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 18.0-meter radius draws medium-to-long turns and holds a line through them; a moderate taper keeps entry manageable without giving up much grip mid-arc.
A 18.0-meter radius draws medium-to-long turns and holds a line through them; a moderate taper keeps entry manageable without giving up much grip mid-arc.
Stability & dampness
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 1,810 g it stays light and maneuverable.
A full titanal layup gives it a damp, planted build that holds a line through rough snow and rewards a forward, driving stance. At 2,090 g there's real mass behind the metal to settle it at speed.
Float & width
At 98 mm it leans toward soft-snow float while keeping enough edge to hold when it firms up. Rocker at tip and tail lets it smear and release easily, while the camber underfoot keeps an edge.
