Skis

2x POWDER Magazine Skier's Choice Winner! (2019 & 2020) Designed as a lightweight backcountry ripper, the Seeker became so much more. For the 2020 season the Seeker evolves into an even tougher ski! At 1720 grams (weight based on the 183cm size) the Seeker is respectably light. This we found to be the the ideal weight, light enough for any expedition or traverse but with enough heft to plow through any crud one might encounter at the ski hill. This ski for many of us became the daily driver. A ski with 112mm underfoot seemed large for an everyday ski, but its outstanding torsional rigidity and rocker sidecut profile makes it carve trenches on the hardpack and bust through crud like few skis before it. Of course, skiing the Seeker in powder will make you smile wide. The Tech: Carbon is an excellent reinforcement and the Seeker has 4 layers of it. We are using Triaxial, Double bias, Biaxial and the highest strength IM7 unidirectional weaves in this ski. The carbon combines with a full kevlar laminate underfoot and a high end fiberglass called S2 glass. Our 7 layer construction with opposing weaves and composites creates a quiet at speed, playful and super strong platform that dwarfs the industry standard of 2 layers. Of course only the fastest carbon-impregnated base material is used, stone ground to perfection. The Seeker also uses a resin-infused honeycomb tip and several layers of VDS rubber to control damping and enhance durability. To top it all off and to make our product highly durable, in the sandwich of the cap construction we are using carbon nanotube resin. With billions of carbon nanotubes in the matrix our edges and cap are tougher than anything out there. Tested this past season and stock on all 2020 skis, additional IM7 uni carbon layers have been added on the tip and tail. In addition, a basalt/innegra layer, one of the toughest fabrics on the planet for impact has been added underfoot to fend off those pesky rocks. The Core: The core is the soul of the ski and the Seeker has a special one. Borrowing techniques often employed in bow manufacturing, we bring together many thin layers of grain-optimized Aspen. These are laminated tightly under the binding screws and run the full length of the ski, tip to tail. Then, high quality quarter-sawn Sitka Spruce, that could easily have gone into a guitar, is inserted to lighten the core and smooth out the ride. On top of all that, a piece of quarter-sawn White Oak is top-laminated for binding retention and power transfer to the edges.

Rossland and Red Mountain are definitely blessed with some of the hardest charging female shredders on the planet; this is documented. When we set out to make a ski specifically for them, we found in testing that while the most common size in men’s all-mountain/powder skis was in the 185 range, for women it was closer to 170-ish. Starting from there, we developed a design and construction that has been optimized for a lighter, shorter rider who rips. The Transcend embodies the soul and the tech of the Seeker in a ski for the small(er) but mighty! It should be noted that these are generalizations some women prefer the longer stiffer Seeker platform. Our sales also tell us that some men who prefer a slightly softer ski greatly enjoy the Transcend. The 176 transcend out sold the 176 Seeker at a rate of 10:1 for men. The Tech: Carbon is an excellent reinforcement and Transcend has 4 layers of it. IM7 unidirectional and Double Bias weaves make up the four layers of carbon in this ski. The carbon combines with a full kevlar laminate underfoot and a high end fiberglass called S2 glass. Our 7 layer construction with opposing weaves and composites creates a quiet at speed, playful and super strong platform that dwarfs the industry standard of 2 layers. Of course only the fastest carbon-impregnated base material is used, stone ground to perfection. Transcend also uses a resin-infused honeycomb tip and several layers of VDS rubber to control damping and durability.

Sammy Carlson is one-of-a-kind, and he needs more than a single unique ski to handle all the creativity he unleashes on the hill. The Whitewalker 121 is the big brother to the original Whitewalker, designed for Sammy's full-throttle charging on the deepest days. It's the ultimate pow-crushing freestyle tool. The 121 waist delivers massive float to swivel, slash and stomp forwards, backwards and sideways in the most epic conditions. The ultralight core means the Whitewalker 121 is light enough for big days in the backcountry during huge storm cycles, while the stout flex with Swivel Tech 3D beveling in the pin tip and tail deliver versatility for everything from charging steeps to buttering pillows.

When deep powder is in the forecast and big terrain is on the menu, reach for the Locator 112. With a modern shape optimized for huge float and high speeds thanks to a longer radius and lower profile camber and rocker, the big dog of the Locator Series is primed for those dream days when everything lines up. A touring-focused design with a lightweight construction means even though the 112 devours descents it's efficient on the uptrack and serves up no-nonsense performance for when the backcountry demands your ultimate attention. That's a good thing because chances are you're going to want to take another lap.

