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 12.7-meter radius covers versatile, all-purpose turn shapes; a generous tip taper keeps turn entry easy and the shovel quick to engage.
A 12.8-meter radius covers versatile, all-purpose turn shapes; a generous tip taper keeps turn entry easy and the shovel quick to engage.
Stability & dampness
Built without metal, it's lighter and livelier underfoot — easy to release from a turn and quick edge to edge. At 2,028 g it stays light and maneuverable.
At 1,360 g this is a light ski, quick to move underfoot.
Float & width
At 78 mm it's a narrow, firm-snow ski — quick from edge to edge and built to grip hardpack rather than float. Tip rocker eases turn entry and float; a cambered tail holds the edge through the turn.
At 78 mm it's a narrow, firm-snow ski — quick from edge to edge and built to grip hardpack rather than float. A cambered profile keeps it locked to the snow for grip rather than smear-and-release.
