Product Info
The iconic DPS Wailer A112 RP Skis take the same ground breaking shape that shook up the skiing industry years ago and add in space age Alchemist Pure Carbon construction, making the ski more damp and smooth. Light, nimble, and quick turning, these versatile fan favorites tear it up on hardpack, slice up crud like a hot knife through butter and have unparalleled float in deep snow. 'RP' stands for 'Resort-Pow', and the moniker could not be more apt; the Wailer A112 RP is the ski you want under your feet when the conditions are prime.

Sidecut
RP Chassis – When DPS' best-selling Wailer 112 originally debuted, it carried the 'RP' moniker as a suffix. 'RP' is back in the name to highlight the legendary shaping style that is characterized by a 15m sidecut, deep rockers and a tapered, flatter sidecut that blends at the contact points. It's the special ingredient that drives a uniquely smooth and intuitive sense of turn shape. Resort Pow!
Core
Aspen Wood Core – Lightweight and resilient. Great all-around core material.
Alchemist Pure Carbon – The world's most advanced ski construction takes a significant evolutionary step forward. Alchemist pure carbon skis are the ultimate expression of the craft. Next-level, vibration-tuned aerospace grade carbon ski construction melded with absolutely the finest in supporting materials. Alchemist skis retain the same historical shapes as their Pure3 predecessors, but due to the construction upgrades are notably damper and smoother in mixed and firmer conditions.

Terrain:
Powder

Terrain
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.
- Skis: No Bindings

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/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.

Tail Type:
Partial Twin Tip
More
Tail Type
Partial Twin Tip Partial twin tip skis have a tail that is turned up, but not as much as the tip. This gives you the ability to ski backwards and back out of tight spaces, but these skis are mainly designed to ski forward.
