The reputation of this
ski almost negates the
need for a description!
The IKI paved the way for
the new generation of
free-touring skis with a
new weight:performance
ratio which is still
rarely matched. The IKI
is a sporty and energetic
ski which can be pushed
hard due to its mixed cap
tail and tip and straight
sidewall which allows it
to grip exceptionally
well on extreme terrain
as well as bite the snow
in bigger turns. Ski

2015 Offers a La Grave
Special Edition of this
ski that has been
redesigned to increase
ease, versatility and
edge hold on its
predecessor. We have
stocked K2 since we
started the business and
with the range and
quality of their skis it
is easy to see why.
Speak to any staff member
and they own or would
like to own at least one
pair from the K2 range.
This year K2 have added
RoX technology across a
number of the women’s
range to improve their
edge hold and torsional
stiffness in the tip as
well as help vibration
dampening. This was
utilized in the men’s
range last season with
great response and is now
spread out across more of
their range. This,
combined with their new
Baseline 2.0 technology
has changed the
performance of their
women specific range and
they have done this by
using a new comprehensive
build process where a
skis top shape is
redesigned to complement
the side profile along
the entire ski. They
have called this
‘Baseline 2.0’ and K2
has managed to engineer
skis for varied skier
types and even different
styles of skiing, while
also finely tuning them
for a specific snow
condition. The legacy of
Doug Coombs lives on in
this fully redesigned La
Gave edition Coomback.
At 104mm underfoot, the
new ski features tip and
tail taper, sidewalls
underfoot and increased
Rocker. Building on the
CoomBack legacy, the new
CoomBack 104 has
increased ease,
versatility and edge hold
than its predecessor.
These skis use the
Baseline2 Backside
construction. These are
built with a powder
influenced design with
progressively more taper
as the widths increase.,
making the ski steer
easier in soft and
unpredictable snow. The
profile of the tips is
long and low with
All-Terrain Rocker for
smooth planning through
softer snow and increased
versatility.. The waist
widths allow medium to
long radius sidecuts for
reduced weight and to
empower confidence during
medium to long turns,
while the camber on these
skis is medium to low for
a consistent feel in a
variety of snow
conditions. Finally
the tails offer greater
versatility by allowing
skier to adjust the arc
mid-turn and makes the
turn release easier.
The tail profiles are
flat and allow the skier
to plunge the tails into
the snow in order to
build anchors. Ski

Scott dates back to 1958,
when Ed Scott
revolutionized skiing by
inventing the first
aluminium ski pole. Since
then, it has brought a
series of innovative
products to market and
fundamentally positioned
Scott as a technical
product leader in the
skiing market. Although
they started relatively
late in manufacturing
actual skis (1998), due
to their industry
knowledge and sponsored
riders they have since
produced a number of
price winning skis and
set a number of
benchmarks for the ski
industry to follow. The
Xplor’Air couples a
wood core with
air-channel construction
to minimize weight and
improve performance
without compromising ride
quality. A carbon fibre
top sheet reduces overall
weight and offers the
performance and control
on decent. Ski

Ski Features SSCL
CARBON (Sandwich Sidewall
Construction Laminate
Carbon): Scott’s SSCL
Carbon is a result of a
carbon experience and
heritage. The combination
of a sandwich wood core
construction with carbon
laminates results in a
lightweight performance
construction ideally
suited for ski touring.
3D Carbon Frame:
This innovative carbon
laminate ski construction
creates an exceptionally
lightweight touring ski
while dramatically
increasing torsional
rigidity and dynamic
performance on steeps.
Dual Radius:
Traditional skis have a
fixed radius that
determines the length of
every turn. SCOTT skis
combine two radii (dual
radius) to create the
sidecut or “shape” of
the ski. By incorporating
the Dual Radius concept,
the ski can turn when you
want it to turn,
resulting in a more
versatile ski which is
not confined to one type
of skiing or terrain.
Factory Finish: SCOTT
skis come direct from the
factory ready to ski with
SCOTT factory finish.
Every factory finished
ski leaves the factory
with side edges ground at
89° and base edges
ground between 0.5° and
0.8° for exceptional
performance. The base is
finished with a micro
structured CNC stone
grind so you can mount
your skis and hit the
hill, no tuning
required. Pro-Tip
Rocker 350: By
incorporating a
progressive tip height
radius, SCOTT skis
simply track better than

