  • Volkl
    • Kenja
      • Volkl Kenja Womens Twin Tip Skis 2011: The Kenja is a great ski for an advanced skier looking to explore the entire mountain. Specifically for women Volkl has made a series of improvements to the sport of skiing in the form of Bio-Logic Technologies, they are taking women's anatomy into account in regards to ski geometry and flex. The Bio-Logic Technologies make skiing easier and safer for women due to reduced stress and strain on the muscles making it easier to maneuver the skis. Bio-Logic influences the flex and geometry of the ski to make the transitions between turns easier giving you the ultimate in control. Volkl's Power Construction uses their traditional sidewall construction, an extremely versatile, proven construction method that provides superior stability and sensitivity while gripping the ice and snow like Velcro. Although the titanium sheet provides dampening properties and additional rigidity, the women's Sensorwood Light Core makes the Kenja a bit more forgiving and softer flexing than its twin brother the Kendo and big sister the Kiku.
    • Gotama

      • The new Gotama features an all new shape of 137-106-122mm. The powder and switch-riding performance is incredible, and yet if you want to use it as an every day ski you will be able to do so. Leave it to Völkl to introduce what just a few years ago would have been inconceivable: a rockered, big mountain twin tip that you can use every day at the resort.


    • Kendo
      • Featuring the proven vertical construction from the Mantra is the new Kendo (way of the sword), for the skier who wants to get even more out of the groomed runs. A new shape of 127-88-109mm is 8mm narrower at the waist than the Mantra, favoring 60% firm snow.
    • Katana

      • The Katana features a top-end, wood core and vertical sidewall construction, with two sheets of titanium. A 111mm waist gives you float, while the beefy construction gives it great handling on harder snow. For good skiers who want a deep powder ski that they can use on the groomed from time to time.


    • Mantra

      • The Mantra is the pinnacle product for the skier who wants to ski the deep stuff, yet still have a solid, all-mountain feel on the front of the mountain. Still unparalleled in the market, it’s the go-to ski for those who want a powder ski that is versatile enough to be their every day ski.


    • Kiku (women's)

      • The Kiku has been re-designed with a new shape of 137-106-122mm. We have added our ELP - Elongated Low Profile technology so that it is rockered. Our first rockered womens ski. ELP gives it incredible manueverability in the deep stuff, combined with sold groomed-snow performance.


  • Line
    • EP Pro
      • This is Eric’s, and the world’s fattest, most progressive freestyle specific powder ski, used for making the previously impossible tricks, now possible in the pow.
    • The 130
      • Year’s ahead of it’s time, it’s designed to float effortlessly in the deep stuff, without sacrificing control on the groomed, now at a price that eliminates any remaining excuses for riding skinny skis in the pow.
    • Sir Francis Bacon
      • This is Eric’s personal quiver of one. Plenty of width for the pow, tons of stability at speed, and the agility needed to use the entire mountain as his personal terrain park. NEW this year he’s added Early Rise to the tip and tail for even better float in the pow while maintaining plenty of effective edge & camber to still rip the hard pack.
    • Pandora (womens)
      • Its width, Early Rise, Early Taper and perfectly tuned flex makes Pandora one of the most fun, playful and effortless skis to ride in the powder. It’s your turn to get first tracks.
    • Prophet 100
      • The 100 has the power and stability of a big mountain ski, yet maintains the precision, agility and responsiveness of a carving ski. The result is versatility like no other 100mm width ski in its class, and top awards from product testers around the globe. Thank you for helping to make this the best selling ski in our line.
    • The Mothership
      • Powerful, high-speed, hard-charging big mountain control and stability, with a surprising amount of agility that will have you skiing it as a one ski quiver all season long.
  • Armada
    • JJ
      • This ski could very well be sold out this season, so get on a pair from our demo fleet to find out what the hype is about. With rocker at the tip and tails, camber under foot, and strategically located width, the JJ floats like a yacht in deep snow and carves like a three-fin thruster to the lift line.
    • ARG
      • The ARG is optimized for the deepest snow imaginable—maximum rocker, minimum sidecut—but because it features Elf Shoe Tech, the ski nevertheless performs in a variety of conditions. From wind-hammered snow to cut-up powder fields to the hard pack you encounter skiing back to the lift, it floats when you want it to and turns when you need it to. AR 50 Sidewall construction combines the benefits of cap construction with those of ABS, while the Ultra Light Hybrid Core ensures that what looks like a tank skis like a coupe.
    • ARV
      • When the ARV was born seven years ago, skiers demanding park-style performance all over the mountain were cutting edge innovators. Today, it's not just the Armada team members who require pop off terrain features and stability at speeds wrapped in a wide enough package for flotation in any snow condition—it's every high caliber, all-mountain skier. Like the AR6, this is an Armada legacy product and it remains virtually unchanged from last year because we haven't found a way to improve upon it. The ARV remains the benchmark in traditional all-mountain versatility.
    • El Ray

