The Drive was built with intermediate all-mountain skiers in mind who are looking to explore the mountain and occasionally venture off trail. The Intuitive profile combines solid edge hold with easy turn release to help progressing skiers gain confidence on hardpack and explore more challenging terrain off-piste. The specially designed Transer Zone (TZ) in the tip allows for efficient edge transfer, while the slight rise in the tail allows the ski to easily disengage at the end of the turn.
Skier Style + AbilityIntermediate-Advanced skiers looking for a versatile ski that can perform on groomers and hardpack, as well as in variable off-trail conditions.
Shape + FlexThe Intuitive Profile combines camber and rocker with all-mountain sidecut. The 100% traditional camber underfoot allows for precise turn initiation and solid edge hold, while the rocker in the tip and tail maintain the ski's widest point of contact with the snow 5 times longer than a traditional ski for more stability and control. This profile gives you the benefit of a rockered ski without sacrificing the dynamic energy of a traditional camber ski.
Construction + CoreEnergy frame construction with a Transfer Zone (TZ) in the tip for more precise and efficient edge transfer into each turn. The core is a light-weight wood composite core which gives the ski versatility and makes it a forgiving ski for intermediate skiers.
