DPS 100RP Pagoda Skis 2022
Description
It was no small feat to improve upon the legendary Alchemist construction but here we are; the DPS 100 RP Pagoda Skis, new for 2022. Proudly made right here in the USA using their signature dual full sheets of carbon fiber, now paired with a blend of three different woods (Ash, Paulownia, and Aspen) to provide outstanding damping, impeccable vibration absorption, and smooth progressive flex for unrivaled versatility. The 100 RP Pagoda is grippy on the groomers, lively in the glades, and light enough for the long days in the backcountry. With an alpine touring binding, skip the snow report and pick your destination blindly, the 100 RP Pagoda will make the absolute best of whatever snow you find.
This ski is the result of passionate and visionary skiers, innovating with reckless abandon, and is a worthy successor to one of the best skis the world has seen.
Details
Full Carbon Laminates: Two full sheets of pre-preg Carbon fiber add the least possible weight and imbue the ski with unmatched torsional rigidity and vibration absorption.
Pagoda Woodcore: Blend of Aspen and Paulownia wood running the length of the ski are light weight and energetic; paired with an ash layer that thins towards the tip and tail which adds dampness usually reserved for much heavier skis.
RP Shape: Long rockered tip with short camber underfoot and optimal shovel taper create the best combination of fresh snow floatation and effective edge imaginable.
One-Piece Full Wrap Sidewall: Adds immense edge hold no matter the condition.
Rockwell 48 Steel Edges: Toughest edges in the ski industry
World Cup Race Base: The same Ptex bases used by world cup racers are used the Pagoda construction; only the best could do this ski justice.