There is no damage to
skis, but there may be
small cosmetic marks due
to use. A highly
maneuverable big mountain
ski design to take on
ultra-steep spines, with
the ability to dump speed
on demand, and unmatched
stability in the tail for
run outs. The Powder
Rocker on the
DarkSide is drawn almost
all the way back to the
toe piece, creating a
massive sweet spot which
enables you to weight the
shovel to pivot and scrub
speed, or pressure the
cambered tail for
powerful acceleration and
accuracy.
The Adventure-Backside
Series are for those who
are looking for a more
powder orientated ski,
whether that be just off
the side of the trail, a
secret stash in bounds,
a short hike to get above
the lifts, a tour into
the backcountry, or if
you are lucky enough a
sled, cat or helidrop to
the most remote spots
then this range is for
you. With the ability
to mount, touring,
fixed or telemark
bindings on them and
their Baseline
technology, Tip and Tail
skin attachments and
snowphopic top sheets
this range are a truly
versatile backcountry
genre. Features: Bio Core
Tech: These are
lighter-weight renewable
cores. Using blended
cores of Aspen/bamboo and
Paulownia these cores
have a consistent
density, great
strength-to-weight ratio
and fast growth
carbon-sequestration.
These cores result in 15%
weight savings over
traditional cores and are
decreasing the carbon
footprint. These skis
have Aspen as a solid and
dense wood that is known
for its inherent strength
and durability.
Paulownia is an
eco-friendly, fast
growing renewable wood
that is incredibly strong
and lightweight. This
creates a dynamic,
aggressive ski that is
light and flexible.
Hybritech Sidewalls:
Hybritech is a unique
blend of sidewall and cap
contractions. The
construction combines the
accuracy, power and
performance of sidewall
underfoot with the
lightweight
characteristics and
smooth turn initiation of
cap construction.
Progressive Sidecut:
Progressive sidecut is a
combination of two
different radii, or
sidecuts, that enhance
the versatility of
wider-waist skis.
Standard sidecut theory
is based on using a
single radius. This
works well on narrower
skis, but becomes
overpowering on wider
skis, especially in
variable conditions, The
use of progressive
sidecut on wider-waist
skis guarantees improved
turn initiation and
hard-snow performance.
Powder Rocker: Designed
for deep snow with the
most elevated tip and
longest measurement of
rocker. Offers a surfy
feel with enhanced
soft-snow performance.
The camber region still
exists to ensure edge
hold in firmer
conditions. Powder Tip:
The widest point of this
tip is the forward
contact point as opposed
to 7cm in front of it
like most shaped skis.
This design makes the ski
more stable and
predictable because it
won’t hook or grab
erratically in windblown
snow and other variable
conditions that you’re
likely to encounter in
the backcountry. Tip/Tail
hardware: K2 Tip and
Tail rivet plates were
developed for durability,
but have now been
modified to allow the
additional option of a
pre-cut climbing skin
onto the ski. Simply
screw out the centre
rivet, attach K2 skins
and you are ready for
your backcountry needs.

There is nearly no ski
that is lighter and more
stress free. Yet the BMT
94 is very light which
allows a comfortable hike
and insures a
high-performance through
the V-Werks construction.
Furthermore it is
extremely friendly to
kick turns, excellent in
traverse and thanks to
its reduced width, fits
into existing climbing
tracks. Its unique
technology really shines
on the descent, where
its very good power
transfer and top control
handle all snow
conditions with grace and
style. The BMT 94 is has
a full carbon jacket
construction and 3D shape
which together create an
exceptionally light,
stiff and stable ski that
offers a fantastic level
of all-round performance
and durability. This ski
is constructed using a
full-rocker profile, the
benefit of this is that
the short edge length
under the binding
counteracts the natural
inertia had heaviness of
a wider ski so that the
ski is easier to turn on
hardpack and gives more
floatation and forginess
in deeper snow. The thin
profile that the carbon
fibre allows them to use
means that in deeper snow
the ski can slice through
the snow without getting
hooked up. Ski

