With the help of the DPS Carbon Pagoda Tour CFL 100 Ski, we can delicately navigate flat powder fields on high danger days or bag big lines when things solidify. These backcountry touring skis help us get deep into the backcountry with a lightweight paulownia core and a weight-conscious carbon flax laminate. Once we are on the descent, we trust the 100mm waist in various snow depths, the rocker in the tip when it's deeper, the camber underfoot when it's windbuffed, and the progressive shape no matter what.
