The Blade Optic 92 is the only ski in the Blade Optic Collection that does not harness the power of metal throughout the ski, but don't let that deter you, this award winning ski rips. With the absence of metal, the Blade Optic 92 is more lightweight, nimble, and quicker edge to edge as compared to its counterparts.
5CUT™ MULTI-RADIUS SIDECUT:
5 cut
FIVE different radiuses are blended into the ski’s sidecut. The result? A wide variety of turn shapes and an intuitive feel.
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:
