With its poppy, agile nature the Explo 96 is a standout choice for backcountry enthusiasts. This versatile ski excels in a variety of terrains, from packed snow to powder, delivering optimal grip and stability. The Explo 96 incorporates "3P camber," featuring additional camber sections both in front of and behind the binding area. This design results in a significantly robust edge grip on hard-packed snow. The ski's tip and tail rocker, along with a mount point that isn't excessively rearward and a dynamic flex pattern, collectively contribute to making this ski playful and maneuverable when skiing off-piste. Its moderately light construction is a practical choice for those who prioritize a lighter setup while ascending slopes. This ski maintains stability and power, ensuring a confident and controlled descent.