A combination of 89mm
underfoot, Light Rocker
10 tip and 1160grams in
177cm make the RESPONSE X
a breath of fresh air in
the Free-tour category.
The RESPONSE X has
received numerous
accolades in the skiing
press, thanks in part to
its NORTH TPT technology
construction. This
ski’s width make it a
favourite with
free-tourers who are as
motivated by the descent
as the ascent. It grips
superbly in hard
conditions, floats
through powder and loves
spring snow conditions.
The RESPONSE X is the
ideal ski for long trips
and multi-day tours,
where the descent is as
much the goal as the
ascent Ski Technologies
This ski features PSA
technology, a strip of
wood placed horizontally
in under-foot area. This
year we have integrated
new types of core in the
X-series skis which are
designed to maximise the
durability of the skis
and increase their
resistance to impacts.
All the X-series have a
PSA positioned
horizontally in the
central area of the ski
with a few centimetres
overlap to the front and
back of the binding
position. This method is
used for these models we
want keep weight to a
minimum North TPT:
This unique process of
fibre layering is now
used in a number of
different industries
(aviation, automobile,
nautical etc.) where
saving weight whilst
maximising performance
are a top priority. Every
year we evolve our skis
incorporating new
developments from our
non-stop R&D processes.
After a number of
successful seasons
working with this
revolutionary technology
in the X-SERIES, we have
now integrated the same
technology in the new
alpine Z-LINE range. Our
research over the last
few winters has shown
that this type of
construction provides
incredible stability and
resistance to deformation
and ageing of the skis.
Particular attention is
paid to the binding area
of the ski where fibres
are strategically layered
to guarantee high
resistance to impacts.
MOVEMENT owns the rights
to the use of this
technology in the ski
industry. Ski

This ski has been
redesigned, lightened
and modernized to appeal
to the ski mountaineer or
spring ski tourer who
places a premium on
efficiency. We have
stocked K2 since we
started the business and
with the range and
quality of their skis it
is easy to see why.
Speak to any staff member
and they own or would
like to own at least one
pair from the K2 range.
This year K2 have added
RoX technology across a
number of the women’s
range to improve their
edge hold and torsional
stiffness in the tip as
well as help vibration
dampening. This was
utilized in the men’s
range last season with
great response and is now
spread out across more of
their range. This,
combined with their new
Baseline 2.0 technology
has changed the
performance of their
women specific range and
they have done this by
using a new comprehensive
build process where a
skis top shape is
redesigned to complement
the side profile along
the entire ski. They
have called this
‘Baseline 2.0’ and K2
has managed to engineer
skis for varied skier
types and even different
styles of skiing, while
also finely tuning them
for a specific snow
condition. The Wayback 88
has been redesigned,
lightened and modernized
to appeal to the ski
mountaineer or spring ski
tourer who places a
premium on efficiency.
Slight tip and tail taper
provide greater ease and
versatility than its
predecessor and sidewalls
underfoot also improve
the edge hold. These skis
use the Baseline2
Backside construction.
These are built with a
powder influenced design
with progressively more
taper as the widths
increase., making the
ski steer easier in soft
and unpredictable snow.
The profile of the tips
is long and low with
All-Terrain Rocker for
smooth planning through
softer snow and increased
versatility.. The waist
widths allow medium to
long radius sidecuts for
reduced weight and to
empower confidence during
medium to long turns,
while the camber on these
skis is medium to low for
a consistent feel in a
variety of snow
conditions. Finally
the tails offer greater
versatility by allowing
skier to adjust the arc
mid-turn and makes the
turn release easier.
The tail profiles are
flat and allow the skier
to plunge the tails into
the snow in order to
build anchors. Ski

Dual Radius Traditional
skis have a fixed radius
that determines the
length of every turn.
SCOTT skis combine two
radii (dual radius) to
create the sidecut or
“shape” of the ski.
By incorporating the Dual

