"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""This ski is everything I want in a hardpack-focused charger. The metal underfoot gives me total confidence on edge, and it doesn’t buck me around in variable snow. It’s nimble when I need it, powerful when I push it, and just plain fun at speed.""For those of us who lean into turns with purpose and love to ski fast, the Optic 96 Ski is the ideal tool. With its versatile 96mm waist and freeride shape, it delivers precision and performance on groomers, through tracked snow, and even in occasional soft stashes off the side. Whether we’re carving laps on windbuff or weaving through trees, the Optic 96 provides a powerful yet surprisingly agile platform. Under the hood, this ski packs LINE’s Gas Pedal Metal Overdrive—Titanal plates shaped to drive power where it counts without compromising maneuverability. An aspen wood core keeps the ski light and responsive, while the Titanal adds dampness and stability for high-speed confidence. With a 19m turn radius and a flex profile that grips and releases with ease, the Optic 96 is built to rail corduroy and power through the cut-up."
