What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "I grabbed these the morning after a big storm and the width alone kept me riding on top of snow that would have buried a narrower ski. The swallowtail let the tail sink just enough to keep the nose up without ever feeling like I was fighting the ski."Storm days demand a ski built specifically for deep snow, and the Line Pescado Ski was designed with nothing else in mind. We drop into fresh powder the morning after a big dump, and the superfat platform keeps us floating high in the snow instead of sinking through it, while the outrageous swallowtail lets the tail settle just enough to keep the nose riding up naturally. A Paulownia core keeps the ski light despite its size, and a directional flex lets the soft tip initiate turns easily while a stiffer tail holds power through deep, heavy snow. Early Rise tip and tail lift the contact points closer to center, boosting float even further, while a five cut sidecut blends multiple turn radiuses into one ski for a surprisingly intuitive feel given how dedicated this shape is to powder alone.
