Product Info
Vermont's 802 area code is a long, long way from the Rockies, but Vermont is a legend and old soul in the world of North American skiing. Built with a shape that can rip ice clear enough to see frozen squirrels, the p802 remains insanely versatile and holds it own out west as a 95mm one-ski-quiver. Progressive sidecut and a maple core lock the edges in on hard snow while early rise in the tip and a twinned tail give the p802 the chops it needs to handle heavy and deeper snow. This ski can handle the hard-core-maple-syrup-swilling-tree-chopping conditions of Vermont, and now you can too! For the skier who wants no compromise on their one-quiver ski, look no further.

Rocker Type
Early Rise Tip
Camber Underfoot
Shape
Tapered Tip and Tail – Progressive shape keeps ski nimble in deeper and heavy snow
Core
Solid Maple Core – Stout, damp, stable, with snappy flex
Sidewalls
Military Grade UHMW – 2.5x Thicker than standard, making skis much more resistant to impact and blown edges
Base
World Cup Sintered Bases – Double the thickness of standard bases at 2.2mm, making skis fast and less prone to base damage and core shots
Edges
Double Thick 2.2mm Edges – Less traditional steel with 2x thicker edges and teeth reduce likelihood of a blown or cracked edge
Binding Compatibility
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

Terrain
All-Mountain All-mountain skis are designed to handle anything you throw at them including powder, ice, groomers, steeps, heavy snow, and everything in between, but they aren’t necessarily a master of any one terrain. If you’re only going to own one ski to do it all, this is what you want. All-mountain skis generally have what we call mid-fat waists that range from 80-110 mm. 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. Alpine Touring Also known as backcountry skis, alpine touring (AT) skis are designed for going uphill as well as downhill. These skis are typically light for their width and many feature fittings that accept climbing skins. AT skis vary in width and weight, with the wider heavier versions usually used for winter/deep snow touring and the skinnier, lighter skis usually used for spring/summer/long distance touring.

Ability Level:
Intermediate-Advanced

Ability Level
Intermediate-Advanced Whether you’re a progressing intermediate exploring new runs and terrain, or an accomplished rider seeking new thrills, the majority of skiers and snowboarders fall into this level. Intermediate to advanced skis and snowboards may be somewhat wider or stiffer than beginner-intermediate skis and snowboards, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Intermediate to advanced boots and bindings range from softer flexing freestyle options to stiffer choices built for stability at speed.

Rocker Type:
Rocker/Camber
More
Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber Rocker/Camber skis pair a traditional cambered profile underfoot with an elongated, early rise tip borrowed from fully rockered skis. This profile places the front contact point further back from the tip, while the rear contact point remains close to the tail. The rockered tip allows for better flotation and less edge catch for increased float in deep snow, while the cambered rear stores and transmits energy similarly to a fully cambered ski.

Turning Radius
Medium 17-22 m radius is best for all-mountain and park & pipe.

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.
