Blade Optic 96 skis 2024
About Blade Optic 96 skis 2024
Ideal for anyone who enjoys high-speed skiing with confidence, the award-winning LINE Blade Optic 96 represents the narrowest ski in the Blade Optic collection that harnesses the power of Gas Pedal Metal Overdive™. With a chevron shape of Titanal underfoot that expands into the forebody and rear of the ski, you'll experience immense edge grip on hard snow, with a powerful, smooth ride in cut-up snow and chop.
FEATURES
Early Rise™
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.
Rocker Profile
10mm Tip / 2mm Camber / 9mm Tail
Directional Flex
The softer tip floats and initiates turns easily while the stiffer tail provides power, stability and high speed control.
5-Cut™ Geometry
Five different radiuses are blended into the ski's sidecut. The result? A wide variety of turn shapes and an intuitive feel.
Aspen Veneer Core
An amalgam of Aspen Stringers brought together for a lightweight, snappy, and engaged feel.
Gas Pedal Metal Overdrive™
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 power and energy.
Capwall™Construction
Combining the precision of sidewall underfoot, and the lightweight, durable performance of cap construction in the tip and tail, Capwall™ Construction provides the best of both worlds.
Fatty™ Base
1.7mm – 30% thicker base dramatically increases durability and tuning life the skis.
Fatty™ Edge
2.5mm x 2.2mm – 30% thicker edge dramatically increases durability and tuning life of these skis.
