Line Men's Blade Optic 96 Ski

5CUT™ MULTI-RADIUS SIDECUT
FIVE different radiuses are blended into the ski’s sidecut. The result? A wide variety of turn shapes and an intuitive feel.

GAS PEDAL METAL
Titanal focused across the ski width provides increased edge grip and torsional stability while maintaining a lively feel along the length of the ski. Two independent tip and tail Titanal pieces add extra power and energy. 

EARLY RISE
The 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 when rolled over on edge. 

SIDEWALL CONSTRUCTION
Ultra-High Density Polyethylene vertical walls over the edges absorb vibrations and provide powerful energy transmission.

ASPEN VENEER CORE
An amalgam of Aspen Stringers brought together for a lightweight, snappy, and engaged feel.

DIRECTIONAL FLEX
The softer tip floats & initiates turns easily while the stiffer tail provides power, stability & high speed control.

FATTY BASE & EDGE™
30% thicker base & edge, 2mm wide x 2.5mm high steel edges and 1.7mm thick base dramatically increase durability and tuning life of the skis.

OVERDRIVE™
Titanal focused vertically throughout the ski, extending throughout the tip and tail designed to add stability, power, and precision. 

THIN TIP™
A thin core & sidewall in the tips are 100 grams lighter per pair for reduced swing weight & tip bounce.
