Ski Technology

Ski Technology

Our skis consistently outperform other skis in their class. One reason is our constant strive for meaningful, targeted innovation that makes a genuine difference:

Bases

We use 7000-Series sintered bases that are fast on any snow, can stand up to anything, and are easy to maintain.

EDGES

Our edges are made from steel five times more wear resistant than standard steel, for strength and perfect grip.

TOPSHEETS

Our topsheets are lightweight and highly resistant (made 50% from rapeseed oil).

CORES

At the core of every ski are the materials – and particularly the different types of wood – that determine how it behaves.

ULTRA POWER WOODCORE
Made from strong beech and lightweight poplar – for supreme running stability and agility in our racing skis.

POWER WOODCORE
A combination of hard ash and light poplar that’s stable and sporty for our high performance skis.

LIGHT WOODCORE
Made from poplar – ideal for our powder, all-mountain and freeride touring skis that need to be strong but really light.

ULTRA LIGHT WOODCORE
The poplar and caruba woodcore for skis that are all about low weight, like our touring skis.

DENSOLITE CORE
A foam core that’s agile and dampens vibrations – for effortless skiing.

Laminates

Around the main core are the materials that fine-tune the performance of a ski.

TITANIUM POWERED
A titanium layer above and below the core creates supreme shock absorption, strong running stability and a high torsional flex.

TITANIUM STABILIZER
One titanium layer under the core for great shock absorption and torsional flex.

TITANIUM BACKBONE
A titanium insert runs the length of the ski on top of the core like a stabilizing backbone – really dynamic and stable for all-mountain skis.

CARBON POWERED
A carbon layer above and below the core – for high strength at low weight in skis like the Ultimate.

CARBON TANK MESH
In Vantage and Vantage X – a layer of super rigid, woven mesh that adds strength across the ski without adding weight.

CARBON BACKBONE
A dynamic carbon insert for our lightweight backcountry skis: Backland FR and Backland.

FIBERGLASS LAMINATES
Fiberglass layers that are great for torsional stiffness across the length and width of the ski. Lightweight and very dynamic.

SIDEWALLS

Sidewalls affect how the ski dampens impacts and transmits power. We use five different types to suit different types of snow and skiing.

STEP DOWN SIDEWALL
Features a symmetrical step on each end that’s stable, light and durable.

FIREWALL
Extra full under the binding with flex grooves for awesome power transmission and edge grip on hard pack.

FULL SIDEWALL
Runs across the full length of the ski for precise steering, ideal for high-performing race and piste skis.

TAPERED SIDEWALL
Thicker towards the rear of the ski for extra acceleration and steering at high speed.

FULL CAP
A construction with no sidewall where the top sheet folds down over the edges, making it easy to handle.