The BackLite is designed
for the ski tourer
focused on efficiency.
Our lightweight wood core
has clear weight
advantages when climbing,
but unlike featherweight
rando race skis, it
provides more power and
precision when skiing
frozen corn or difficult
windblown. Last, the
narrow 74mm waist
provides exceptional skin
purchase when touring on
firm snow. Technology
Torsion Box Torsion Box
construction is the
foundation for the widest
range of skis designed by
K2. Depending on the
dimensions of a ski, and
the amount of flex and
torsion designed into it,
one model of a Torsion
Box ski can differ
greatly from another. The
versatility in the
construction enables us
to build everything from
entry-level through
expert skis. While there
will be significant
differences between skis,
they do share the common
traits of ease,
forgiveness,
responsiveness, and
energy that can be found
in all Torsion Box skis.
Carbon Web Enveloping the
Mod structure with a
carbon weave where the
strands of carbon are
laid at precise angles
for an additional level
of torsional rigidity on
the secondary core. This
keeps the ski light but
gives you the additional
torsional strength where
you need it most. Skin
Grommets The new freeride
tip and tail grommets are
a clean, simple design
that no longer requires a
plug. The durable rubber
coating disguises a slit
designed to accommodate
both the Z clip for our
skin attachments, and
the components to build a
rescue sled. Cap
Construction Durable and
lightweight “cap”
skis are built by a
sophisticated molding
process that envelopes
the core and internal
materials with the top
layer of the ski. Used
throughout our ski line,
cap constructions can be
assembled with a variety
of different cores. These
variations, such as
glass and/or metal
materials, are the
determining factors of
the skis’ performance.
Snophobic Topsheet Since
snow collecting on the
ski can add pounds to a
climb, our SnoPhobic
tops keep you light with
a new snow-repellent
topsheet. The running
surface along the bottom
of a ski is hydrophobic
by design, so we’ve
developed a thinner
version of the same
material to use on the

SKI BINDING ADVICE:
You will need a
minimum 90mm brake width
for this ski. For a very
light weight set up then
if you have Dynafit
compatible boots the
Fritschi Vipec or a
Dynafit binding would be
a great set-up,
otherwise you could look
at the Marker F10 or F12

The WayBack prefers an
adventure to a rustic hut
over the crowds of busy
resorts. A superlight
wood core with a Carbon
Web makes this adventure
ski one of the lightest
mid-fat skis on the
market. It excels at
long approaches and pays
increasingly great
dividends the farther one
ventures into the
mountains. The
All-Terrain Shovel rocker
combined with the
shallow, progressive
sidecut makes it
ultra-predicable in
high-alpine conditions,
with the added benefit of
rocker that also makes
trail-breaking
easier.With the ability
to mount, touring,
fixed or telemark
bindings on them and
their Baseline
technology, Tip and Tail
skin attachments and
snowphopic top sheets
these skis are a truly
versatile backcountry
tool. Features:Core:
Aspen is a solid and
dense wood that is known
for its inherent strength
and durability.
Paulownia is an
eco-friendly, fast
growing renewable wood
that is incredibly strong
and lightweight. Bamboo
is a softer wood and is
recognised for being
forgiving and
lightweight.Carbon
Torsion Box: This is
one of K2’s most
popular methods of
structuring a ski and
involves encasing the
wood core with, in this
case, Carbon strands.
This means that you get
all the benefits of the
wood core, whilst also
sharing the common traits
of ease, forgiveness,
responsiveness, and
energy that can be found
in all Torsion Box
skis.Cap Construction:
Durable and lightweight
‘cap’ skis are built
by a sophisticated
moulding process that
envelopes the core and
internal materials with
the top layer of the
ski. Used throughout
the K2 ski line, cap
constructions can be
assembled with a variety
of different cores.
These variations, such
as glass and/or metal
material are the
determining factors of
the skis
performance.Powder Tip:
The widest point of this
tip is the forward
contact point as opposed
to 7cm in front of it
like most shaped skis.
This design makes the ski
more stable and
predictable because it
won’t hook or grab
erratically in windblown
snow and other variable
conditions that you’re
likely to encounter in
the
backcountry.Snowphobic
topsheet: These
topsheets have a snow
repellent surface. If
snow builds up on the ski
it can really add to the
weight when touring, and
so, this hydrophobic
design will reduce this
from happening.
Applying wax to the
topsheet will help
increases its
snow-shedding
performance.Progressive
Sidecut: Progressive
sidecut is a combination
of two different radii,
or sidecuts, that
enhance the versatility
of wider-waist skis.
Standard sidecut theory
is based on using a
single radius. This
works well on narrower
skis, but becomes
overpowering on wider
skis, especially in
variable conditions, The
use of progressive
sidecut on wider-waist
skis guarantees improved
turn initiation and
hard-snow
performance.Carbon web:
Enveloping the Mod
structure with a carbon
weave where the strands
of carbon are laid at
precise angles for an
additional level of
torsional rigidity on the
secondary core. This
keeps the ski light but
gives you the additional
torsional strength where
you need it most.Tip/Tail
hardware: K2 Tip and Tail
rivet plates were
developed for durability,
but have now been
modified to allow the
additional option of a
pre-cut climbing skin
onto the ski. Simply
screw out the centre
rivet, attach K2 skins
and you are ready for
your backcountry
needs.All-terrain
Rocker: Designed for
all snow conditions,

