The read

A frontside all-mountain ski built for groomed terrain with versatile off-piste capability, the Captis pairs a rocker-camber-rocker profile with a poplar-fiberglass construction for easy turn initiation and a lively, accessible feel. Its turn radius sits toward the longer end of the all-mountain cohort, favoring sweeping arcs and stability over quick pivots. Without metal, it rewards skiers who want an approachable, playful ride rather than those demanding maximum composure at high speed in rough conditions.

Specs & what they mean

What the Captis's numbers add up to, as a model — the 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.

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 1,800 g it stays light and maneuverable.

Float & width

At 90 mm it's a balanced all-mountain width — real float for soft snow without giving up much hardpack quickness. Rocker at tip and tail lets it smear and release easily, while the camber underfoot keeps an edge.
