Radical Carver, 2018/19

Radical Carver

Radical carver models are a small series of handcrafted carver skis made with precision and passion in the production facility in Zurich. Radical uses Kevlar-carbon sandwich construction as its unique design. No other manufacturer does this. This also makes the skis unique in the way they ride. This winter, the "New Carver" will be launched.

Race Carver

We have developed the Race Carver for very sporty skiers who do not want to compromise on speed, edge grip and smoothness. Its strengths are fast carving with high smoothness and with variable carving radii at all times. The strong V-shape guides the Race Carver into the turn immediately after edging and then allows it to continue perfectly on the edge.

The Titanal-Carbon-Kevlar construction developed by us gives it a very high torsional strength and an extremely lively back speed behavior. The "NHS Graphite Race" World Cup running surface also makes this top ski extremely slippery, very fast and easy to turn. A true speed machine!

We have completely redesigned the New Carver ski: More sporty, more direct and more sustainable. They are characterized by high smoothness and carving radii that can be varied at any time with little effort.

A torsion reinforcement with quadruple Quadrax inserts and the pure carbon topsheet provide liveliness, good edge grip and tracking. A layer of Kevlar dampens shocks and vibrations better, makes the ski cuddly, quiet and thus also more grippy and faster. The pronounced V-shape reduces dangerous swimming and breaking out of the ski when driving straight ahead and also initiates turns lightning fast.

At the request of many customers, we have equipped the carver with aluminum rear protectors that guarantee optimum protection when parked. The noble, structured and high-quality top sheet film together with the semi-cap construction makes the ski extremely robust against external influences. The new timeless design also makes it an absolute eye-catcher.

A noble, structured and high-quality top sheet foil makes the ski even more robust against external influences and an absolute eye-catcher. The 157 cm length is also available in black look.
