High-tech design plays a big role in ski building. We have created a system of strings and shock absorbers so skis can work aggressively, but at the same time to be predictable. This is accomplished by precise mathematical combinations of Carbon-fiber, Kevlar and Dyneema® fibers.
We use professional moulds,
as a guarantee that the exact calculated geometry we use in shapes has
always the intended result.
No changes in radius-es,
no unexpected deviations.
What is the main advantage of manufacture aside from personal supervision over each product?
We don't have to adapt to the market and produce mainstream, we can afford to experiment and discover new possibilities.
We don't need a year to adjust the prototypes, we can do this virtually with every product you release. This way the more skis we can make, the more perfected they become.
The shape of the skis has undergone a complicated development, where we tried to deviate from the current trends of skis with the high tapered tip and the wedge tail that falls under the snow. Easy to ride, but do not supply any support for the rider and the skis are unbalanced. We developed the skis with wider tail, but thanks to the stabilizing radius, they switch easily from carving into a gliding turn and vice versa. This allows absolute control over the speed and direction.
Speed is also provided by the racing base.
We have chosen the most classic, but at the same time the most difficult process because this way we can flexibly change the riding behavior of the skis.
The market will find many products that are painted, colorful, but often look erratic. Simplicity is beautiful, each element has its place and no curve is extra. Also, the cut into the veneer is there to reveal the structure of carbon fibers.
It is called wet lamination and it's a precise manual work. This is the system where the layers such as base, fibers, core and topsheet are layered at each other, and are successively recast with epoxy resin. Wood is an integral part of the ski. Since it is unpredictable, it requires the most testing, weighing up and the most time of preparation. Changes in the wood type or change in the thickness of tenths
of a millimeter can change every single attribute. Not for nothing it is called the core. Details make things unique.
When the skis are pressed, here comes the treatment of excessive material. Of course, as with any production, this also produces waste. It cannot be avoided but can be at least limited. Skis cannot be called organic products. Environmentally friendly and ecological can be the recycled parts from which they are made. Therefore,
we use Biobased recyclable ecological Epoxy for lamination – a versatile, low viscosity, liquid resin from R*Concept.
Skis development is difficult and time-consuming process. It demands great deal of testing. These are our 2. & 3. generation prototypes rides few years ago.
Skis are tested/tuned in Freeride terrain directly by their engineers & friends.
All our skis go straight from production to the newest Reichmann automatic ski service machine to be finished. This guarantees laser precise structures for your ski bases and exact edge sharpening and tuning. Skis are ready to ride right away.
