Ski technology
Minicap sandwich
The ultra-strong construction appears with wood core, 30° sidewalls, fiberglass and high-tech laminates. The Mini Caps protect the ski tips and prevent damage with improved durability. The sidewalls are 30′ turned up, which improves swing weight and reduces overall ski weight for better edge grip and resistance.
Prop Tech
Developed in accordance with the new FIS regulations of curve radii, the Prop Tech is a transversal Skiflex release system. The vertical milled grooves in the metal laminate, provide a more adaptable torsional flex for more control, smoother turn initiation, more direct power transmission and improved edge contact.
Cascade Tip
Varying lengths of metal and fiberglass laminates staggered through the ski tip provide lighter outer areas and help control tip torsion for smoother turn initiation and improved full edge contact. The lighter tips improve the swing weight of the ski and provide fast and adaptable turn initiation.
Power Turn Rocker
The conventional high chamber through 90% of the ski length provides power and edge grip for explosive bite and lift. The fine rocker tip over the remaining 10%, delivers easier turn initiation and control.
Poplar wood core
Carbon
Formula 1 of fibers, the ultra-light carbon fibers have mechanical properties and guarantee outstanding strength, support and stability for unique skiing pleasure.
