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 14.0-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 on a poplar wood core, it's lighter and livelier underfoot — easy to release from a turn and quick edge to edge. At 1,635 g it stays light and maneuverable.
