This is our carving ski. Inspired by the dynamic world of free skiing and made for groomed slopes and sporadic off-piste adventures. Featuring a 93mm waist and a 15m turning radius at 175cm.
He had been alpine skiing for a big part of his life. It went fast, and that equaled fun. But that fun part started to wither with all of the rules. “You have to optimize your stance. It’s too narrow, widen it.” The coach would say. He quit, but the carve never left. As he became a professional freeskier his Achilles heel in alpine skiing is now what makes a big part of his style. Short and snappy or smooth and long strokes down the mountain. Narrow or wide stance. He let nothing get between him and the groomer, and you shouldn't either.

Product Care
If you're keen on maximizing the lifespan of your skis and ensuring they stay in tip-top shape, here are a few easy-to-do things:
Dry is good: Always store your skis in a place where they can properly dry. Avoid the roof box overnight.
Wax on, Wax off: An unwaxed base dries out and becomes more prone to breaking.
Edge detune: If you’re a park skier, detune your edges underfoot and they will last longer.
Strap it up: Use ski straps – They minimize wear and tear while handling & transporting your skis.
Topsheet damage: Use epoxy and seal it asap. It prevents moisture from sneaking in.
Don’t discard: Scratched bases and dull edges are easily fixed with a base grind at your local shop.