around. The skis come
complete with pre-cut

AT-TACK glueless skins
for outstanding
performance. Simply add
your ski touring binding
and go explore! FEATURES
AND BENEFITS 87MM WAIST:
Makes effortless driving
characteristics in the
backcountry terrain
possible. But also
frontside, this waist
gives a dynamic
performance. In
comparison to a classic
terrain ski of equivalent
length, the running
surface gains
approximately 31 %. SKI
GEOMETRY: The SINGLE
RADIUS masters changing
conditions and difficult
circumstances. The
harmonious sidecut
enables a smooth and
exceptional ride. WOOD
CORE: karuba is used for
the wood core, providing
this ski with a very low
weight. In order to
combine a comfortable
longitudinal flex design
with high torsional
rigidity, the
traditional sandwich core
concept has been
reinforced with a
structural element (CAP).
This wood core, in
combination with
fibreglass, allows for
perfect harmonization of
vibrations and flexing
characteristics. The
reinforced housing from
various fiberglass sheets
acts like a torsional
box, equipping the ski
with high torsional
rigidity. In this context
it is essential that the
internal quality and
structure be built in
high-quality sandwich
construction. HOLLOWTECH:
With the help of the
HOLLOWTECH technology the
ski‘s running
characteristics is
improved. The cutout
section in the shovel
leads to a reduced weight
of the freely vibrating
zone by almost 15 %. The
resulting lower inertia
moments optimize the
retraction behavior of
the ski. This means that
after an impact the
shovel returns much
faster to the stable
condition, enabling the
ski to keep its track
much more precisely.
Hollowtech creates even
greater weight savings on
the TX touring skis. And
the Dual Hollowtech on
the XX Twintip skis,
allows for the fastest
rotation and most
controllable spin. WEAR
PROTECTION: The upper
edge radius in
combination with the
sandwich cap construction
offers optimal protection
against wear and tear.
SKINS -Glueless AT-TACK
TECHNOLOGY: A mohair mix
skin (65%/35%) for a
perfect blend of glide
performance and
durability. Comes
complete with a storage
bag, and backing sheets
for storage. The skins
are pre-cut to the ski
length and have all the
fittings ready to go. The
skins are manufactured by
renowned skin
manufacturer Kohla. The
key feature is the
lighter weight acheived
by a GLUELESS skin base.

