New for 2015 the Scott Adventure is an evolution of the popular VENTURE ski, offering enhanced versatility & still featuring Venturi Tips & Tails. The Scott Adventure features ample float in the soft stuff thanks to the Venturi Tip & Tail that reduces surface pressure to encourage float & allow for smooth release when in the powder, & yet with the classic sandwich sidewall construction featuring a full wood core, the Adventure can still carve sweeping turns at all speeds on marked runs. The blend of technologies, & the dual radius sidecut with an all-mountain rocker tip, ensures great stability in all snow conditions too. As a freeride all mountain ski, there is the option with this ski to run it with a standard alpine binding, or to pair it up with a heel release alpine touring binding, if you want to explore to find the freshest runs on the mountain!

Back country skiing when fitted with an alpine touring binding such as the Scott Guardian. I was a huge fan of the Venture, & remember how much fun I had testing it at the prelaunch a few years ago, at one point far exceeding my abilities, & this ski saved me. So the Adventure has taken the Venture’s soul & tweaked the construction a little to make it even more versatile. It is not a ski for the lazy skier – it needs input – but when you do that its stunning! Is this for me? For the all-mountain skier who wants an all conditions ski for the whole mountain that can still put in sweeping carving turns when inbounds.
