The LINE Sakana, known for its accolades and attention-grabbing design, stands out as a one-of-a-kind all-mountain ski. Its distinctive swallowtail shape, combined with camber along most of its length, grants the Sakana the ability to carve precise turns on hard snow. Furthermore, thanks to its early rise tip, rear-mounted stance, and wide shovel, these skis excel at effortlessly navigating through deep powder. This ski is not only a master of floating on fresh snow but also carves with a precision that rivals your dad's carving skills during Thanksgiving dinner. Experience the transformative Sakana for yourself.
5CUT™ MULTI-RADIUS SIDECUT:
The 5CUT™ system combines five different radii within the ski's sidecut, resulting in a wide range of turn shapes and an intuitive skiing experience.
SWALLOWTAIL:
The Swallowtail design features a distinctive tail cutout that decouples the farthest part of the effective edge while also guiding the ski's tail down in soft snow. This allows the ski to perform effectively at shorter lengths without sacrificing performance. Beyond its eye-catching appearance, Eric Pollard championed this design due to its advantages drawn from surfing and snowboard concepts. The absence of material in the tail significantly reduces weight while maintaining a long effective edge for smooth turns and control. In powder conditions, the tail sinks, elevating the tips for excellent flotation and maintaining a neutral skiing posture, ensuring you're not struggling to stay balanced. Worried about durability? Rest assured, the tail is reinforced with titanal for added strength.
CARBON FLAX TAPE:
Carbon stringers combined with Flax Taping create additional stiffness without the undesirable characteristics often associated with carbon, such as excessive stiffness and deflection.
SIDEWALL CONSTRUCTION:
The Sidewall construction features ultra-high-density polyethylene vertical walls over the edges, effectively absorbing vibrations and delivering powerful energy transmission.
EARLY RISE:
Early Rise technology lifts the tip and tail away from the snow, bringing the contact points closer to the ski's center. This design increases lift in deep snow and enhances quick engagement on hardpack when the ski is rolled onto its edge.
DIRECTIONAL FLEX:
With a directional flex pattern, the softer tip initiates turns with ease, while the stiffer tail provides power, stability, and high-speed control.