The radical freerider for
the most demanding
skiers, produced using
exquisite V-Werks
technology. The
ultra-thin yet extremely
functional and stable 3D
construction with full
carbon wrapper enables
an enormously light full
rocker construction with
an impressively dynamic
skiing performance. There
is no lighter and trusted
way to test the limits of
freeride skiing. The
V-Werks technology gives
the ski a 3D shape using
a full multi layer wood
core centre structure and
a full wrap around of
carbon. Not only does
this look amazing but it
adds stiffness,
stability and reduces the
weight dramatically. The
super thin edges of the
ski mean that in the deep
stuff the ski can slice
through the snow without
getting hooked up or
creating too much drag.
This ski is built using a
full rocker profile which
is what you would expect
of a big mountain ski
these days. The benefit
of this is that it offers
superior float and more
forgiveness in softer,
deeper snow. The variable
edge length that a rocker
ski gives allows for
precise dosages of edge
pressure and very easy
turn initiation in all
conditions and on all
terrains. Ski

Big mountain, back
country touring As a
person formerly involved
in carbon fibre
production, I am always
sceptical when I see
materials being applied
to products, in case it
is just for looks. I am
happy to say this is an
AMAZING feat of
engineering. I don’t
know how they have
managed such perfect
fusion between the
aramid, carbon and
Titanal (The waterjet
cutting is key, its so
precise, and SO
expensive and time
consuming) but the result
is a technically flawless
high performance, high
power all mountain ski
that is so light weight
considering the
performance from
underfoot, which never
leaves you feel wanting!
It is so thin that you
expect it to be flapping
around, but honestly,
it is just so planted. I
wouldn’t leave these
outside the restaurant at
lunchtime, they will
attract a LOT of
attention – most of it
good! Expensive, but if
you can afford them they
are worth every penny. Is
this for me? If you are
an experienced
big-mountain skier
looking for the ultimate
ski with cutting edge
technology then look no
further. The binding
options are pretty open
with this ski, I paired
some up with a Dynafit
Beast this year which was
an amazing setup. Any TLT

go on here very nicely

Construction with Aspen /

Bindings: Ski Only
Features & Benefits
All-Terrain Rocker
All-Terrain Rocker
features an elevated tip
for variable and soft
snow performance, as
well as camber underfoot
for power, energy, and
edge-hold in firmer
conditions. Simply put,
All-Terrain Rocker offers
versatility and ease in
all snow conditions. Cap
Construction Durable and
lightweight “cap”
skis are built by a
sophisticated molding
process that envelopes
the core and internal
materials with the top
layer of the ski. Used
throughout our ski line,
cap constructions can be
assembled with a variety
of different cores. These
variations, such as
glass and/or metal
materials, are the
determining factors of
the skis’ performance.
Wood Core K2 uses a
variety of wood cores for
energy, rebound, and a
liveliness only found in
wood core skis. Our wood
cores consist of a blend
of different species of
wood based on the desired
flex and target
performance of the ski.
Powder Tip Designed to be
more predictable in soft
snow conditions, these
tips are designed to
strike the perfect
balance of maximizing
float while reducing tip
deflection. These tips
are designed with a
gentle arc and transition
into the sidecut of the
ski. Progressive Sidecut
Progressive sidecut is a
combination of two
different radii, or
sidecuts, that enhance
the versatility of
wider-waist skis.
Standard sidecut theory
is based on using a
single radius. This works
well on narrower skis,
but becomes overpowering
on wider skis,
especially in variable
conditions. The use of
progressive sidecut on
wider-waist skis
guarantees improved turn
initiation and hard-snow
performance. Carbon Web
Enveloping the Mod
structure with a carbon
weave where the strands
of carbon are laid at
precise angles for an
additional level of
torsional rigidity on the
secondary core. This
keeps the ski light but
gives you the additional
torsional strength where
you need it most.
Snophobic Topsheet Since
snow collecting on the
ski can add pounds to a
climb, our SnoPhobic
tops keep you light with
a new snow-repellent
topsheet. The running
surface along the bottom
of a ski is hydrophobic
by design, so we’ve
developed a thinner
version of the same
material to use on the
BackSide model-specific
topsheets. Skin Grommets
The new freeride tip and
tail grommets are a
clean, simple design
that no longer requires a
plug. The durable rubber
coating disguises a slit
designed to accommodate
both the Z clip for our
skin attachments, and
the components to build a
rescue sled. Torsion Box
Torsion Box construction
is the foundation for the
widest range of skis
designed by K2. Depending
on the dimensions of a
ski, and the amount of
flex and torsion designed
into it, one model of a
Torsion Box ski can
differ greatly from
another. The versatility
in the construction
enables us to build
everything from
entry-level through
expert skis. While there
will be significant
differences between skis,
they do share the common
traits of ease,
forgiveness,
responsiveness, and
energy that can be found
in all Torsion Box skis.

