STEAMBOAT, COLORADO, U.S.A.

Seven thousand feet up in the Colorado Rockies, nestled quietly below one of the largest resort mountains in North America, sits a vibrant community that serves as a constant reminder that the Old West is alive and well.

Whether you’re stepping into a one of our 100 bars and restaurants, one of the charming boutiques, or stepping off the gondola, the reception is the same; genuine and warm. With 165 trails, 3,668 vertical feet, and nearly 3,000 acres of terrain, Steamboat’s six peaks are filled with groomed cruisers, bumps, steeps, legendary trees, five terrain parks and state-ofthe-art night skiing.

Our obsession with skiing is something we like to share. Known around the globe for the deep, untouched powder that collects between the tall aspen and evergreens; it’s so different that the phrase Champagne Powder® snow was coined right here to describe it. With nearly 10 metres of the deep stuff last year, Steamboat never has to worry about fresh powder.

After a day on the mountain, take a dip in the Hot Springs and you’ll think you’ve found the fountain of youth. Enjoy a stroll down Lincoln Avenue where you’ll feel the essence of Steamboat’s down-home western hospitality. Steamboat also boasts a variety of lodging options, as well as a variety of off-slope activities.

To get a face-full of Champagne Powder snow, a boatload of western hospitality and fantastic holiday packages, visit steamboat.com or call UK toll-free, 0808-101-3798. Better yet, pick up a Steamboat info pack at your nearest Ellis Brigham shop.

Ellis Brigham would like to thank our fantastic hosts for their funding and organisation of our catalogue photoshoot in Steamboat, Colorado, U.S.A. at the end of March 2014.

This was our thirteenth year in Steamboat and every time we return it’s just like going home. Snow conditions continue to be epic and the hospitality ever warmer... we can honestly say that there is no finer place to take a snowsports holiday.

Special thanks go out to Mike Lane, Jenny O’Farrell, Katie Brown & Rob Perlman who made the whole thing possible.

SKI CLOTHING Our new collection of performance skiwear is the end-result of a lot of miles travelled to view ranges, a lot of hours spent working with designers and a lot of days spent putting our selections through their paces in a variety of demanding high mountain weather conditions. We split our collection into five categories, each answering the performance and sartorial aspirations of the greater ski family.

Backcountry: Using cutting-edge garment construction and the pinnacle in durable waterproof and breathable fabrics, this clothing thrives in savage wind-scoured high altitude terrain and frigid bottomless snow back bowls. A predominantly GORE-TEX shell clothing category using the best mountaineering garments as a starting point then adding skier-specific features to deliver a lean and mean package with uncompromising performance.

Freestyle: Fashion-forward snowsports clothing for the freerider having fun all over the mountain, from the terrain park to backcountry hit sessions. Two looks stand out: bright high contrast colour blocking or retro outdoor styled utility wear.

BC Inspired: Mirroring the developing direction in snowsports hardware, easyaccess backcountry is also inspiring snowsports clothing trends. This is performance outerwear aimed at adventurous resort skiers seeking out lift-served off piste and easy access hike-to-ride terrain.

Prestige: This look is wealthy, fast and streamlined. Technical stretch waterproof and very breathable fabrics are expertly cut with a form-flattering fit. Women’s jackets are sleek and slimming, men’s jackets are broad shouldered with sharp engineered styling.

Alpine: Classic skiwear delivering high-end all weather protection and all day comfort. A great fit and easy-to-wear styling makes this category appeal to a broad base of skiers across all ages.

MEN’S CLOTHING

Norrøna’s relationship with wild places started as far back as 1929 when Jørgen Jørgensen began making canvas backpacks for use in the harsh Norwegian outdoors. Still family owned four generations later, Norrøna continues to draw inspiration from Norway’s majestic landscapes and nature’s silent beauty influences the soul and form of their mountain clothing. Norrøna are now established as the reference backcountry skiwear brand and the influence and momentum that this small company has built over the last four winters is amazing to behold.

This increases circulation and delivers more oxygen to active muscles so you can train harder, perform better and recover more quickly. That’s great news for the recreational skier! What’s more, SKINS can keep you cool when it’s warm and warm when it’s cool thanks to wicking fibres which draw sweat away from the body.

WARMING TECHNOLOGY

HAND WARMING TECHNOLOGY In order to perceive differences in temperature, there are several hundred thousand cold and warmth receptors located in the human skin. However, the number of cold receptors clearly exceeds the number of heat receptors. For example, there are 15 times more cold receptors on the back of the hand. This explains why the extremities are particularly sensitive to cold: fingers freeze easily and, as a result, every move hurts. Our Therm-ic hand warming systems know exactly how to protect you against stiff, frozen fingers.

