STUDIO PROGRESSIVE TWIN

Product Features

 

Poplar Core

Poplar is a light-colored, medium-weight, and durable softwood with excellent flex and vibration absorption. It enhances performance by providing impressive pop, buttering, and stability. Poplar ensures skis offer exceptional grip and torsional stability on the downhill and in the park.

 

Carbon Stringers

Ski light and stable with 8-12 unidirectional carbon strips on either side of the wood core. These are seamlessly woven into the fiberglass, boosting ski stability without adding bulk. Reap the benefits of strength & stiffness throughout the full length of your skis with minimal weight penalty.

 

Boat Flex

For high-speed stability and maximum pop in aerial maneuvers, the 'Boat Flex' ski pattern is unmatched. Featuring a stiffer tip and tail combined with a softer mid-ski section under the binding, it is perfect for those seeking a true freeride master.

 

Elliptical Sidecut

The Elliptical Sidecut features a longer radius underfoot for quicker, easier pivots, and shorter radius in the tip and tail for effortless turn initiation. This innovative sidecut supports a wide range of turn lengths, angles, and mounting positions, enhancing your skiing versatility and control.

 

Carbon And Rubber Stomp Pad

A 600mm-long, 15mm-wide carbon & rubber inlay adds strength where it matters most. Protecting not only the wood core from heavy-duty impacts, it adds stability and vibration absorption under your boots, so that stomped landings feel better, both for you and your skis.

 

Recycled Materials

We work closely with production partners to eliminate material waste. We mix base, sidewall and topsheet material scraps back into the raw material used for production, reducing carbon emissions and maintaining the same level of quality & durability.

 

XL 2.5mm Edges

A ski's edge is critical to its performance and handling. Our skis are crafted with XL edges that are 25% wider than the industry average. They're built to last.

 

Full Strength Sidewall

Experience superior edge hold and stability with the XL Full Strength sidewall. This construction adds protective strips along the core, shielding the woodcore, edges, and topsheet from impact and damage. Enhanced durability and performance with every season, peak and itinerary.

 

About the artwork

The bold visual language by Parade Studio radiates throughout the Studio Series with hypnotic lines and vivid gradients. It's all about the speed, creativity and attitude of performance freeskiing; an invite to step into the studio and start creating.
