Dynastar Touring Vertical 2018/19
Last winter, Dynastar's touring skis were brought under one roof. Now the range has been further expanded and divided into the "Mythic" line for backcountry enthusiasts and the "Vertical" line for classic ski tourers. The three male Vertical models were introduced to the market last winter.
Vertical Eagle
Vertical Deer
Vertical Bear
Ski technologies
Cell & Paulownia wood core
The vertical DYNACELL and PAULOWNIA strips, developed for lightweight free touring skis, allow a featherweight core construction for the ultimate mix of ultra-light energy, shock absorption and stability. DYNACELL technology, known from aeronautics, is a gas-filled, closed PVC structure with an excellent stability-to-weight ratio for more energy, ultra-light shock absorption and stability. Paulownia wood cores are typically 25% lighter than common wood cores.
Paulownia wood core
Paulownia wood core reduces the weight of the ski by about 25%. Dynastar combines this wood with fiberglass developed by the racing department to ensure optimum ride and control.
Tip Rocker
The ski has only a moderate rocker on the shovel. The lift is moderate so that the ski maintains contact with the snow over the entire edge length. The ski turns more easily on the flat and is more tolerant in the turns.
100% Carbon Fiber (Carbon Fiber)
Carbon as a Formula 1 fiber guarantees additional stability at ultra-light weight and optimize ski-snow contact.
Carbon Ply
After several years of research, Dynastar has developed a new generation of carbon fiber that will be incorporated into its touring skis. The ultra-light diagonal C-PLY carbon fabric is designed for the high-performance touring skis and is specifically tuned to the width of the ski by allowing the glass fibers to expand and contract for a soft, balanced flex with feather-light hardness and grip.
Sandwich
The ski is made in sandwich construction, in which the ski core (usually wood, rarely foam) is pressed together in the middle with overlying and underlying layers of various materials (fiberglass, fiberglass, carbon, titanal, etc.) to form a ski. Vertical sidewalls are used along the entire length of the ski. This construction guarantees optimal edge grip, balance and good power transmission.
Middle Sidewall
MIDDLE SIDEWALL construction with vertical sidewalls centered under the binding for stability and trustworthy edge grip. CAP construction at ski tip and tail for lighter turning weight and more comfortable turn initiation and exit.
Full Sidewall
The FULL SIDEWALL construction has a vertical sidewall along the entire length of the ski to provide optimal edge grip, precision, balance and performance.
