What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"This ski is built for dream powder days. The 122mm waist floats effortlessly, but the carbon weave and elliptical sidecut make it surprisingly agile for its size. It's stable enough to stomp big lines but still playful for buttering and slashing."When the mountain is blanketed in fresh snow, the Studio 4 is our ticket to pure, playful performance. Its 122mm waist offers effortless flotation in deep powder, while a lightweight poplar wood core keeps it nimble for quick adjustments in tight trees or technical terrain.

The elliptical sidecut allows for smooth turn initiation and adaptability, making it easy to switch between big-mountain arcs and freestyle creativity. For those chasing powder perfection, the Studio 4 delivers that dreamlike ride with a twin-tip flair.
