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 15.0-meter radius covers versatile, all-purpose turn shapes; a generous tip taper keeps turn entry easy and the shovel quick to engage.

Stability & dampness
A full titanal layup gives it a damp, planted build that holds a line through rough snow and rewards a forward, driving stance. At 1,950 g there's real mass behind the metal to settle it at speed.

Float & width
At 88 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.
