The Chronic is a benchmark all mountain freestyle ski with the build, shape & performance that other brands try to match. This award-winning ski delivers a poppy ride that crushes big-line jump laps as well as smooth high-speed burns all over the mountain. This is a well thought out & well-made ski. The core uses Line’s legendary Maple Macroblock with 2 full length maple stringers surrounded by aspen for increased strength & durability. The Symmetric Flex ensures the same flex pattern in front & behind the binding, meaning the ski feels the same riding forward or back. Thin Tip uses a thin core & sidewall in the tip, saving 100grams a pair for reduced swing weight & easier tricks. The 5 Cut Sidecut uses 5 different radii blended together to create a variety of turn shapes & an intuitive feel. It’s this combination of design & materials that makes the Chronic a proper all mountain option, more so than many other freestyle skis, & without any loss of performance in the park. It will pop, slide & jump as well as any of the 95mm all mountain freestyle skis, & then leave them in its spray when it’s time to charge other terrain. If you invest your money on these skis you want them to last & Line pay attention to this with Fatty Base & edge tech plus Tuff Top design. The edges & base are 30% thicker than standard skis, with their 2mm wide & 2.5mm high edges plus 1.7mm thick base, dramatically increasing durability & tuning life. The textured tougher top materials resist scratches & abuse for longer, protecting the look & life of the ski. Not just great skis, but tough ones too. If you want one ski to do everything well, from park to powder & all the terrain in between then the Chronic is the ski. ...

experience the ski that everyone is talking about. The Ski Of The Year from Powder Magazine proved the ski world is hungry for new shapes & product inspiration. The Line Sakana is a versatile all-mountain ski like no other on the market. With a 105mm waist & signature swallowtail design, the Sakana offers unmatched carving abilities paired with deep snow float. This is the best ski for all mountain carving, slashing & just generally having a great time. Grab yourself a pair of Sakana’s & start drawing your own lines down the mountain. Terrain Type & Ability Level Terrain Type It’s a new take on an all mountain ski, as happy ripping out tight carves on groomed pistes as it is slashing turns on deep powder or popping off natural features. It’s certainly different & it’s definitely fun. Skier Type All mountain skiers who want a fun, playful ski that also has bags of performance for turning & burning. Maybe your park skis just don’t have the zip you require or the ability to keep up with your buddies on piste, or maybe your traditional all mountain skis don’t have the fun factor & pop of your favourite twins. The Sakana covers this, so if you want one ski to do everything, even powder laps, & you want to do it with blend of park pop & piste turning then look no further. Overview Shape The shape is certainly a head turner, with the deep sidecut & the swallowtail. 105mm might sound wide in the waist but with the 15m (174cm) radius, & the clever shape & construction, the Sakana remains playful at all times. A 5 Cut Multi Radius Sidecut blends 5 different radii so that the ski is comfortable in a variety of turns & keeps an intuitive feel. early Taper at the tip means the widest point of the sidecut begins tapering earlier which reduces hook-ups in powder. Rockerearly Rise at the tip means it lifts 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 & allows it to engage more quickly on hardpack when rolled over on edge. Core Line’s Partly Cloudy core uses stringers of paulownia & maple. The paulownia is a lively, flexible wood with excellent weight to strength ratio; the maple is a dense, hardwood with excellent power transfer & stability. This combination helps keep the weight down without sacrificing performance. Carbon Stringers add pop but are offset by Flax Taping with the result that stiffness is added without the pingy, deflective properties of carbon. Construction Sidewall Construction uses an ultra-high density polyethylene over the edges to absorb vibrations & provide powerful energy transmission. Key Features Swallowtail The most striking element of the design is the swallowtail. This is a dramatic tail knockout that de-couples the farthest reaches of the effective edge while simultaneously forcing the tail of the ski down in soft snow. The result is a ski that can be ridden at shorter lengths without sacrificing performance. An eye-catcher for sure in the lift line but it's not just eye-candy, designer & skier eric Pollard pushed for this feature after experiencing its advantages in surfing & snowboard designs. The swallowtail is as important as what it is, as what it's not! The absence of material in the tail drastically reduces weight while the shape maintains a long effective edge for arching turns & staying in control. In powder, the tail drops you back in the snow lifting your tips for ample flotation while maintaining a neutral skiing stance so you're not in the backseat trying to stay afloat. For those concerned about durability have no fear, the tail is reinforced with titanal so stay in once piece. Directional Flex The softer tip floats & initiates turns easily while the stiffer tail provides power, stability & high speed control.e B tester’s comments: Luke (Buying Team) I was luckily enough to use these on a powder day, dipping off the piste for some fresh turns & back on lower down. They floated with ease, never felt like you had to work to keep the tips up. You could really feel the tail spit you out of turns with tonnes of energy & life. Probably the most fun I had during the whole week.
