When it's not really a pow day and not really a groomer day but you just want something light, snappy and fun, the Line Skis Sakana Skis are just the thing to head out on. Super ni mble feeling underfoot, and surprising adept at handling half a foot of fresh as well as railing some cord, the Sakana isn't just a novelty anymore. Product Details Rocker Type Early Rise™ – Tip and tail lift away from the snow to bring the contact points closer to the center of the ski. This increases a ski's lift in deep snow and allows it to engage more quickly on hardpack. Rocker Profile – 10mm Tip / 4mm Camber / 0mm Tail @ 174 Flex Directional Flex – The softer tip floats and initiates turns easily while the stiffer tail provides power, stability and high speed control. Sidecut 5-Cut™ Geometry – Five different radiuses are blended into the ski's sidecut. The result? A wide variety of turn shapes and an intuitive feel. Shape Swallowtail – A dramatic tail knockout de-couples the farthest reaches of the effective edge while simultaneously forcing the tail of the ski down in soft snow. The result is a ski that can be ridden at shorter lengths without sacrificing performance. Core Maple and Paulownia Wood Core Laminates Carbon Flax Tape – Carbon Stringers offset by Flax Taping create added stiffness without the pingy, deflective properties of Carbon. Sidewalls Sidewall Construction – Ultra-high density Polyethylene vertical walls over the edges to absorb vibrations and provide powerful energy transmission. Base Sintered 1.3 mm Base – Sintered bases reduce friction against the snow allowing for more speed, and more durability due to the high-density material they're crafted from. Edges 2.1mm x 2mm Binding Compatibility We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.
