Description

The most capable touring skis that DPS has ever designed, the DPS Pagoda Tour 106 C2 skis boast C2 shaping and a longer turn radius to improve their ability to attack the fall line in steep terrain.

Datos clave

• Designed for advanced and expert skiers who value a ski-to-snow connection and directional turning style
• Updated construction makes the skis even lighter
• C2 shaping provides a directional profile with a longer effective edge than the RP shaping profile and features a 19 m turn radius perfect for arced fall line turns
• Features moderate tip and tail rocker (that generates exceptional float in powder, added stability in variable snow and superb edge hold on-piste)
• This shaping combination allows the ski to move quickly and confidently in firm or mixed conditions and still excel in soft snow
• 106 mm waists in the C2 shape are optimal for skiing wind-hammered snow up top, powder in the trees and variable conditions down low
• Waists provide an efficient surface area for skinning all day
• 2 full layers of proprietary carbon laminate increase energy of the skis compared to traditional fiberglass or metal laminates
• Carbon laminate also provides superior strength-to-weight ratio and allows the skis to retain their flex infinitely, resulting in skis that will last multiple seasons
• New Third Rail Technology utilizes a third sidewall of algae-based sidewall material down the center of the ski's core
• Third sidewall creates exceptional damping properties and torsional rigidity that rivals the on-snow feel of alpine skis while maintaining the light weight of touring skis
• Algal Sidewall Technology features 63% bio content sourced from a microalgae, in comparison to standard sidewalls which are plastics derived entirely from fossil fuels
• Raised binding reinforcement plates give the skis excellent binding screw retention as well as added underfoot vibration damping
• Textured polyamide tops are durable and reduce chipping, so they look better and last longer
• Ash/aspen/paulownia wood cores mix 3 wood densities to provide damp but relatively lightweight skis
• Rockwell 48 steel edges are thick and durable, so they resist impact damage and hold a tune longer
• Base material is the same high quality that's used on World Cup race skis; it's extremely long-lasting and remains faster longer
• Gender-neutral engineering; each ski length is specifically designed to perform for the height/weight of each skier, regardless of their gender
• Additive construction means less manufacturing waste; skis are shipped using compostable bags, keeping sustainability as a primary focus for DPS
• Designed for 80% backcountry/20% resort skiing
