Technology

EST Freeride Rocker
Fore body rocker and extra tip taper combine for optimized float in the soft stuff. Positive camber under foot with no tail rocker ensures edge hold so skis stay on rails when carving is the priority.

Caruba Core
A light wood core material creates the best uphill feel while retaining the power and damping characteristics required for descending the gnarliest terrain. This core makes no performance concessions in its quest to be ultra-light.

1.7 Lightweight Edge
Light and strong, this heat-treated edge minimally affects the feel of the ski to ensure a snappy, lightweight feel.

Comp Series Base
Sintered UHMW polyethylene with added carbon creates a fast base without sacrificing durability.

TI Binding Dampner
Below the binding, a sandwich of rubber and Titanal works to reduce vibration that otherwise chatters into your boots and shortens your day. The extra damping lets you ski bell-to-bell.

Carbon Appliation
Carbon appliation to provide excellent energy rebound.

AR Bat Tail self Center Tail Clip Design
Backcountry = Bat Country with this tail clip zone built into ski that always keeps skins centered and secure.

AR75 Sidewall
Sidewall on 75% of the ski to allow for weight savings on tip and tail while maintaining ridgitiy and drive in the prime zone.