Thanks to their smart interior, Therm-ic PowerGloves release heat from the fingertips and provide your hands with constant warmth for up to 10 hours even in the worst cold. The mobility of your fingers is not limited and your grip remains firm.

• Top quality materials including leather and Primaloft insulation technology • Ultra-light and imperceptible lithium-ion batteries providing warmth for up to 10 hours • Impulse Control stimulating blood circulation in fingers • Breathable and waterproof Dryzone membrane • Waterproof zippers, drawstring closure, flexible wristband • Windshield wipers with soft surface for ski goggles

Used by athletes at Sochi 2014, Oakley’s Prizm goggle lens technology is released to the public for the first time this season.

Tackling the specific issue of snowsports where an all-white environment makes contrast and depth perception surprisingly difficult, a Prizm lens fine-tunes the light to emphasise colours where the eye is most sensitive to detail. The result is maximum contrast and enhanced visibility of detail and contours, meaning safer riding and more confidence.

SKIER ESSENTIALS

HELMETS

Snowsports helmets have featured heavily in the media this past winter and debate rages about mandatory usage. We’re not about to tell you that you must wear a helmet, but we do have a range which will make that decision much easier.

We have something for everyone, from freeriders to park rats, price conscious first-timers to glamour queens. There are different fits, colours and sizes from extra-small right the way to double extra-large. Each one has its European safety ticket and they’ve all been through a rigorous vetting procedure. And with the latest constructions and design helmets are getting safer, lighter, more comfortable and better ventilated than ever before. Adult prices start at £55 so if you’re thinking of using one, don’t bother renting – there’s no guarantee they’ll be available, the shape may be wrong for you and do you really want to use a helmet that’s been on so many other sweaty heads and bashed around so much?

Helmets may not be the answer for everybody or provide unlimited protection, but they can make a difference and for that reason we encourage their use. They’re not just for experts or beginners – anyone who wants to maximise their safety on the hill should consider one. Come into one of our stores, talk through the options with our staff and try some on, you might just be surprised how light, comfortable and affordable they are.

Construction

Sizing

There are 2 main types of construction in snowsports helmets that meet CEN1077 (European safety standard) and ASTM2040 (American safety standard), these are in-mould and hard shell (also referred to as injection moulding). Variations exist on these such as Sweet Protection’s inclusion of carbon fibre.

Since last year Giro have added a 3rd type by introducing the Soft Shell.

Every brand has their own interpretation of what size head should fit into a standard sized helmet (medium, large etc), so when working out what size to get, ignore the word (medium, large etc) and look at the actual figures in cm. Apart from the sizing, each company will have slightly different fits from one another, so it is worth trying a few different makes to see which suits your head best.

In-mould Construction

As well as using standard sizes, some manufacturers choose to add levels of customisation and adjustability to individual models for even better comfort and fit.

In-mould helmets tend to be lighter and cooler than traditional versions.

To see how each brand measures up please refer to the table on the page 147. To check your own The system fuses a tough polycarbonate outer shell with the helmet’s impact-absorbing EPS foam liner, head size, measure in cm’s around the circumference of your head, just above the eyebrows. for good durability without excess weight. This combination of shell and liner results in a better ventilation system.

Venting

Hard Shell

Modern helmets are comfortable to wear, due to improvements in fit and construction, as well as ventilation.

Takes place when a durable ABS shell and a lightweight EPS liner are bonded together. This type of helmet The amount and type of ventilation in a helmet might affect which one you choose. More vents will normally tends to have less vents, but they’re great value and very hard-wearing. equal more powerful cooling if your head warms up, but you should also consider whether the vents are Soft Shell open, pluggable or if there is rider controlled venting that can be adjusted while on-the-move so you don’t Soft Shell construction combines a patent-pending, impact-absorbing liner made with Vinyl Nitrate have to take the helmet off. and a unique flexible outer shell material for a durable and comfortable fit.

MIPS

Trying On

Not a construction as such but an extra safety that can be built in. MIPS was developed by brain surgeons and scientists to reduce rotational forces on the brain caused by angled impacts to the head.

In a MIPS helmet the shell and the liner are separated by a low friction layer. When the helmet is subjected to an angled impact, the low friction layer allows the helmet to slide relative to the head, absorbing much of the energy.

When you try a helmet on it should fit firmly and snugly on your head, align the front of the helmet above your eyebrows and tighten the chin strap. Make sure there are no unwanted gaps between the helmet lining and your head. In addition, check that the back of the helmet does not press the back of your neck.

The helmet should fit snugly, when shaking your head it should not move around. It may be worth trying the helmet with one of your favourite pairs of goggles to be certain they fit well together.

