Line EP Pro Alpine Ski

The Line EP Pro has been fasting all summer, but now it's back for another helping of the deepest deep. Eric Pollard's pow-specific pro model has a crazy fat, progressive shape and super-springy flex, turning any backcountry bowl into your personal terrain garden. He and Line incorporated early rise on both ends to make the ski pop to the surface like a cork in oil, then sink slightly rearward so you don't need to sit on your tails. Meanwhile, the early taper shovel and tail decrease hooking in powder and make slarvy smear turns second-nature. Underfoot, the flat base and standard sidecut let you rip up crud, groomers, and even hardpack while the kids on reverse-camber, reverse-sidecut boards flail toward the liftline. Fatty base and edge design shields your sticks from nasty core shots, edge blow outs, and season after season of tuning. As usual, Eric designed the topsheet and base graphics for the EP Pro, so if you hate ‘em, you'll have to tell him yourself.

Bottom Line: You won't believe it's not butter.

Great Ski

I've gotten a few looks in the lift line with these things on my feet, but the way down is worth it. They float like a dream, and the flat spot underfoot allows for good control on the way back to the lift. I only took them out about 6 times last year and was blown away every time.

My all time favorite ski is the Sir francis bacon which I use...

My all time favorite ski is the Sir francis bacon which I use in all conditions at Alyeska. I was thinking about a pair of EP pro's with Marker Duke's as a backcountry, occasional resort setup. Any thoughts? My only concern is going much wider than the Bacon. I am however intrigued by the early rise concept. My dream ski would be the Bacon with just a hint of early rise and about 5 cm longer. I guess my question is would the Duke's compliment this ski or sort of defeat the purpose?

EP pros with dukes is a rather large setup. If you are "touring" go lighter(smaller). If you are just skinning back up from the side country then it will work just fine. You may be able to settle for the Marker Barons...depends on your weight. Remember, fat skis will require fat skins and beefy binders that will add weight.

Love these skis

By:

I got a pair of these in February last year and probably got 6 days on them. All in 8+ inches of Colorado fluff. The float was unbelievable. I had them center mounted, which took some getting used to. I'm still not sure that's how I want to keep them, as I'm used to a more traditional alpine binding location. The flat spot underfoot really lets you control the ski on the way back to the lift. I wouldn't recommend this as your every day ski (unless you only ski powder days).

I live in the great NW Eh? The month of January, I had these 2 orgasms attached to my feet every day, In over 3 feet of blower pow at hood, to 2 feet of new at White Pass, Multiple days at Alpental. If you like bombing anything at any speed you want and being in complete control in retardedly deep snow. This is your boy. Every time I see it's snowed more than 8" I get giddy every time I can click into these. Full Laid out powder turns under low chairs makes the guys on chair 2 get doused with snow, they even love them. In all reality, I've riddin my friends 189 K2 Hellbent's and they kicked my ass everywhere, threw me around like a rag doll compared to these ski's. These EP's are ALOT floppier and more buttery. GET THEM NOW

Took these out on a day with no new snow, and icy. And although i really wouldn't recommend these for those kind of days primarily, they are actually not bad on hardpack. The park was really fun with them too, and of course...powder is sick on these things. definitely recommend them

Floats Like A Dream!

These skis are incredible! Very light and handled very easily through the pow. They actually work pretty well on the groomers and hardpack if you're on your way back to the lift. A definite must have for the Montana Cold Smoke!

Pollard did it right

Great ski. Bring it out for big dumps and backcountry days. The rocker on this ski makes it a must have for any quiver. Great for JH, AK, and UT.