      • Only Armada can boast of team members who carry our price-point ski in their quivers. That's because the El Rey isn't designed to be affordable; it's designed to be light, lively, and durable. It achieves those characteristics with a multi-composition, torsion box core and cap construction that provide a balanced flex pattern throughout the life of the ski. That we've sourced these materials at a reasonable price isn't enough to warrant an Armada logo on the top sheet; that it's good enough for our top riders is.


  • Icelantic
    • Nomad
      • The Nomad is the explorer, the adventurer, the trekker. Able to tackle any and every snow condition, at ease among ridges and peaks, and eager to lay into any terrain, the Nomad is an exceptional tool of versatility. Its shape and flex give The Nomad remarkable stability, superb maneuverability and explosive power. If you favor a bit of everything and want a ski that can handle anything, the Nomad is the ski for you!
    • Shaman
      • With a truly unique shape and design, The Shaman balances the skier’s weight allowing a forward, powerful powder turn unlike anything you have ever believed possible. The Shaman provides excellent maneuverability while its 160 mm tip rivals even the biggest powder skis in floatation and stability. And don’t be fooled by the wide girth, the Shaman rips the groomers with its aggressive sidecut and torsional rigidity. So go ahead, shed your inner demons and put The Shaman to the test.
    • Keeper

      • Just when you thought that Icelantic couldn’t outdo the Shaman they come up with the Keeper, and it’s a keeper. The early rise tip and tail is amplified by the the traditional camber underfoot. The Keeper will float like nobody’s business in the pow and power through manky crud like Marv Heemeyer went through Granby. Quick to accelerate and incredibly stable, if you like big fat skis the Keeper could be the one for ski for you.


  • 4FRNT
    • Renegade
      • The 4FRNT Renegade is a big mountain powder ski, if you like to slay the gnar on a blower day then this is the ski for you. With its early rise tips, 122 mm waist and flat camber under foot the Renegade has superb flotation on powder and blasts over the crud. The Renegade’s trad side-cut and slight pin-tail shape in the back means this powder ski can also serve you well when you’re forced to ski groomers.
    • EHP
      • The EHP186 is the softer big-mountain alternative.  If your not to heavy, this ski gives you more response than the longer models and works is my favourite ski for cruising powder by far. The most surprising thing about the EHP is that it is (being as big as it is) really easy to maneuver, even through the tight norwegian woods. 
    • Turbo
      • 4FRNT introduces the C.R. Johnson pro model (CRJ) and adds tip rocker to the VCT (VCT turbo). The wood-cored CRJ features regular camber underfoot and reverse camber in the tip and tail - an excellent choice for freestyle powder junkies.
    • MSP
      • Steep trees, afternoon bumped out groomers, big tables, lunch and then back out there, powder stashes and homeruns. If you ski resorts, occasionally take off work for powder days and ski like everyday is your last, then you'll probably like the MSP. Matt designed and redesigned this ski around the resort lifestyle and the race for freshies. Dual turn radius, wide and stable shapes make this your ski, open to close, day in and day out.
    • Madonna
      • You rip! You need skis that support the performance it takes when showing up all your male ski buddies. The Madonna is your saving grace. She comes stacked threes sizes deep so like all fashionable possessions, we got just the right size for you. Each length has been designed with a similar, versatile cut to dominate the whole mountain. Pink Rock graphics, a wood core and sandwich construction will ensure this girl is the life of the party.
  • DPS
    • Lotus 120

      • The Lotus 120 is the original 120mm class pintail, Access new levels of creativity and style; slash wave features, side-slide into airs, and generate power and style in big trips across the fall line. Unlike most powder skis that are simply wider versions of their conventional cousins, the Lotus120¹s shaping is highly optimized for deep snow, while carbon makes 120mm surprisingly manageable and versatile across mixed snow conditions. A mainstay is a longer rocker in all sizes and deeper splay in the 190cm.


    • Lotus 138

      • The patent pending Lotus 138 is the first deeply rockered ski with minimal sidecut underfoot. First released in 2005, it has since gone through three rocker evolutions and two flex pattern changes. The goal has been to create ski that promotes early planing, incredible power across the fall line, and unmatched creativity in turn shape. Advanced shaping derived straight from continual Alaskan R&D combined with the DPS CFS 450 makes the Lotus 138 is the most evolved and powerful powder ski build on earth.
