Head to head, by character

Each ski's own read, side by side — the same three things that define how it skis.
Turn & shape
A 13.0-meter radius covers versatile, all-purpose turn shapes; a generous tip taper keeps turn entry easy and the shovel quick to engage.
A short 11.0-meter radius with a wide, tapered tip makes for quick, easily-pivoted turns — it hooks into a turn fast and releases it just as readily.
Stability & dampness
A full titanal layup gives it a damp, planted build that holds a line through rough snow and rewards a forward, driving stance. At 1,700 g the damping comes without a heavy overall weight.
Built without metal on a poplar wood core, it's lighter and livelier underfoot — easy to release from a turn and quick edge to edge. At 1,650 g it stays light and maneuverable.
Float & width
At 87 mm it's an all-rounder leaning toward firm snow — enough width for soft conditions, still quick on edge. Rocker at tip and tail lets it smear and release easily, while the camber underfoot keeps an edge.