Anon Aera £80 The women’s Aera uses a low-profile design with the excellent rider controlled Airvanced venting. The hard shell construction ensures it’s tough; removable ear pads make spring park riding more comfortable.

SKI HARDWARE

SKI HARDWARE The last decade has seen some big changes in ski equipment and this winter it feels like everything is coming together beautifully.

Innovations really have a purpose and new technology has been honed and improved for the best possible results.

Ski shapes are now tuned perfectly for the desired results and skiers can choose their ride to be as terrain-specific or universal as they want. We’ve skis with electrifying grip and power for hard snow like the Nordica Dobermanns, wide options such as the Armada JJ with unbelievable float and stability no matter how deep it gets, and, of course, plenty of all-rounders in a variety of shapes, sizes and constructions for all abilities. Our range is wide and diverse, consisting of only this season’s best models and showcasing something for everyone. As always we have a big choice of women’s specific models covering all skier types, epitomised by the selection from Volkl, and we’ve also plenty of interesting innovative products from brands like DPS. As well as awarding prizes for Testers’ Favourite skis, for the first time this winter we are announcing overall winners for men and women. This year the men’s award goes to the excellent Nordica NRGY 90, a new ski that is set make many all-mountain skiers exceptionally happy. The women’s award goes to a returning ski, the Blizzard Black Pearl, a model that consistently delights and surprises skiers of various abilities and types.

It’s going to be a huge year with boots too, as skiers really start to wake up to the

possibilities of in-store customisation. Brands like Salomon, Atomic and Fischer now have the majority of their models in plastics that can be moulded at the time of purchase - improving the shape, comfort and performance. All done in the time it takes to fit a regular boot. Put options like these in the hands of expert fitters and the results are very impressive.

Backcountry, free-mountain and tour categories continue to grow, brands are putting ever more research into new products and more skiers are realising the potential that lies beyond the lifts and pistes. Skis are getting lighter and it’s the younger, smaller companies driving this, using carbon with amazing results. Check out the DPS skis on page 196 and the Whitedot, Black Diamond and Dynafit offerings in the dedicated BC section starting on page 217. Boots and bindings continue to evolve, gaining new functions, strength and often saving weight. Of course, moving away from the lifts presents its own dangers and we’d encourage all off-piste skiers to understand the risks, take the correct training and carry the right equipment.

We are a company of enthusiasts, owned and staffed by people who love the mountains, and this is always true of the ski departments. Enthusiasm and experience are great, and we build on this with the UK’s most comprehensive ski and boot retail training schemes. So, come in and say hi, see the latest kit, get it in your hands and understand it better; have a chat with fellow skiers who enjoy the sport like you and are just as excited to get back on snow.

WE KNOW FEET Ellis Brigham have been involved with feet and fitting footwear since the company started over 80 years ago. Originally as a mountain boot and cycle shoe specialist, but in recent decades this has included all kinds of mountain sports and skiing in particular.

Over the years this knowledge and experience has grown as new trends arrive and products change. All the original enthusiasm remains and today this gives us a team of keen, expert boot-fitters who are well-regarded in the industry and constantly learning and adapting.

Leather boots are long gone and ski boots now are a high-tech mix of plastics and foams, sculpted to follow the shape of a foot and capable of being moulded to each skier, from

SKI BOOTS

the sole to the inner boot and even the plastic shell. It means that with brands like Salomon, Fischer and Atomic our boot-technicians can take fitting to the next level. These boots are heated and moulded in the shop so that the unique shape of every individual is accounted for: pressure is evened out, comfort is maximised and control is improved.

All this technology is useless if the right product is not chosen. That’s why our boot fitters employ proven processes and receive in-depth training under the SUREfit system. Our experts follow simple tried-and-tested rules but are also armed with a wide selection of fitting-aids and the knowledge to deal with more complicated problems. This way we are confident that you will buy a product that will last many weeks of skiing and offer the right combination of comfort and performance.

We know feet and we know how to make them comfortable.

ELLIS BRIGHAM SUREFIT GUARANTEE

SUREfit is both a way of fitting boots and a system of training. It’s a process that looks at a skier’s history, individual foot shape and biomechanics, taking into account previous injuries and medical problems, with checks and measures to help make the right choice. It also provides Ellis Brigham staff with the skills and knowledge to ensure comfortable feet and the ideal boots.

All the staff in our ski departments are passionate about wintersports. Their enthusiasm for what they are doing will make your time in the shop more enjoyable and ensure you leave with the correct product. This interest in skiing is not enough on its own though.

