The read

The Anomaly 102 is an all-mountain freeride ski with a 102mm waist, placing it wider than most all-mountain skis in the catalog and suited to soft snow and off-piste terrain. Double titanal and a weight near the top of its category cohort lean it toward stability and composure in variable conditions, while a rocker-camber-rocker profile aids turn initiation and float. Its long-radius bias and demanding construction reward a skier who drives it with commitment at speed.

Specs & what they mean

What the Anomaly 102's numbers add up to, as a model — the three things that define how it skis.

Turn & shape

A long 21.0-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 2,240 g it's a heavy ski built to stay planted and push through chop.

Float & width

At 102 mm it leans toward soft-snow float while keeping enough edge to hold when it firms up. Rocker at tip and tail lets it smear and release easily, while the camber underfoot keeps an edge.
