Best playful all mountain ski for intermediate to advanced freestyle skiers.
This is a dedicated park tool that refuses to compromise on all-mountain versatility. While the lightweight, snappy construction makes it incredibly easy to throw around on rails and jumps, you sacrifice some dampness at high speeds in favor of pure, energetic agility.
