What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"I took the Ubac 95 on a few long tours, and what stood out was how light it felt on the skin track while still being reliable on the descent. It’s playful enough for hop turns in tight couloirs, but also strong enough to carve when you bring it back to the resort. It’s the kind of ski I trust for big days when I want one setup to do it all."Who It’s ForIntermediate to Expert Backcountry Skiers:The Ubac 95 is made for those who split their time between human-powered days and resort laps. It’s ideal for skiers who prioritize a lightweight touring setup but don’t want to sacrifice downhill stability—perfect for progressing backcountry riders and seasoned experts alike. What It’s ForBackcountry Touring with All-Mountain Agility:With a 95mm waist and rocker/camber/rocker profile, the Ubac 95 thrives in mixed alpine terrain. It’s light for long approaches and skin tracks, nimble for steep couloirs and trees, and capable of holding an edge on firm snow or carving when brought back to the resort. Why We Like ItLightweight Construction Meets Reliable Performance:We like that the Ubac 95 feels trustworthy in almost any condition. The paulownia wood core keeps weight impressively low, while carbon and multiaxial fiberglass laminates add stability without bulk. Rockered tips and tails help it float when the snow softens, and the sintered base ensures efficiency on long, flat exits.