We set out to build Sammy a powder twin tip that is stable enough to charge exposed lines and take big hits with maximum confidence yet light enough for foot-powered backcountry access. A strategically enhanced Caruba Core allows these concepts to merge while the rockered Pin Tip and Tail guarantee quick turn initiation, reduce drag and further lower the swingweight. Lightweight and stable, but offering plenty of release when needed, the Whitewalker perfectly compliments Sammy's laid-back, surf-inspired style that's peppered with sudden bursts of all-out aggression.

Bringing light to new heights, the ARV 116 JJ UL floats like a butterfly and cuts like a butter knife for a definitive BC freestyle experience. The JJ UL is 25% lighter than the original JJ and has been a team favotite since its inception. With less weight through the tip and tail, the JJ UL utilizes our lightest Caruba Core to create a uniquely lightweight and smooth ride when the going gets deep. Powder hounds, this ski will move fast off the shelves. Act fast, and put this limited edition JJ on your feet.

Enter the no gravity zone with the ARW 116 VJJ. Ultralight construction courtesy of a Caruba Core and 1.7 Lightweight Edge sheds weight, helping make ARW 116 VJJ the most well-rounded womens powder ski out there. Featuring EST Freeride Rocker for increased maneuverability slashing pillows and charging through the trees along with Smear Tech, 3D beveling on the tips and tails of the base, the VJJ allows for limitless directions of floating through pow, no matter the terrain.

We all know it's the size of the fight in the dog that matters. For too long smaller-framed shredders have been overlooked during ski development, relegated to half-baked shrunken chargers or noodly wigglers. Not anymore. The Short Pants Paradox was designed from the ground up with a 112 waist, powerful flex and long turn radius to provide high-performance big-mountain charging characteristics in a shorter length. Everyone from big mountain competition juniors to shredding women and men who don't require the surface area and float of longer lengths can enjoy a ski designed to lace 20-meter turns down the fall line at high speeds while trusting the SPP to stand up to all the punishment they can dish out.

We tasked our athletes with designing the most progressive and playful freeride powder ski on the mountain: meet the QST BLANK. Pillow-popping and powder-loving, the BLANK is built for deep days at 112mm underfoot. A progressive shape enhances the flotation and playfulness of your turns, while its construction provides the stability you rely on. Charge resort laps, or mount the BLANK with the SHIFT for touring. PLAYFULNESS/AGILITY - By adjusting the shape of the ski, lowering the widest points and lengthening the rocker, the BLANK brings playfulness to all types of turns, yet also maintains reliability Floatation - A 112mm waist takes you from pillows, to powder, to steeps with confidence. Camber underfoot and early rise in the tip and tail adapt to whatever the mountain throws at you. Power & Stability - C/FX carbon in the tip and tail adds power, but allows for quick, pivoting turns. Double sidewalls and Cork Damplifier create confidence-boosting stability when dropping in. Details: - Construction: Full Sandwich Sidewalls - Shape Profile: Twin Rocker - Tail Rocker Profile: 25% - Tip Rocker Profile: 28% - Topsheet: Glossy - Franchise: QST - Norm: Adult - Pack Ski + Binding: No - Techno: C/FX, WoodCore - Waist Width: 101 - 118

The perfect backcountry partner is someone who is up for anything and will never let you down whether the conditions are all time, apocalyptic or something in between. Sounds a lot like the Locator 104. Multi-day hut trip in your future? The lightweight construction will keep you going on the skin track. Blower pow in the sidecountry? Ample rocker and a blended tail shape let you point it down the fall line or throw it sideways in bottomless snow on demand. When you need one ski with a soft snow focus that can do it all with predictable performance, the Locator 104 is ready.

The ARW 106 UL is the evolution of the long-sought one-ski quiver for the shredder who does a little bit of everything. An ultralight Caruba Core lowers the swingweight and keeps things light when boosting airs or hitting the bootpack to get that secret stash. The Smear Tech base's edgeless beveled tips and tails help the ski effortlessly float in powder and charge through crud without deflecting while enabling a surfy feel and catch-free butters. With sizes going up to 180 and 188, we expect plenty of your guy friends looking for versatile performance with a unique, ultralight construction to pick these up as well.
