Free Binding Mounting: We will mount your ski bindings for free whenever you order skis and bindings. If you order boots, too, we can adjust them so they are ready to hit the slopes right out of the box! Just be sure to fill out the mounting form that comes up after checkout.
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.''
Ideal Target Skier: West Coast All Mountain Skier: Skiers on the west coast will enjoy this ski as an all mountain, do everything model, while skiers on the east coast will find this more suitable for powder skiing, or when there is chopped up crud to be had.
Wood Core: The standard core which has throughout time provided the best performance and durability. Each model may have it's own density level to help define flex and maximum speed but every wood core ski will be solid.
Sintered Base: The material used for the base is harder, and therefore more durable than other options (Extruded). This material should be waxed regularly for best performance.
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.
Flat Sandwich Construction: This ski was designed with Flat Sandwich construction with pre-preg carbon and an ultralight engineered wood core which you'll notice is insanely lightweight. Sandwich construction gives the ski a responsive even flex as well.
Optimized Construction: This ski features BD's Optimized Construction where the structure of the ski keeps it one of the lightest touring skis available today.
Skin Notch: There is a notch in the tail of the ski that helps the clip of climbing skins stay in place. It doesn't change the skiing characteristics of the ski at all, but it is pretty nice to have if you tour in the backcountry.
