custom fit toolDon’t be fooled by the width, tip this ski up on edge in soft corduroy and it will rail smooth, round GS turns. Low swing-weight gives the ski a lively, playful feel in loose snow.
The Heron makes a great travel ski and an excellent soft snow ride for the best days out East.

camber profile
Camber describes the bottom profile of the ski and is a significant design factor.
reverse camber
Reverse camber (or "rocker") is when the tips and tails do not contact the snow when the ski lays flat. Reverse camber makes the ski more playful and easier to pivot off trail, without sacrificing much edge grip.
flex
To help provide the best fit possible Parlor makes each ski in three flexes: soft, medium and stiff. Flex is determined through height/weight and skier style. The right flex allows a skier to access all of the contact points and performance of the ski: so the skier controls the ski and not the other way around. Medium is the default choice and appropriate for most riders.
lay-up options
The laminates are the main structural component of our skis. All of our custom graphic skis come with the option of a frontside or backcountry lay up.
Frontside:
Built with three layers of Vectorply triaxial fiberglass, this lay up prioritizes dampness and stability while still maintaining a low swing weight.
Backcountry:
Built with two layers of Vectorply triaxial fiberglass and two layers of carbon fiber skrim, this lay up is lighter in weight for those who like to spend some time going up hill. The carbon also gives the ski a bit of added pop.
