Product Info
evo Collective member Wiley Miller doesn't mess around in the backcountry, and neither should you. The 4FRNT YLE Skis were designed for pow and backcountry booter domination. The symmetrical, rockered tip and tail shape is the perfect balance of freestyle geometry for switch riding, along with float in powder and edgehold when the conditions don't cooperate. At 119 underfoot, the YLE is a powder munching champ, but don't be scared to take it through variable or hard snow either. The 4FRNT YLE Skis eat everything up.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Rocker – An upturned radius in the tips and tails lets the ski float through powder and off-trail conditions.
Shape
Traditional Contact – The two contact points of the ski are at the tips and tails.
Twin Tip – The tail of the ski is also upturned to allow for switch skiing and landings.
Symmetrical – The same dimensions in the tip and the tail, along with a near centered mounting point.
Backcountry Freestyle – Take the park into the backcountry with these skis designed for maximum stompage.
Core
Hi-Lite Core – A blend of poplar and beech makes Hi-Lite Cores snappy and lightweight with enough substance to drive wider skis in soft snow.
Sidewalls
Semi-Cap Construction – Semi-cap partially wraps the topsheet around the sidewall for additional durability.

Terrain
Big Mountain Big mountain skis are designed for charging big lines with high speeds and big airs. These skis varry in width from wide, powder-oriented skis for skiing Alaska spines to narrower, mixed condition skis for ripping the beat up headwall at your local mountain. Skis in this category tend to be on the stiffer side, often with more rocker in the tip and less in the tail. Powder These skis are for the deep days. If you like to find powder stashes at your local resort, go on backcountry missions for the freshest of fresh or heli ski trips to BC, powder skis are what you need to stay afloat. Skis in the powder category are wide and most often have some form of rocker or early rise plus a relatively soft flex. Many powder skis today are versatile enough to handle mixed conditions and harder snow.

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.

Rocker Type:
Rocker/Camber/Rocker
More
Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber/Rocker Rocker/Camber/Rocker skis have the playfulness and float of a rockered ski as well as the added edge hold of a cambered ski. The contact points on skis with this profile are closer towards the middle of the ski than a fully cambered ski, but still not underfoot. The cambered midsection provides a longer effective edge on hardpack, increasing edge hold and stability, while the rockered tip and tail provide floatation in deeper snow and allow the ski to initiate and release from turns easier.

Turning Radius
Long > 22 m radius is best for powder and big-mountain.

Tail Type:
Full Twin Tip
More
Tail Type
Full Twin Tip Desinged to allow you to ski backwards, full twin tips are found primarily on park & pipe skis and freestyle powder skis. More and more, we are seeing twin tips on all-mountain skis of all abilities, as it makes it a little easier to get around, and for the most part does not inhibit forward skiing.