That’s why Ellis Brigham provide the most comprehensive ski hardware training programme in the UK. This involves seminars, coursework, practicals, and one-to-one coaching; focusing on all aspects of boot fitting. Topics covered range from basic anatomy to nerve pathways and cutting edge techniques. Different levels produce constant progression and continued development of skills. As a result, we have a team of committed and knowledgeable staff. They will ensure that the service and care you receive, in any Ellis Brigham store, is of the highest quality.

As we recognise that every foot is unique, we also recognise the need for unique ski boots. To achieve this, we provide free labour for customisation; whether it’s the day you buy the boots, after you have skied them the first time, or 3 years down the line. This free service includes stretching, grinding and modifications such as softening or stiffening.

We want you to be happy with your ski boots so we will always try to remedy any problems you may encounter. Very often this will be resolved by a simple stretch or grind to the ski boot to slightly alter the shape; in all cases we will expect good quality ski socks and supportive footbeds to be used. If we are unable to supply a satisfactory fit, then, providing the ski boots have been worn for less than 2 weeks (wear and tear will be taken into account), correct socks and footbeds have been used, and there is a proof of purchase (to show the boots were bought from Ellis Brigham in the preceding 18 months), we will issue a credit note for 70% of the value paid. This guarantee is offered in addition to your statutory rights, and it is dependent on our advice being accepted during fitting. For further information, terms and conditions contact customer.services@ellis-brigham.com.

SKI HARDWARE

HOW TO PREVENT COMMON BOOT PROBLEMS Skiing and ski boots are unnatural for human physiology. We place our feet in a harsh environment and exert more stress through skiing, it’s no wonder feet hurt trying to adapt to this!

There are millions of variations in feet but a boot manufacturer has only 6 or 7 different shapes and volumes within their collection. Therefore we carry a large boot range to offer different shapes and volumes in order to find a match between the boot and foot. From this initial fit we need to ensure the foot is stable and supported in a neutral position – for this reason we strongly recommend supportive footbeds for every boot we sell. They make the difference between a boot that fits correctly, and a boot that doesn’t.

Boot-fitting problems generally stem from the foot itself, not the boot.

Footbeds eliminate a lot of these issues, dramatically improving the fit and skiing performance by supporting the foot structure. This helps muscles to relax and stops them tiring so quickly, meaning there’s less movement and rubbing caused by collapsing of the foot.

We recommend Sidas SUREfit custom footbeds. They provide the support and stability within the ski boot enabling your feet to adapt better to the alien environment in which they are placed.

SUREfit Custom Snow with Full Finish Stabiliser £67.50 (when bought with full-priced ski boots, £87.50 when bought on their own)

Exclusive to Ellis Brigham, this custom made footbed provides a medium level of stability and support that suits most skiers.

SUREfit Custom Snow with DD Block £77.50 (when bought with full-priced ski boots, £97.50 when bought on their own)

Exclusive to Ellis Brigham, this custom made footbed uses a double-density foam that is carefully ground and shaped to add stiffness. It provides a firm level of stability and support to suit heavier skiers, for those feet that need more control or anyone wanting extra precision.

SUREfit Custom Snow with Crist’Air Stabiliser £77.50 (when bought with full-priced ski boots, £97.50 when bought on their own)

Exclusive to Ellis Brigham, this custom made footbed uses hard foam that is carefully ground and shaped to add stiffness. It provides the firmest level of stability and support to suit skiers wanting the ultimate precision, or for feet that require the maximum levels of control.

When buying SUREfit custom footbeds with full-priced ski boots you save £20 on the normal price of the footbeds.

SKI BOOTS

USING THE ELLIS BRIGHAM SKI BOOT PAGES The following pages present a diverse range of ski boots with options for all types of skiers from novice, first-time buyers up to experts tackling anything the mountain has to offer. We have a selection that covers all kinds of fits and shapes and caters for different budgets. To help simplify the range, the boots are graded by performance and have key points identified.

PRODUCT INFORMATION 100

Boot Flex

PERFORMANCE INDICATOR This is a guide to show how the boot will perform and what to expect in terms of the overall fit. Shown as a progression from Leisure through Sport up to Performance.

98-104 Last Width

Leisure These models offer extra space, the inner boots use less dense foams and the shell has a higher content of softer plastic for increased comfort. Leisure boots are forgiving and not as precise as sport options.

Sport A great compromise between comfort and performance. The fit is close and their materials supply plenty of support, the liner is made of firmer foams to ensure an even, all-over pressure.

35mm Velcro Strap

Last width: This gives an indication of the space inside the boot and relates to the width in millimetres of the boot at its widest point, across the forefoot area. The stated width is for a size 26.5cm ski boot.

Velcro strap: They help to close the boot and keep the shin in contact with the tongue of the liner. Generally, the bigger the strap the better it is at retaining the leg. Therefore it takes more effort to use the boot, which will suit advanced skiers better.

