When and where should the LINE Pandora 106 be used?
LINE Skis are known for making skis that have a playful personality, so they wanted to make sure that this was visible in the Pandora series. The rocker profile of the tip and tail loosens the ski, allowing riders to throw them sideways into slashes in soft snow, and the snap of the flex with those carbon filaments lets the ski pop well off piles of snow and natural features found off-piste in freeride skiing.
How will some of the key features of the LINE Pandora 106 enhance my experience?
Constructed with a 100% Aspen wood core and fibreglass reinforcement wrapped in their Capwall construction, this produces a ski that's surprisingly lightweight, easy to turn with excellent edge hold across all snow conditions because the sidewall builds over the edge of the ski.
This also contributes to the flex of the ski, which is all about versatility. underfoot and through most of the tail, the ski feels strong and supportive, able to remain stable at high speeds and offer a powerful exit to turns. Further, towards the tip of the ski, the flex softens and allows skiers to really drive the ski into fast-paced, agile turn shapes. Helped by the use of LINE's 5Cut technology, which blends five different sidecut shapes into one, this allows for a broad and dynamic range of turn shapes that can cater to a variety of skiing styles and turn shapes, perfect for switching up between on-piste carving and smearing turns in powder.
The shape of the ski tip is a big influence on the performance of the ski in soft snow. A tapered shape pushes the widest point of the ski back towards the binding, minimising the drag and the hooky effect that deeper snow can have and working with the rocker profile to provide float, resulting in a smooth surfing turn ability. Additionally, the tapered area of the ski features Thintip, where the wood core is milled extra thin to lower swing weight and ease up handling.
Why choose the LINE Pandora 106?
With a 106mm waist, it's wide enough to offer big mountain performance, offering maximum floatation on the deeper days, yet it's still comfortable getting on the edge and carving down groomers and around moguls in firmer conditions.
