Product Details
Rocker Type: These skis feature an innovative Amphibio Profile with an Asymmetrical Design. This groundbreaking design integrates both rocker and camber profiles into dedicated left and right skis. On the inside edge, there's a cambered profile that ensures precision, edge grip, and stability. Meanwhile, the outside edge is rockered, providing forgiveness, ease in turning, and smooth transitions.
Core: The core of these skis is crafted with a Tubelite Wood Core. This core innovation involves the insertion of two super lightweight Carbon tubes into a laminated wood core. These 5mm diameter hollow tubes follow the arc of the side cut along the length of the ski. They enhance torsional stability, offer powerful rebound, and reduce core material. The result is an incredibly lightweight ski that maintains responsiveness and stability.
Laminates: These skis incorporate advanced technologies, including:
Carbon Line Technology: This combines lightweight construction with power and performance. Carbon reinforcement is strategically placed over the inside edges of the skis for enhanced turning power, and carbon rods inserted into the woodcore maximize weight savings and overall stability. This results in an extremely lightweight, high-performance ski with versatility and smooth performance.
Vapor Tip Inserts: These advanced composites are integrated into the ski's tip and tail core areas. They reduce weight and vibration, greatly improving stability and ensuring a smooth ride even in challenging conditions.
Fiberglass: Fiberglass reinforcement optimizes the ski's flex pattern and enhances its torsional rigidity. The fibers are strategically positioned either above or below the ski core, enhancing structural integrity.
Carbon Rods: Lightweight Carbon tubes are inserted into the ski, following the arc of the side cut. These carbon tubes provide torsional stability and powerful rebound while reducing core material, resulting in an incredibly lightweight, responsive, and stable ski.
Sidewalls: The ski construction includes SST Sidewall Construction, which offers quick, nimble power transmission from the ski to the snow, along with exceptional torsional rigidity.
Base: The base of these skis is made from Sintered UHMW (Ultra-High Molecular Weight) material, known for its durability and performance.
Binding Compatibility: For bindings, it's recommended to choose a brake width that matches the ski waist width or is at most 15 mm wider. This ensures a proper fit and compatibility between the skis and bindings, enhancing performance and safety.