Custom Fit

Custom Fit – Liner: All adult boots that Ellis Brigham stock use custommoulding foams. This means they can be heated in store to help the inner boot take the form of individual foot shapes.

Custom Fit

Custom Fit – Shell: Certain models can have the plastic shell heated and moulded as part of the fitting process. This creates a better match to foot shape and evens out the pressure for a more comfortable fit.

Performance Performance boots for experienced skiers have less volume and feel firmer. Control and precision are the most important elements, which means no extra room.

Boot Flex: This relates to how much effort it takes to bend (flex) the boot forward. Boots with high flex numbers are stiffer, meaning they are suited to skiers with all or some of these characteristics: fast and aggressive style, better skilled, heavier weight. They feel precise, driving skis extremely efficiently.

Softer flexing boots perform very well at slower and medium speeds, they make it easy to control skis, and are comfortable to use.

FIT An indication of the shape. The fit of the boot is crucial to make the boot work for you. This is just a guide, only a proper fitting provides the information needed to select the perfect boot.

FEATURES These are features we have highlighted to help distinguish between different ranges and models. Refer to the ‘feature’ boxes on listed pages for explanations.

HOW A NEW SKI BOOT SHOULD FEEL Ski boots feel tight and a bit short at first, don’t panic, this is normal. The innerboot is designed to fit in length and volume, initially with no excess space.

Fasten the buckles round the leg first, this will pull the foot back. A few ankle-flexes will push the heel further into the heel pocket, producing more toe room.

Keep the boots on for at least 15 minutes. During this time your body heat will soften the innerboot foam, compressing it a little and creating more volume around your foot. You’ll be aware of your toes just touching the end of the boot, and that it’s a close and snug fit – as if someone has hold of your feet with both hands.

There should be very little or no movement at the heel and ankle when replicating skiing movements.

Remember that ski boots will increase in volume by about 15% with use, so don’t upsize.

Don’t over-tighten the buckles; they are there to close the boot, not to hold your foot still.

If you have issues with the fit, or it just doesn’t feel right, try a different boot in the same size.

Remember that well-made custom-moulded footbeds will support and stabilise your feet in the correct alignment, dramatically improving the fit.

boot features Salomon 360º Custom Shell With this 3rd generation of Custom Shell, Salomon has really caught the attention of skiers and boot fitters. Put in the hands of a skilled boot-tech it’s a range that is easily customised to improve fit and performance. The key component is Kaprolene, a material developed especially for Salomon. It’s a plastic that can be heated, moulded and cooled in a short space of time without losing the characteristics expected in a high-quality ski boot (rebound/strength/power transfer).

Once a model and size has been selected, a simple 30 minute process is all that is needed to customise the boot to the skier’s foot. During the fitting procedure the plastic shell of the boot is heated and the Custom Shell areas soften considerably.

The foot is placed inside the shell with the inner boot and as the shell cools, it moulds to the shape inside. Once it is cooled it becomes hard, retaining the new customised profile. The result is a better fit with improved comfort and extra control.

Salomon Quest Max 130 £360

Fit: medium to low volume, good heel hold and roomy toe box, custom moulded foot shape The re-worked Quest Max 130 is for powerful freeride skiers who want maximum control and a hike function that doesn’t compromise power. With truly impressive in-store customisation options, getting this boot dialled for fit is very straight-forward. The shell is heated and moulded to match the foot shape, after which the liner is heated to fine-tune the fit. The result is comfort and a precise foothold. Backbone Release creates a solid spine for strong skiing and releases for more comfortable hiking.

This makes it the ideal choice for all-mountain skiers who want the convenience of a hike mode, either for touring/hiking in harder-to-reach areas or simply for relaxing the stance in lifts or around town. The plastic of the boot is moulded in-store to each skier’s feet, and the liner is heat fitted creating the best possible match to foot shape.

Salomon X Max 120 £360

Fit: medium to low volume, good heel hold and roomy toe box, custom moulded foot shape Performance boots often have to sacrifice some comfort to provide the skiing that experts seek. This is not the case with the X Max 120. The TwinFrame and Oversized Pivot combined with the 120 flex produces all the power and energy transmission required to attack steep terrain and explore off-piste. The customised fittings of the 360º Custom Shell and My Custom Fit liner provide the personalised shape and impressive comfort.

boot features Salomon X Pro 90 W £290

Oversized Pivots

My Custom Fit

Modern all-mountain skis are wider than the previous generations and require more torque to hold an edge – meaning boots need to be laterally stiffer. To make the most of this Salomon increase the size of the pivot points for the shell and cuff, better dispersing energy through the boot.

