VERSATILE & SUPER MANOEUVRABLE ALL MOUNTAIN SKIS

A SLAP particularly effecient in all conditions. The SLAP 98 is even more versatile than it’s bigger brother, the SLAP 104. In addition to its ease in carving, the ski pivots very easily. The transition between turns is even more intuitive than the rest of the lineup. The SLAP 98 feels perfect under the feet giving the skier a sense of power and control. A great compromise between good grip on hard pack and good float in powder. The embodiment of versatility.

    Heavy Duty Light + Linen
    Lightness and power to hit the slopes and the large fields of fresh snow. This construction uses multi-axial fiberglass, increasing the skiability and power of the ski by providing stiffness in torsion and flexion. We added linen fiber as well to allows maximum vibration absorption and provides a better comfort. The goal is also to reduce the final weight of these skis to XXL sizes, hence the presence in the wood core of paulownia, for lightness, in addition to the poplar, for resistance. In the end, this construction makes skis light, playful, stable at high speed and resistant in time! Characteristics that have, over the years, written the legend around the famous SLAP.

    Half CAP
    Forces transmission is facilitated by our half cap sandwich construction, which also procures more grip on harder snows. The ABS sidewalls design on the sides make the skis live longer by increasing shock absorption and bring an extra layer against the cold.

    5 Point Shape
    Specific shape technic that enables us to increase the manoeuvrability of the ski without extend too much the rocker (which can bring some vibrations). Feature based on the variation of the lengthwise from the widest points of the ski: we gather the widest points as close as possible of the center to make the ski playful and turn easily.
    shape_multirayon
    Multi-radius shape
    Drawing technic that provides us to change the radius in several independents zones (tip, center, tail). it brings the radius much shorter underfoot (increased handling) whilst keeping tips and tail tolerance for the hardest snow.
