product features
Poplar Core
Poplar is a light-colored, medium-weight, and durable softwood with excellent flex and vibration absorption. It enhances performance by providing impressive pop, buttering, and stability. Poplar ensures skis offer exceptional grip and torsional stability on the downhill and in the park.
Carbon stringers
Ski light and stable with 8-12 unidirectional carbon strips on either side of the wood core. These are seamlessly woven into the fiberglass, boosting ski stability without adding bulk. Reap the benefits of strength & stiffness throughout the full length of your skis with minimal weight penalty.
Carbon and Rubber Stomp Pad
A 600mm-long, 15mm-wide carbon & rubber inlay adds strength where it matters most. Protecting not only the wood core from heavy-duty impacts, it adds stability and vibration absorption under your boots, so that stomped landings feel better, both for you and your skis.
Recycled Materials
We work closely with production partners to eliminate material waste. We mix base, sidewall and topsheet material scraps back into the raw material used for production, reducing carbon emissions and maintaining the same level of quality & durability.
Locally Sourced Materials
To reduce the impact of our production supply chain, we strive to source materials from European companies that are based close our factories. Reduce distance, reduce emissions, reduce impact.
100% Renewable Energy Factory
Our skis are crafted in a state-of-the-art facility powered entirely by renewable electricity and heated with biomass energy. By eliminating oil use, our production process cuts millions of kilograms of CO2 emissions annually. Eco-friendly performance with every run.
XL 2.5mm Edges
A ski's edge is critical to its performance and handling. Our skis are crafted with XL edges that are 25% wider than the industry average. They're built to last.
Full Strength Sidewall
Experience superior edge hold and stability with the XL Full Strength sidewall. This construction adds protective strips along the core, shielding the woodcore, edges, and topsheet from impact and damage. Enhanced durability and performance with every season, peak and itinerary.
Elliptical Sidecut
The Elliptical Sidecut features a longer radius underfoot for quicker, easier pivots, and shorter radius in the tip and tail for effortless turn initiation. This innovative sidecut supports a wide range of turn lengths, angles, and mounting positions, enhancing your skiing versatility and control.
Anti-Chip Micro-Cap
The Anti-chip Micro Cap protects the ski's tips and tails from wear and tear. Where the ski's topsheet wraps around and meets the sidewall, this delicate area is shielded by the Micro Cap. This protects from chipping and additional sidewall damage, each day you set out on the mountain.
Boat Flex
For high-speed stability and maximum pop in aerial maneuvers, the 'Boat Flex' ski pattern is unmatched. Featuring a stiffer tip and tail combined with a softer mid-ski section under the binding, it is perfect for those seeking a true freeride master.

Skis Size Guide
Find your size with our expert advice video:
As explained in our video guide above, choosing the right ski length depends on a mix of different factors. On a basic level, height, weight and ability should give you a good idea of what length of ski you should go for.
As a rule of thumb, start with a ski around nose to eyebrow level height.
If you are just starting out, or at an intermediate level, then we suggest that you take some length off. If you’re a more advanced/expert skier, then we suggest you should push your ski length towards your full height or even further. If you are heavier than the average weight for your size, feel free to add some ski length as well.

- You want to make even quicker, shorter turns more easily.
- You will spend most of your time on hard snow.
- You have a cool head and like to keep the revs down.
- You’re so tall, none of our skis are long enough for you.
Go towards the higher end of our suggested range if:
- You ski pedal to the metal
- You’re skiing fast and aggressively in off-piste conditions.
- You weigh more than average for your height
- You plan to do most of your skiing off-piste
- You want to look like a FWT athlete in the lift line