The result of Oversized Pivot for the skier is improved precision and boosted power transmission.

The job of a ski boot liner is to improve the fit and provide insulation. This is done with layers of foam that compress and shape to the skier’s feet with wear, as well as trap air. My Custom Fit liners all use thermo-formable foams, so that they can be personalised to each individual skier before they have even left the store. A simple heat process followed by a quick wear as the foam cools, shapes them and improves the feeling of comfort, precision and control.

TwinFrame

Fit: medium to high volume, generous toe space, custom moulded foot shape The X Pro 90 W was an instant success on its release last season and this popularity is sure to be repeated. By using a shell and a liner that are both heat moulded in-store, the shape of the X Pro 90 W can be personalised for each skier, resulting in more comfort for longer and therefore more time spent on snow. A better fit also means better control, so skills should improve and the skiing potential of the responsive construction is achieved.

boot features Atomic Hawx 2.0 120 £330

Memory Fit

Sole Flex

Memory Fit is the latest advancement in heat fitting technology for ski boots, a simple 12 minute process that personalises the fit. 3 elements of the boot adapt to the foot – shell, cuff and liner – memorising the entire foot shape. Expansion can be up to 6mm in total forefoot width and up to 10mm in the total ankle/navicular width. The result is a permanent and complete anatomical fit.

Conventional ski boots lock the natural foot movements in the sensitive forefoot region. Hawx boots free your forefoot by providing a more natural bend in the boot, allowing it to flex in your foot’s sweet spot while still retaining lateral and torsional stability. The result is better balance, more control and easier skiing.

Carbon Spine Live Fit Zones

Fit: medium all over, forgiving fit, average cuff, custom moulded foot shape Expert level skiers need responsive boots and firm flexes but they don’t always want racestyle fits. This is where the Hawx 2.0 120 shines as a high-performance boot with impressive comfort. A Memory Fit shell delivers precise energy transmission and can be moulded instore to the skier’s feet for the best possible shape from new; the Gold Liner with Dynashape ensures exact control and good warmth. A Sole Flex zone under the boot allows a slight bend and promotes balance and a natural stance which improves feedback from the ski and enhances snow sensations.

Custom Fit

Vacuum Fit technology uses a unique process and a specially developed high-tech plastic to adapt the shell of the ski boot to the anatomy of any foot. Prior to fitting the plastic of the boots are heated and softened.

With the liner inserted, the skier’s foot is placed inside. A special cooling pad is placed around the outside, followed by a compression bag linked to the Vacuum Fit station. The skier then stands on the station in a pre-determined position, this will ensure the boot cools down and shapes to the skier’s natural stance. Once in position, air is pumped into the compression bags, pushing them against the boot and improving the mould being taken of the foot.

The result is superior custom fitting, a boot with fully thermo-formable plastic in all areas, capable of altering +/- 5mm in width and from 14° to 17° in forward lean; it’s volume can not only be expanded but also reduced to create the best possible fit.

Apart from its extraordinary moulding properties VacuPlast also has other special features: it is very temperature stable, meaning it isn’t adversely affected on extreme cold days when certain plastics become very stiff; it is lighter than other materials used on performance ski boots, and it has better vibration dampening.

Soma-Tec In their natural, relaxed position, your feet form a V-shape. In this stance the knees remain parallel when flexed. Fischer took these anatomical facts into account when developing Soma-Tec. The feet remain relaxed in their natural V-position, so knee and ankle joints no longer have to be twisted inward and less strain is placed on the joints. At the same time, edge changes are made easier and energy is transmitted to the ski more accurately.

Fischer Fuse 7 Vacuum CF W £250

Fit: high volume, spacious midfoot, custom moulded As a choice for skiers who don’t want a slim fitting boot, the Fuse 7 Vacuum CF definitely deserves it place on the shelf. Many wider boots are high volume all over and struggle to control the foot. This boot differs because it uses Vacuum Comfort technology so it can be moulded in-store to the skier’s feet, and unlike some rivals it can actually be compressed if needed to help grip the ankle area. Comfort doesn’t stop there, Soma-Tec creates a natural stance and the walk mode makes getting around easier.

Lange RX 100 £270

Fit: medium volume, medium to narrow heel, comfy toebox Keeping it simple is the reason that the RX 100 has been such a success. A mono-injected PU shell provides power and precision. A close fitting rearfoot, 100mm forefoot and roomy toe box means there’s exceptional foothold without the crushing pressure often associated with performance boots. The 100 flex is firm without being tiring, the liner is custom moulded for the best fit and there’s plenty of adjustment on the cuff to suit various leg shapes.

