Equipped with an updated 3D Radius Sidecut featuring a shortened underfoot radius, the Mantra 88 smoothly transitions between tight, nimble turns and wide, sweeping carves, giving intermediate to expert skiers complete confidence anywhere on the mountain. Best Use: All-Mountain, Freeride, Groomers, Mixed Snow, Moguls Ability Level: Intermediate to Expert Flex: Stiff / Responsive Profile: Tip & Tail Rocker Shape: Directional Dimensions: 134 - 88 - 114 mm Turning Radius: 3D Radius Sidecut (23.5 m / 13.2 m / 21.3 m at 163 cm) Core: Hybrid Multilayer Woodcore (Beech and Poplar) Sidewalls: Full Sidewall Base: Sintered P-Tex 2100 3D Radius Sidecut: Integrates three distinct sidecut radii along the edge, utilizing a tighter center radius for nimble short turns alongside longer tip and tail radii for high-speed stability during wide carves. Tailored Carbon Tips: Carbon fibers are custom-positioned across the tip to deliver direct, precise steering input and lively responsiveness while shedding extra swing weight. Tailored Titanal Frame: Titanal reinforcement is strategically layered over the core and customized per ski length to optimize dampening, structural stiffness, and power transmission where it is needed most. Hybrid Multilayer Woodcore: Blends dense beech wood underfoot for solid binding retention with lightweight poplar throughout the tip and tail to deliver a balanced combination of snap, power, and agility. Full Sidewall Construction: Extends along the full length of the ski to ensure direct power transfer, superior edge hold, and chatter-free control on firm snowpack. Sintered P-Tex 2100 Base: High-density sintered base material engineered to absorb wax deeply for high speeds, exceptional glide, and long-term durability.
