Initial Lengths: 185cm, 178cm Dimensions: 151/124/133 Radius: 23M Construction: Proprietary Pure3, Spooned. 1. TOPSHEET We have been immersed deep in the R+D lab over the past few months. The hunt for ski perfection has begun anew: this time at more elemental levels as we search for axiomatic relationships between shape and flex pattern. The first Powderworks ski to emerge from those efforts is a Lotus concept that combines new geometric discoveries with a quest for ultimate versatility in a 120mm pow shape. We have drawn positive cues from all across the current quiver: effective edge geometry drawn from the Wailer 105, paddle and rocker from the Wailer 112RP, boot-to-overall length balance of the original Lotus 120, and a new sidecut/taper angle combined with a radically new flex pattern. 2. LotusBlogSupportImg2 The design results in a balanced ski that elegantly walks the tightrope between a deeply rockered/paddle design and a directional, flat-tailed driven design. We are aiming for the best of both worlds in a 120mm Spooned class powder stick that will be able to perform double duty in mixed snow. 3.

About DPS Powderworks  Each year Powderworks releases a special batch of uniquely designed and constructed skis. Thus far, we’ve brewed Powderworks editions of the Lotus 120, Lotus 138, and for 2015/16, an all-new creation joins the family, the Lotus 124. The Lotus 124 represents the first new model/shape to debut under the Powderworks wing that will likely see a future mainstream release. Powderworks Lotus shapes are mated with ultra-light cores and increased dampening components compared to Pure3 builds for a further differentiated space-age ride. The result is incredibly light, tourable pow sticks built to charge and absorb mixed snow when needed. These are factory hot-boxed limited edition pairs. While their standard Pure3 versions are completely unrivaled in their respective classes in terms of the power-to-weight ratio, Powderworks editions up the ante offering skiers the chance to buy future developments now.
