5 Star Rating

The Ultimate Lightweight Backcountry Ski

By Ranked #17 - Telemark Skis and Alpine Touring Skis August 29, 2009

This ski is absolutely perfect for late spring and early summer skiing: the weight of a skinny rando race ski, but ideal performance for spring corn, and reasonable enough performance for unexpected unconsolidated snow . . . whether the mushy stuff lower down on big volcanoes or some unexpected powder as shown in the attached pic (Snowdome on Hood, Memorial Day Weekend 2008).
The skin attachment system works very well: super quick to get on-off, very secure, and offers the option of peeling back the skin from either the tip or the tail. Or you can even just make your own, as shown here:
