The flexy freestyle jib stick Inspired by Will Wesson&';s ability to imagine new possibilities on his skis, the Blend maintains a similar dna to it&';s predecessors but served up in a purpose-built, improved package. Complete with 98mm waist width and leaning heavier into the freestyle space, the Blend has fully come to grips with what it has become over the seasons. A flexy freestyle jib stick that makes pressing and buttering second nature with reinforcements designed to handle the harshest elements of the streets.

Thick-Cut Sidewall: We&';ve extended the amount of sidewall that stretches into the core of the ski while adding more material over the steel edges to increase the total bonding surface area. This creates sidewalls more resilient to hard edge impacts, like sliding rails. Thin Tip(TM): We&';ve extended the ski core to run through the tips and tails while creating a glass-on-glass bonding area in both the tip and the tail. This gives even compaction over the tip / tail of the ski and encapsulates anything that could delaminate in a large glass-on-glass bonding region, meaning that while delaminations can always happen, this will keep the delamination from propagating to the core of the ski and limit it to edge chipping. 5CUT(TM) Multi-Radius Sidecut: FIVE different radiuses are blended into the ski&';s sidecut. The result? A wide variety of turn shapes and an intuitive feel. SYMMETRIC FLEX: The same flex pattern in front and behind your boot conforms to terrain equally riding forward & backwards. FATTY BASE & EDGE(TM): 30% thicker base & edge, 2mm wide x 2.5mm high steel edges and 1.7mm thick base dramatically increase durability and tuning life the skis. SIDEWALL CONSTRUCTION: Ultra-High Density Polyethylene vertical walls over the edges absorb vibrations and provide powerful energy transmission. EARLY RISE: The tip and tail lift away from the snow to bring the contact points closer to the center of the ski. This increases a ski&';s lift in deep snow and allows it to engage more quickly on hardpack when rolled over on edge. Size Chart How do you pick the correct ski size?There isn&';t a perfect size for one&';s height and/or weight. The general rule is to pick a ski that is going to land somewhere between your chin and the top of your head. Pro and expert skiers may choose skis that are slightly taller than their height allowing for more speed and aggressive skiing, while beginners and intermediate skiers may choose a ski that is shorter (closer to the height of your chin) for a more manueverable feeling ski.
