 Discounted Ski Bindings: Lowest price and now discounteds bindings for these skis. Click the dropdown above but we have some awesome older binding models for 2012 skis only for a limited time. We aren't kidding.. check the first few binding options and don't dawdle supplies are limited.
Ideal Target Skier: Powder Hound: If you use your sick days only when it snows 12'' or more overnight and not when you're actually sick, this ski is probably for you. Powder Hounds are on the search for deep and untouched powder, and fat skis to ski it with. Skier Ability: Advanced to Expert: Skipping the blue runs to get to the black runs, but sometimes a little cautious when it gets very steep, or some hesitation when your buddy says, ''You just have to clear those rocks or else you're toast.'' Speed: Very Fast: Skiing at this speed means keeping up with the best skiers on the mountain, while still maintaining control. Liberty Core: These skis feature strips of bamboo and poplar, bonded together to make a high performance core. Bamboo is lightweight, durable, and has a lot of rebound to spring into the next turn or off a jump. The poplar adds a consistent feel to the skis and helps the camber shape stay the same after frequent use. Both materials added together give a smooth, yet responsive ski that is environmentally friendly.  Sandwich Construction (SW): SW means that the sides of the skis are a vertical wall rather the rounded Cap construction found on most skis. Since none of the skis material needs to be exerting force maintaining shape at the edges, SW skis are stiffer than their Cap counterparts. Most people find SW skis to be damper, that is more glued to the snow, superior at high speed GS turns and top notch at busting through crud or choppy snow.
Cab Forward Stance: These skis come with multiple mounting points, with the modern and preferred mark labeled as 'Cab Forward.' This gets the skier's weight over the center of the ski, and allows for quicker turning and better balance for spins and flips. The standard mounting point is recommended for all mountain skiers, and the center mounting point is for dedicated park skiers. Fiber Reinforced polymer: This material is added to the ski in the binding mounting area to give extra hold for the binding screws and to stiffen the mid section of the ski. HRC 48 Edges: The HRC 48 edges are treated for greater hardness to resist damage from obstacles found in and above the snow. The larger anchors keep the edges in place and spread impact force over a greater area within the ski. UHMW Sidewall: This stands for Ultra High Molecular Weight, which basically means that the sidewall material is just like the base material. The benefits of an UHMW sidewall is that it is almost impossible to crack, it is resistant to scratches, and if it is damaged, it can easily be repaired. ISO Topsheet: This topsheet resists scratches and chips, and gives clean, crisp graphics for others to admire. 78 Degree sidewalls: The slant of the sidewall is set to 78 degrees, which Liberty has found to be the best angle to reduce the chance of topsheet chipping while still putting most of the weight and force over the edge during a turn. This translates to better edge hold on firm snow and ice. P-Tex 2000: The base material for this ski is hard and resistant to scratches and dings from rocks or anything else hiding under the snow. A hard base also translates to a fast glide, so get ready to hold on!  Tip Rocker: This refers to the early rising of the tip to get the ski on top of the soft snow, rather than pushing through it. When the skis are held with the bases together, it will look like the tips are bent, and spread away from eachother. Tip rocker also helps skiers pivot the skis, making tight trees remarkably easy, and gives the ski a surf-like feel.
 Tail Rocker: Just like Tip rocker, but in the tail, this feature allows the tails of the skis to release easier from the turn to give the skier the ability to turn the skis quicker in tight spots. It also allows skiers to dump speed by forcing the tails out and sliding sideways. The effective edge is reduced because of the tail rocker, so the skis will also be easier to control when forced to ski on the groomed slopes.
Liberty Skis: has been around for several years, making performance twin tip skis suitable for a wide range of skiers and skiing abilities. What's different about Liberty that sets them apart from most, if not all independent ski manufacturers is their commitment to the environment. They have picked Bamboo as their main core material for its performance qualities, but also because of its nature to quickly regenerate. Within a year, a plant is ready to harvest again while hardwoods still need at least another 10 years to regenerate. Liberty also uses windpower for all energy needs from lights in the office to ski production in the factory.
Being green sometimes takes away from the quality and performance of a product, but fortunately, Liberty has found a great balance. They consistently produce quality freeride skis while showing the rest of the ski industry how it should be done environmentally. Quadaxial Fiberglass Weave: You've heard of biaxial and triaxial fiber weaves used to give skis more torsional rigidity without adding weight or metal layers to the ski...well Liberty upped the ante-QUADaxial fiberglass weave makes these skis stiff and solid without being heavy. If you are buying a ski and binding to mount, we will install the necessary fat brake arms at no additional charge, you do not need to add them to you order. Demo imprint: Our last ski in each size has 'DEMO' engraved at mount plate area. The ski is exactly the same as any other and is perfect brand new, we just bought it for our Demo fleet. But as you may have heard snow in Utah came pretty late and it was too costly to mount these up. More Info About Powder Skis: Looking to learn more about this, and other powder skis?
