SIA Show 09 (Ski Press)-More from the SnowPress Innovation Awards from the SnowSports Industries America Show, this time for Line’s Afterbang ski in the Skill category. This is the place where game improvement technology gets its due for helping you ski faster, longer and, yes, better all the time.
According to SnowPress Ski Editor Doug Schnitzspahn, “Line brought the most innovative ski to the show in the Afterbang. This is an urban ski, built in wood layers like a skateboard deck. The first layer is full length; each subsequent layer gets shorter, giving the ski added flex. That construction also gives the ski the guts and durability to survive slamming into metal rails and concrete – just like a skateboard does day after day. Even better, that construction means the Line wastes 60 percent less wood than a standard ski.” |