This makes it a go-to boot for skiers with slim feet. The mono-injected PU shell is firm for power and precision. The 100 flex cleanly drives skis without being difficult to use; a Thermo liner is custom moulded for improved fit. It’s also a great choice for less experienced skiers searching for a lower volume boot as adjustable bolts in the rear can reduce the flex, making it easier to use.

SKI BOOTS

boot features Natural Stance

Control Fit Technology – Liner

All Lange ski boots are built with the most efficient, neutral and modern upright stance, derived from their Race Department experience. This Natural Stance compliments current shaped and rockered ski design by providing more efficient power transfer, resulting in less quad fatigue and better, longer ski days.

True Lasted – liners are a perfect fit in the shells.

Instep Pocket – a cut-out section reduces instep pressure.

One Piece Toebox – continuous material from toe to shin provides greater comfort.

Saddle Stitched Seams – no overlapping material means no pressure points.

Head Raptor 115 RS £280

Mono-Injection Mono-Injection construction not only delivers the smoothest flex pattern and more consistent performance in varying temperatures but it’s also easier to precisely customise these plastics.

Control Fit Technology – shell

Perfect Fit

Control Fit Technology boots have an anatomically contoured heel cup and a tapered mid-foot transition. This holds the navicular and cuboid without applying too much pressure or being too loose. It also means the boot has an asymmetrical toe box providing enough volume to comfortably fit the toes without compromising control. The result is better heel hold, improved instep retention without excess pressure and a toe box that feels longer, higher and more comfortable.

Perfect Fit is a liner made entirely from a special blend of PE and EVA thermoformable material that adapts to the individual foot (inside) and to the shell (outside). The result is increased precision, performance and comfort.

Fit: low to medium volume, excellent heel hold, spacious toebox The Raptor 115 provides a race fit without a super-stiff race flex. This makes it the ideal choice for both advanced skiers with slimmer feet but also lighter weight expert skiers looking for the very best foot hold. The response and precision are exactly what you’d expect from a race department model and the PU shell is capable of providing powerful skiing. The HeatFit Pro liner is ready to be custom moulded at the time of fitting and extras like the twin canting and adjustable flex increase the personalization possibilities.

Features: Spine-Tech Sizes: 25.0-29.0 (whole sizes only) Code 701408

Adaptive Fit Technology The forefoot width on Adaptive Fit Technology boots can easily be altered from 103mm to 101mm and back again – as many times as you like – by turning a bolt located under the boot.

boot features Full Tilt Seth Morrison £385

Active Boot Board

Sensor Grid

A rubber, running shoe-style footboard is used for impact and vibration absorption to smooth out landings and rail tricks, as well as improving control during allterrain skiing.

Harder plastics in a ski boot maximise transmission and power, softer plastics enhance comfort and foot wrap. Having the right blend is crucial. Rossignol have achieved this by using a clearly visible grid built into the shell, inside and out.

Torsional rigidity is increased for better control, foot envelopment improved for more precision, and the boot is lighter overall to make it less tiring to use.

3-Piece Construction

Fit: low to medium volume, good foot hold, average cuff Seth Morrison is a skiing icon. Fast, fearless and incredibly technical. He charges ridiculously steep lines and drops scarily huge cliffs. This is his boot, made to his specifications – stiff, powerful, smooth and responsive. This reincarnation of the original shell uses a new, bigger toe box as well as replaceable rubber soles to increase durability and aid non-slip walking.

The liner is the Intuition Pro for the best combination of foot hold and comfort. If there’s a touch of Seth about the way you ski, then this boot is what you need.

This 3-piece system uses a ‘floating’, ribbed tongue that eliminates distortion and bulging during flexing, meaning the shell and cuff can be close fitting and laterally stiff. Landings and variable terrain are absorbed better as the boot progressively flexes with the ankle and leg.

The rubber boot board means amazing shock absorption and the ability to stomp tricks that regular models might just destroy shins with. Foothold and precision come from the oven moulding Intuition liner and the clever cable closure system.

Booster Straps

Cat Tracks £16

Valued by many skiers from racers to freestylers, Boosters use a high strength elastomeric webbing to allow flexibility and shock damping. By replacing an existing Velcro strap, the performance and ski control are maximised. Comfort is improved and the empty space between the boot tongue and shin is eliminated, preventing shin bang, with the Booster also serving as a shock-absorber.

Available in 2 different stiffness options

Cat Tracks attach on the bottom of ski boots to add extra grip when walking and to prevent heel and toe areas wearing out unnecessarily. They’re simple to use and easily fold-up into a ski jacket pocket. Essential for skiers with non-replaceable sole units and massively appreciated by anyone who wants to avoid slips and falls when walking in boots.

