Product Details
Rocker Type
Full Camber
Sidecut
WRC Sidecut Shape – Skis with long sidecuts need a shorter shovel radius to improve the beginning of the turn. The WRC shape is specifically designed for long turns.
Core
C-Spine Core – Two bi-directional carbon fiber layers positioned vertically into the woodcore laminents provide incredible rebound, improved energy transmission, and super fast edge to edge response.
Laminates
Double Titanal Layer
C-Armor Technology – A layer of bi-directional carbon fiber positioned from edge to edge under the binding are for stability, edge grip, stiffness under foot, and maximum precision at the beginning of the turn.
Sidewalls
Sandwich Compound Sidewall – Full sidewalls provide torsional rigidity and constant pressure along the full length of the ski. The result is better energy transmission, stability, control and ultimately greater performance.
Base
Sintered Graphite Race Base
Binding Plate
FDT Race Plate PRO – Adjustable binding platform that offers the same performance of the World Cup Piston Plate but 10% softer to satisfy the needs of daily users.
Included Bindings
Bindings Do Not Come Mounted to Skis – Always have a certified binding technician mount and adjust your bindings.

Terrain
Carving For those that like the classic feeling of laying a ski over on edge and arcing a perfect turn, carving skis are what you want. These skis have narrower waists and shorter turn radii for edge to edge quickness and responsive turn initiation and exit on groomed runs and hard pack. The beginner-intermediate skis in this category are designed to make learning how to turn as easy as going from pizza to French fries.

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:
Camber

Rocker Type
Camber Camber is the traditional profile for skis offering skiers lots of edge hold, especially on harder snow. A cambered ski has a smooth arch underfoot and contact points near the tip and tail when unweighted. Camber skis excel at carving on hard snow; you won’t ever see a ski racer on anything other than cambered skis.

Tail Type
Flat This is your traditional tail, designed to have edge contact all the way through the tail, and only designed for skiing forward. This is also preferred for alpine touring, as you can stick the tails of your skis in the snow.