The RESPONSE is part of
the new generation of
free-touring skis with a
new-school shape. The
sidecut and the long
Light Rocker 10 tip make
this ski float
effortlessly in the deep
stuff and make it
super-smooth in varied
terrain. This mid-fat ski
is made with a
lightweight Karuba wood
core and strong
construction to keep it
very stiff torsionally
and keep the performance
levels high. Despite its
high-performance
abilities, the RESPONSE
remains an easy ski to
handle, so it suits all
levels of freeride
touring skiers, but
particularly those who
are sporty and looking
for the next challenge.

Expert What we say
This is a narrower
version of the shift,
bringing it out of the
freeride area and more
into all mountain use.
This makes it a little
more responsive when
flicking from edge to
edge and offers better
edge grip. Is this for
me? If you are between
freeride and classic
touring this ski has the
ideal blend of the two.
This is great all round
tourer. SKI BINDING
ADVICE: You will need a
minimum 95mm brake width
for this ski. For a
durable setup you could
pair this up with an
alpine touring binding
such as the Marker Baron
or Duke. If you want to
go downhill only though a
Marker Griffon would be
ideal - with a
110mm wide brake. You
can always go wider for
your brakes but dont be
tempted to go narrower.

bindings offer fantastic
all mountain performance
in a lightweight ski
touring package. The skis

for outstanding

your ski touring binding
and go explore! FEATURES
AND BENEFITS 87MM WAIST:
Makes effortless driving
characteristics in the
backcountry terrain
possible. But also
frontside, this waist
gives a dynamic
performance. In
comparison to a classic
terrain ski of equivalent
length, the running
surface gains
approximately 31 %. SKI
GEOMETRY: The SINGLE
RADIUS masters changing
conditions and difficult
circumstances. The
harmonious sidecut
enables a smooth and
exceptional ride. WOOD
CORE: karuba is used for
the wood core, providing
this ski with a very low
weight. In order to
combine a comfortable
longitudinal flex design
with high torsional
rigidity, the
traditional sandwich core
concept has been
reinforced with a
structural element (CAP).
This wood core, in
combination with
fibreglass, allows for
perfect harmonization of
vibrations and flexing
characteristics. The
reinforced housing from
various fiberglass sheets
acts like a torsional
box, equipping the ski
with high torsional
rigidity. In this context
it is essential that the
internal quality and
structure be built in
high-quality sandwich
construction. HOLLOWTECH:
With the help of the
HOLLOWTECH technology the
ski‘s running
characteristics is
improved. The cutout
section in the shovel
leads to a reduced weight
of the freely vibrating
zone by almost 15 %. The
resulting lower inertia
moments optimize the
retraction behavior of
the ski. This means that
after an impact the
shovel returns much
faster to the stable
condition, enabling the
ski to keep its track
much more precisely.
Hollowtech creates even
greater weight savings on
the TX touring skis. And
the Dual Hollowtech on
the XX Twintip skis,
allows for the fastest
rotation and most
controllable spin. WEAR
PROTECTION: The upper
edge radius in
combination with the
sandwich cap construction
offers optimal protection
against wear and tear.
SKINS: A mohair mix skin
(65%/35%) for a perfect
blend of glide
performance and
durability. Comes
complete with a storage
bag, and backing sheets
for storage. The skins
are pre-cut to the ski
length and have all the
fittings ready to go. The
skins are manufactured by
renowned skin
manufacturer Kohla.
BINDINGS:
Tyrolia Ambition
bindings with a DIN of up
to 12, offer a fantastic
blend of light weight and
all mountain performance.
The walk mode can be
easily activated with a
click of the rear button,
and the binding features
an extendable main
lightweight frame, to
allow the binding to be
set to a wide range of
ski boot lengths.
