What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: "I've been using the Optic 88 Skis on early-morning groomer missions and they absolutely rail. The Gas Pedal Metal Overdrive gives insane edge grip without making the ski feel dead, and the 5CUT™ sidecut lets me vary turn shapes on the fly. It’s my go-to when I want something that can crush cord and still feel snappy if things get bumped out." We crave those first-chair days—corduroy stretched out in perfect lines, just waiting to be carved. The Line Optic 88 Skis are our sharpest tool for the job, built to rail groomers, pop through chopped-up snow, and keep pace when the mountain gets busy. They’re the narrowest in the Optic family, making them lightning-fast edge to edge and a dream for high-speed carving on firm snow. Underfoot, Line uses its Gas Pedal Metal Overdrive™ to bring stability and serious bite without making the ski sluggish. The 5CUT™ Multi-Radius Sidecut lets us transition from big GS arcs to tighter slalom zips depending on what the terrain throws at us. A directional flex pattern, early rise profile, and ultra-durable FATTY BASE & EDGE™ construction keep these skis powerful yet playful, and ready to go lap after lap.
