Radical Freeride

The handmade freeride model from Radical is aimed at confirmed deep snow lovers and seamlessly connects to the typical strengths of Radical's carbon-based skis. After the great success of last winter's newly launched "One of Ten" model, another "One of Ten" model with a new design is coming to the market this winter.

Description
The absolute all-rounder with a focus on freeriding in powder. High speeds as well as meters deep snow can be mastered easily. Thanks to its classic bias, it brings full performance and good grip even in harsh and rough conditions. The pronounced V-shape with the tip rocker makes it sporty and forgiving. On the slopes, it pulls quickly and directly into the next turn when edging and holds perfectly and smoothly on the edges thanks to triple triax torsion reinforcement. Tours become a pure pleasure because of the low weight. The high-quality and structured top sheet protects the ski and makes it robust against external influences. The Freerider also offers a great advantage for extreme carving in brackish and wet snow. Fun and freedom until the end of the season.

Description
Skiing big mountain means skiing long lines and playing with different conditions and variable terrain. The right big mountain ski should be powerful, versatile, precise and fast, so that you can take full advantage of the whole mountain.

Our One of Ten ski this year has become just such a big mountain model bursting with power and makes freerider and tourer hearts beat faster. It was developed for the experienced riders who will take on exactly these demanding conditions.

The design follows the motto "Nature meets Hightech": a full layer of carbon, finished with beautiful apple tree veneer makes this ski an absolute beauty. The ultra-solid, matt-textured epoxy surface protects the ski against external influences. The 3D embossing to it is a beautiful detail, not too flashy but still striking.

From a technical point of view, no effort was spared in the choice of materials. Cross carbon in the lower chord and upper chord, as well as an additional upper chord reinforcement with triaxial fiberglass provide the desired stiffness. For optimal smoothness, direct edge change and power transmission, a carbon Kevlar web was installed. So it almost goes without saying that this ski was also equipped with the fastest running surface.

This year's One of Ten was developed with our team rider Andri Ambühl. His feedback on it: "The ski just looks top, I like it a lot and I think the design is unique and close to nature. That's why it fits so perfectly: we are in nature in search of untouched steep slopes and the unique downhill experience. Because the ski is so light, you have much more energy when driving and do not burn it unnecessarily during the hikeup. Through the ski you quickly become a master on a variety of terrain. I was able to test the One of Ten in different snow conditions and find it highly variable. It responds very sensitively to your commands, which makes it a power machine at the highest level: the racing ski among powder skis. It brings a lot of energy to the surface when driving, which makes it extremely fast and gives the driver a great feeling on the snow. I can highly recommend the ski, because it gives you a thrill that you don't feel until you ride it."

Designed and manufactured to 100% in the Radical workshop, the ski combines the most advanced technology with top design. This ski is produced only once in a mini edition. So do not miss this opportunity.
