DPS Wailer

The 15m turn radius is relatively tight, making these skis exceptionally quick edge-to-edge. This design excels in technical terrain like trees and chutes where you need to make rapid adjustments, though it will feel less stable than a longer-radius ski when making wide, high-speed arcs on open groomers.

Not necessarily. While the carbon adds responsiveness and energy, the poplar wood core provides a damp, natural flex that keeps the ski from feeling overly demanding. It balances performance with an intuitive feel that remains approachable for a variety of skill levels.

With 60% effective edge and a 40% rocker profile, these skis offer a solid grip on firm snow. The rocker helps with turn initiation and maneuverability, while the effective edge ensures you have enough contact with the snow to hold a carve confidently.

These sidewalls are designed to reduce the environmental footprint of the ski by using sustainable, plant-based materials. Crucially, they are engineered to match the durability and performance characteristics of traditional petroleum-based sidewalls, so you don't have to sacrifice edge hold or impact resistance.

Yes, with a weight of 1800g and a construction optimized for agility, this ski is well-suited for fitness-oriented touring and ski mountaineering. Its nimble nature makes it easy to handle on technical ascents and variable descents.
