Movement Touring, 2015/16

Movement Touring

Movement, the ski manufacturer from western Switzerland, offers a comprehensive touring range this winter. Whether classic ski touring or backcountry adventures, you will find what you are looking for at Movement. A fresh, unconventional design and a wide variety of technologies and geometries ensure a broad selection. Movement has become big with this segment and freeride, so it is not surprising that two more lines (Alp Tracks, X-Series) are available.

Ecological wood cores

The wood core is of capital importance. It not only brings the ski to life, but also gives it the longevity of its predefined criteria, which vary depending on the area of use (piste freeride freestyle touring). We continue to purchase only FCS and PEFC certified wood (www.fcs.org, www.pefc.org). Currently the following wood species are processed: Beech, Okume, Poplar, EPL Poplar light, Light Karuba, and Ultra light Karuba Selection. Each wood core is weighed according to selective criteria in order to fit perfectly into the production.

MLT - Multiaxial Light Technology

We have developed new types of fiberglass consisting of an elaborated triaxial fiberglass-carbon complex which replaces the classic fiberglass in some models.
This fiber, developed by our engineers (MLT by MOVEMENT), is used in all Touring and Free Touring models to increase the
increase general stability of the ski

North TPT

This complex of taped fibers continues to be the most important component of the X-SERIES, in which the weight factor plays an enormous role. The process is improved year after year and is the leading technology in fast touring and alpine skiing. This technical process of taping different fibers, unique in the world, is used in many industrial sectors (airplanes, automobiles, shipping...) where weight saving and maximum performance are top priorities. Every year we adapt our skis to the latest developments and acquired results. Our observations during the last years have shown that all skis with this technology have an excellent stability of the pre-stress and do not show any deformations despite the aging. In the most stressed areas, on the sidewalls in the binding area, special taped fiber layers have been used to make the ski even more shock resistant. MOVEMENT has an exclusive right to use this technology in the ski sector.

Light Rocker

The Light Rocker in the shovel, with numbers between 6 and 12 indicating the average length of the rocker opening, provides excellent absorption of bumps in the terrain and in different snow qualities, as well as easy and progressive turn release. The bias in the middle of the ski and the tail give excellent stability and grip.

Twin Rocker

In the Twin Rocker, the tip and tail are raised and extended, which gives the ski an easier turning ability, as well as optimal carrying capacity and handling in powder snow. The ski still has a large snow contact of the edges and a bias in the center of the ski for better stability and grip.

Cap Performance

With this system we connect the upper and lower layers of the ski from front to back for weight reduction in touring skis.

CTS Light

CONTROL TORSION SYSTEM Light

With the new 3D Light Cap ABS Sidewall construction, the ABS is incorporated directly into the wood core and thus functions as reinforcement.

With this system we achieve weight optimization in contrast to the classic CTS. Therefore, this design is used in some Free Touring and Freeride models.
