The read

The Peregrine 78 is a frontside all-mountain ski built for groomers, piste, moguls, and mixed snow, sitting among the narrowest skis in its category cohort. Its three-radius sidecut and tip-and-tail rocker favor short, crisp turns and quick edge-to-edge transitions, while the glass frame and 3D.Glass layup add stability and rebound without metal. At nearly the heaviest in its category cohort, it rewards a skier who drives it actively and wants agile, engaged carving on firm to mixed terrain.

Specs & what they mean

What the Peregrine 78's numbers add up to, as a model — the three things that define how it skis.

Turn & shape

A three-radius sidecut blends a shorter radius at the tip and tail with a longer one underfoot, so turn shape changes with how hard the ski is driven — tighter entry, longer and steadier through the arc.

Stability & dampness

Built without metal on a multilayer woodcore, it's lighter and livelier underfoot — easy to release from a turn and quick edge to edge. Even without metal, 2,910 g gives it a planted, substantial feel underfoot.

Float & width

At 78 mm it's a narrow, firm-snow ski — quick from edge to edge and built to grip hardpack rather than float. Rocker at tip and tail lets it smear and release easily, while the camber underfoot keeps an edge.
