Line Honey Badger Skis 2022
The Honey Badger is the go-to ski for park, freestyle and jibbing all over the mountain. Handrails, bonks, hard landings, it doesn't care. It can take it all and it won't break your bank in the process. If you're after a super-playful, jibby ski that is lightweight for quick movements and style in your tricks, then Honey Badger is going to be the one.Terrain Type & Ability LevelTerrain Type It's dialled-in for freestyle, whether in the park, natural features or urban locations. The flex is soft, making it ideal for butters and presses, but thanks to the quality build and decent camber underfoot it still feels good on jumps.Skier TypeThis is a ski that will perfectly suit park or urban skiers, meaning it is ideal for dome and dryslope regulars wanting a light, tough and fun ski,
for jibs, jumps and rails, more so than many freestyle skis that are bigger and heavier. It won't suit an all mountain skier as it doesn't have the grip on hard snow or the width for powder seekers, but it will make the right choice for skiers looking for something park specific with light handling and a poppy feel.OverviewShape92mm underfoot keeps it nimble and quick, the 19.5m (177cm) radius ensures stability on landings and rough snow. A 5Cut Multi Radius Sidecut blends 5 different radii so that the ski is comfortable in a variety of turns and keeps an intuitive feel. early Taper moves the widest point of the sidecut so it begins tapering earlier in the tip and tail to reduce hook ups in soft snow.Rockerearly Rise at the tip and tail lift them away from the snow to bring the
contact points closer to the centre of the ski. This increases the ski's lift in deep snow and allows it to engage more quickly on hardpack when rolled over on edge.CoreAn Aspen Veneer Core uses aspen stringers to create a lightweight, snappy and engaged feel. This works perfectly with the Carbon Ollieband, pre-stretched carbon stringers running down the ski centre for added pop and play.ConstructionAny ski that is aimed at jibbing and playing-about needs to be tough, and just because the Honey Badger is light doesn't mean that Line have skimped on the durability. In fact, the opposite is true. 4D Fibrecap construction uses 4 directions of fibreglass, woven across the top of the core for added durability, and a cap construction for toughness. Thin Tips help keep the weight down by
using a thin core and sidewall in the tip and tail, saving 100grams a pair for reduced swing weight. The textured tougher top sheet materials resist scratches and abuse for longer, protecting the look and life of the ski.Key FeaturesFatty Base and edge30% thicker base and edge, 2.2mm wide x 2.5mm high steel edges and 1.7mm thick base dramatically increase durability and tuning life of the skis.Symmetric FlexThe same flex pattern in front and behind your boot conforms to terrain equally riding forward and backwards.eB tester’s comments: Mark (Trainer) A great park ski that won't bust the bank. They feel light on your feet yet solid, perfect for jibbing on whether kickers or handrails are your thing, or just playing over the whole mountain.Technical SpecificationsSize (cm)Tip Width
