When the skin track is looking steep and the powder is looking deep we are happy to have the DPS Pagoda Tour 106 C2 Ski on our feet. This ski uses the popular C2 shape which provides float, stability, and maneuverability in powder and pairs it with a lighter Pagoda Tour construction. This lighter construction consists of full "pre-preg" carbon fiber laminates that are pre-injected with resin to eliminate any extra ounces and a foam, ash, and paulownia core that provides binding retention, weight savings, and damping. The result is a backcountry ski that gets us uphill with fresh legs and downhill with a smile on our face.
