CARVING
There is nothing like the feel of a ski making a deep clean arc in the snow. These custom skis are designed to carve and hold on ice. We can make them turn more quickly or hold a longer radius based on your skiing preferences. With a narrower waist under foot, and inspiration coming from years of racing. You can be assured that this will be the most stable and responsive ski in your quiver.
Every ski we build is designed for the client. During the fitting we will help you decide which style of ski is correct for you, and then build your specs based on a conversation about your skiing style, physique, and terrain choice.
Here is a description of the specification range for carving skis:
These skis are built with a focus on quick turning and stability, we customize not only for style and ability but also for your favorite snow conditions. Having a pair of carving skis tuned just for you will make every groomer, or "firm" run look like a playground.

COMPARISON
Carving vs. All Mountain: A carving ski favors skiers that like a narrower ski who tend to stick to the groomers; an all mountain ski gives more flexibility to move to the side of the trail, or deal with groomers with loose snow or small moguls.
