ALL MOUNTAIN ALL MOUNTAIN VANTAGE X PISTE POWER LIGHTWEIGHT AGILITY ALL-MOUNTAIN VERSATILITY Last year’s revamped Vantage range nailed the blend of lightness and stability needed for progressive all-mountain skiing. But as the majority of all-mountain skiers still spend most of the time on piste, we’ve created the all-new Vantage X. It’s a system ski series that features the successful lighter, stronger Vantage construction plus our new Exo Profile, cutting weight by 20% in total. It’s got an innovative piste design with a sportier shape and thinner waist, finished with a rich durable top sheet ideal for retail and rental. Perfect on piste and ready to go off the side, too. XTRA LIGHT. XTRA POWERFUL. ALSO FEATURES Power Woodcore, Ti Backbone 2.0 and All Mountain Rocker. CARBON TANK MESH A layer of super rigid, woven mesh that adds strength across the ski while actually reducing weight. FIREWALL Vantage’s extra-full sidewall blocks disruptive vibration and transmits 100% power for solid edge grip.

Around the main core are the materials that fine-tune the performance of a ski.
LAMINATES
TITANIUM POWEREDA titanium layer above and below the core creates supreme shock absorption, strong running stability and a high torsional flex.
TITANIUM STABILIZEROne titanium layer under the core for great shock absorption and torsional flex.
TITANIUM BACKBONEA titanium insert runs the length of the ski on top of the core like a stabilizing backbone – really dynamic and stable for all-mountain skis.
FIBERGLASS LAMINATESFiberglass layers that are great for torsional stiffness across the length and width of the ski. Lightweight and very dynamic.
CARBON POWEREDA carbon layer above and below the core – for high strength at low weight in skis like the Ultimate.
CARBON TANK MESHIn Vantage and Vantage X – a layer of super rigid, woven mesh that adds strength across the ski without adding weight.
CARBON BACKBONEA dynamic carbon insert for our lightweight backcountry skis: Backland FR and Backland.
SKI TECHNOLOGY
At the core of every ski are the materials – and particularly the different types of wood – that determine how it behaves.
CORES
ULTRA POWER WOODCOREMade from strong beech and lightweight poplar – for supreme running stability and agility in our racing skis.
POWER WOODCOREA combination of hard ash and light poplar that’s stable and sporty for our high performance skis.
LIGHT WOODCOREMade from poplar – ideal for our powder, all-mountain and freeride touring skis that need to be strong but really light.
ULTRA LIGHT WOODCOREThe poplar and caruba woodcore for skis that are all about low weight, like our touring skis.
DENSOLITE COREA foam core that’s agile and dampens vibrations – for effortless skiing.
We use 7000-Series sintered bases that are fast on any snow, can stand up to anything, and are easy to maintain.
BASES
Our edges are made from steel five times more wear resistant than standard steel, for strength and perfect grip.
EDGES
Our topsheets are lightweight and highly resistant (made 50% from rapeseed oil).

Sidewalls affect how the ski dampens impacts and transmits power. We use five different types to suit different types of snow and skiing.
SIDEWALLS
STEP DOWN SIDEWALLFeatures a symmetrical step on each end that’s stable, light and durable.
FIREWALLExtra full under the binding with flex grooves for awesome power transmission and edge grip on hard pack.
FULL SIDEWALLRuns across the full length of the ski for precise steering, ideal for high-performing race and piste skis.
TAPERED SIDEWALLThicker towards the rear of the ski for extra acceleration and steering at high speed.
FULL CAPA construction with no sidewall where the top sheet folds down over the edges, making it easy to handle.

Our skis consistently outperform other skis in their class. One reason is our constant strive for meaningful, targeted innovation that makes a genuine difference:
Rocker is an early rise in the tip, and sometimes the tail, of a ski. In all our skis this rocker is combined with traditional camber for outstanding edge-hold and stability. Generally, the more rocker there is the more performance and floatation you get in powder, and the more maneuverability and versatility in any snow. The more camber a ski has the more grip and performance you get on hard terrain. To make sure each ski in our range is set up for the snow it’s going to be used on, our rocker technology features five specific rocker shapes:
PERFORMANCE TECHNOLOGY ROCKER TECHNOLOGY
The third generation of our hugely successful Redster Doubledeck technology. It includes a free-gliding upper deck to increase stability and dampening, softer connectors at the front to make turn initiation easier, and stiffer connectors at the back for killer acceleration.
DOUBLEDECK 3.0
Featured on our Vantage X and Vantage skis, Carbon Tank Mesh is a layer of super rigid, woven mesh that forms a light, strong layer in the ski construction. This adds stability across the ski and replaces layers in the construction, so also reduces weight.
CARBON TANK MESH
The Exo Profile is a radical 3D profile on our new Vantage X skis that features slanted sides with reinforced ridges. This shaping cuts swing weight and adds rigidity. It also stops the topsheet chipping and scratching, which is ideal for a longer life – and therefore rental.
EXO PROFILE
Our Cloud skis feature ARC Technology. This technology means the ski has only one mounting point in the center of the ski – the Anchor Point. This frees the ski to flex naturally like a bow, resulting in perfect traction and smooth, natural rides with less effort.
ARC TECHNOLOGY
Featured on the Backland Bent Chetler and Backland FR, HRZN Tech takes an ABS sidewall construction and blends it with a revolutionary across-the-ski, horizontal rocker. It adds 10% more surface area in tip and tail, with less tip deflection and better tracking through chop. The ultimate design for powder skiers.
HRZN TECH
Selected skis in our kids’ and rental ranges feature a special flex zone in the binding area. This helps skiers bend their skis with less power, making turn initiation easier even for beginners.
BEND-X TECHNOLOGY
The ideal rocker shape for hard pack slopes. Its strong camber provides precise edge grip while the very slight early rise in the tip means easier turn initiation and no unwanted edge-catching. For safety at high speeds.
RACE ROCKER
The perfect rocker shape for prepared slopes. Its camber offers precise edge grip, while it has a slight early rise in the tip for easy turn initiation. The combination provides great stability.
PISTE ROCKER
Designed for the stability skiers need in the park: with a slight early rise in the tip and tail to allow for butters and confident landings.
PARK ROCKER
The most pronounced rocker we have in tip and tail, combined with camber underfoot. For awesome floatation and maneuverability in deep powder, crud and anything in between.
POWDER ROCKER
For all snow conditions and any terrain, both on and off-piste. An early rise either just in the tip, or in both tip and tail, makes this rocker super versatile.
