The read

The Serpo is a directional all-mountain ski with a 93mm waist, sitting wider than most all-mountain skis in the catalog and suited to mixed on- and off-piste terrain. Its double titanal plate underfoot and long-radius bias lean toward stability and edge grip at speed, while rocker-camber-rocker profiling aids turn initiation and maneuverability. Mid-range weight and a poplar core keep it accessible, rewarding skiers who want confident carving arcs with some versatility beyond the groomers.

Specs & what they mean

What the Serpo's numbers add up to, as a model — the three things that define how it skis.

Turn & shape

A long 20.0-meter radius is built for open, sweeping turns that want room to run; a moderate taper keeps the shovel engaged for hold at speed rather than quickness.

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 1,750 g the damping comes without a heavy overall weight.

Float & width

At 93 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.
