Line Optic

The Gas Pedal Metal Overdrive provides torsional stiffness, which essentially means the ski resists twisting when you put it on edge. This gives you reliable edge grip on hardpack and icy groomers, allowing you to carve with confidence without the ski feeling overly heavy or sluggish.

While it is an all-mountain ski, its freestyle-oriented personality and turned-up tail make it a great choice for riders who want to incorporate side hits, jumps, and creative line choices into their daily runs. It is snappy and energetic, though it may feel slightly stiffer than a dedicated park-specific ski.

The 5Cut technology blends five different radii into the sidecut, which allows the ski to naturally transition between short, snappy turns and longer, drawn-out arcs. You aren't locked into one specific turn shape, making it very intuitive for navigating variable terrain.

At 88mm underfoot, this ski is optimized for groomers and firm snow. While it can handle a few inches of fresh snow, it isn't designed as a powder-specific ski and will lack the float of wider options in deep conditions.

The Optic is designed for advanced to expert riders who want a responsive, energetic tool. Because of the metal laminate and the stiffer construction, it requires a confident driver; an intermediate skier might find it demanding, though it is an excellent platform for someone actively working on their technique.

Line uses their 'Fatty' base and edge construction, which features thicker materials than standard skis. This is specifically designed to withstand the abuse of park features, rails, and accidental rock strikes, extending the overall lifespan of the ski.
