// Weight
Traditionally, light skis are under performers because ski builders remove the materials that endow the ski with its performance characteristics in order to shed weight. It’s always been a compromise. With a carbon ski, you don’t give up anything. The materials let the ski outperform even the burliest metal constructions, while weighing on average 30% less.
- Turn initiation is instantaneous and transitions are super fast.
- In powder, you float better and go faster while expending less energy.
- Skinning is easier and more fun.
- When jumping, imagine spinning with skis that are not ounces, but pounds lighter.
