Specs & what they mean

What the Playmaker 101's numbers add up to, as a model — the three things that define how it skis.

Turn & shape

A 18.1-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 tubelite woodcore, it's lighter and livelier underfoot — easy to release from a turn and quick edge to edge. At 1,685 g it stays light and maneuverable.

Float & width

At 101 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.
