw material, lowering emissions while maintaining durability and quality.

XL 2.5mm edges
Edges 25% wider than the industry standard provide improved durability and longer ski life under demanding use.

Full strength sidewall
Reinforced sidewall improves edge hold and protects the core, topsheet, and edges from impacts and wear.

Anti-chip Micro Cap
Protects delicate tip and tail areas where topsheet meets sidewall, reducing chipping and enhancing long-term durability.
