So you want one ski to hold it down on everything from hardpack groomers to mid-week pow days, and even slushy park laps, huh? Then the ON3P Kartel 108 Skis are right up your alley. Combining a moderately stiff flex profile with ON3P's most effortless and versatile Freestyle rocker, the Kartel 108s are wide enough to keep you on top, yet still narrow enough to throw down a solid edge when you need to. To up the ante, a new Hybrid sidecut improves the skis' hardpack ability while still remaining balanced and playful through variable conditions. Be it park, powder, crud, or hardpack, the refreshed ON3P Kartel 108 Skis handle it all with poise.
Freestyle Rocker – Larger tip rocker and tail rocker combined with camber underfoot. More playful, more fun, with enough camber underfoot to maintain a solid edge contact on hard snow.
Freestyle Flex | 7-8-7 – Solid underfoot platform with a round, progressive flex into the tip and tail. A close-to-symmetrical flex for performance going forward and backwards.
Hybrid Sidecut – The sidecut consists of an elliptical arc that begins at boot center and gets progressively smaller as it extends toward the tip of the ski, combined with a traditional radius in the tail. The elliptical tip radius carves the more you drive it, while the traditional tail radius remains even and catch free in variable snow.
Bamboo Core – The heart of every pair of ON3P ski is a FSC-certified, vertically laminated, 100% bamboo core. Bamboo provides a responsive, yet damp characteristic to their skis that everyone has grown to love.
Carbon Fiber – Provides strength, rebound, responsiveness, and stiffens torsionally and longitudinally.
Tri-Axial Fiberglass – 19 oz or 22 oz tri-axial fiberglass provides torsional and longitudinal stiffness, ensuring proper edge hold and power transfer.
Extra Wide Binding Mat – An additional layer of fiberglass mat prevents pullouts. To ensure proper coverage for all types of hole patterns, ON3P runs their mat full width on every ski they make. Their binding mat is double-biax fiberglass, increasing torsional stiffness.
Vibration Dampening Strips (VDS) – VDS rubber is applied to the edges and sidewalls, acting as a shear layer that provides improved bonding strength and vibration dampening.
UHMW Sidewalls – UHMW (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) is an incredibly strong material, has a higher abrasion resistance than steel, and resists cracking.
1.8mm 4001 Durasurf Sintered Base – ON3P's Durasurf 4001 base material provides their skis with better glide and protection from damage compared to any other sintered and extruded base material, and is 50% thicker than the industry standard.
2.5mm x 2.5mm Extra Thick Edges – ON3P uses a 3/4 wrap for their 2.5mm x 2.5mm Rockwell 48 steel edges. The 3/4 wrap allows the tips and tails of the skis to flex, decreasing the risk of delamination.
Nylon Topsheet – Sublimated nylon topsheet is chip-resistant to ensure you always look your best.
Made in Oregon – Every single pair of ON3P skis is built by an ON3P employee in their Portland, Oregon factory. No shortcuts of OEM here -- they do it themselves. Design, build, sell.
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.
