What are the Line Skis Vision 104 Skis, touring skis that go downhill really well, or lift-served skis that are extraordinarily light and easy to maneuver? It really depends on where you point them, because they're equally adept in both scenarios. Line has shifted the focus from simply light weight to a more rounded performance hybrid concept with the Vision skis, and unless you're peak bagging or doing week-long hut trips we think the new direction is a welcome one. As with the other Visions, the 104 now features an Aspen and Paulownia wood core with "THC" layup - a hybrid layup using Aramid, Carbon Fiber, and Fiberglass that cancels out unwanted vibrations and adds strength without excess weight. The result, as they say, is visionary.