The Sidas Drywarmer is a drying and warming device for all kinds of footwear; small enough to be pushed right in to the toe box of shoes and boots. Gentle heat warms the boots and gets rid of dampness; UV light reduces bacteria and germs.

The Eliminator offers a quick way to reduce excess volume in oversized boots or packed-out liners, helping you ski better. It attaches to existing boot tongues, comfortably securing the foot and relieving shin bite, reducing excess calf pressure and helping skiers with thin calves.

The Ski An’gel is a thin pad of friction-reducing bonded gel for skiers who suffer from sensitive shins. Placed under a sock it very effectively transfers the point of friction from the shin on to the gel pad instead, massively increasing comfort.

FOOT WARMING SYSTEMS In cold weather, heat is withdrawn from the extremities first to protect the vital organs located in the centre of the body. This already reduces performance by 12% at a muscle temperature of about 32°C. At even lower temperatures, performance may be reduced by up to 50%, simultaneously increasing the risk of injury due to less tension in the fibres of a muscle. Our Therm-ic foot warming systems with Impulse Control continuously release heat from the area under the toes. This type of heat supply increases the mobility and performance of the foot muscles and thus provides more comfort and safety.

Therm-ic SmartPack IC 950 Set £140

Therm-ic PowerPack Max Set £100

The SmartPack IC 950 Set is a high-class model with performance to match: a powerful lithium-ion battery provides warmth for up to 18 hours with 3 different heat settings and Impulse Control to stimulate blood circulation. It also comes with a global charger, so if you like to ski all over the world and don’t want cold feet spoiling your time on the slopes, this is the model for you. Included in the set are 2 battery units, heating elements and cables, Cambrelle cover for footbed and a recharging unit.

Easy to use and convenient as you can change the heat setting at any time during your skiing day; there’s even the option of no heat for those times when you just don’t need to be any warmer. Provides warmth for up to 14 hours; 3 different heat settings and Impulse Control to stimulate blood circulation means you’ll have warm feet in no time.

SKIS SKI TESTING Testing is without doubt the most anticipated part of the job for those lucky enough to be involved – but don’t think it’s some kind of jolly. It’s certainly fun, but it’s also taken very seriously. This is when we validate proposed products and also find unexpected gems. It means that we can be sure what we’re stocking really is the very best selection available. This year it took us to 7 different resorts in 5 countries, with a range of conditions, terrain and skiers involved. This means we know every ski inside out, we understand how they feel and perform at various speeds and in all snow types, and we know who they suit best. This commitment means we can help you find exactly the right pair for you.

Ski Industry of Great Britain Ski Test, Kuehtai, Tirol, Austria, February Every year we send a team of experienced testers to this huge ski demo held in the Tirol. 100’s of pairs of skis are present from 20 different ski brands, the selection is vast and it takes 5 start-to-finish full days to get through everything. It’s about compiling an approximate range then thoroughly testing each individual model. Any ski that passes will have logged many miles and been through all kinds of terrain at various speeds and with different skiers. The result is always worth it – a range of only the very best skis covering all abilities and skier types.

Ellis Brigham Staff Training Ski Test, Hintertux, Tirol, Austria, May The focus switches from selection to preparation as staff from shops nationwide come out to Austria to train on next season’s equipment.

Once again the Tirol delivered with blue skies and fresh snow overnight, perfect late season conditions ideal for testing. For 5 days every ski was put through its paces, and every tester filled out in-depth forms. Apart from very happy skiers, it means there’s first-hand knowledge of all the models in virtually any EB store. You can read their feedback and reports on the Ellis Brigham website.

This amount of testing ensures that we have the very best skis for all types of skiers, backed up by accurate information and knowledgeable staff. And if that isn’t enough, we carry big ranges of demo skis in each of our indoor snow centre stores available for customers to try. There’s noone else in the UK as dedicated to providing the right equipment, advice and opportunities to demo.

TRY-BEFORE-YOU-BUY IN THE UK Testing skis in the UK can be a useful way to make decisions before purchasing and at Ellis Brigham we have fleets of test skis at 4 of the UK’s best indoor snow slopes. Our stores at Braehead, Castleford, Milton Keynes and Tamworth carry models from Armada, Atomic, Blizzard, Head, Line, Nordica, Rossignol, Salomon and Völkl.

Our test skis are available for customers to take on the slope and try for themselves, and it could hardly be easier to arrange. Call the store at your chosen location to confirm the models you would like to demo and then arrange your own slope time to try the skis during normal shop hours. Unlike other retailers, there is no charge for you to borrow the equipment, and we positively encourage you to try more than one model. The staff in store can advise on exactly what to take and the best options to compare with.

Demo For Free: We’ve never made a charge for test equipment used at the indoor slopes, and this season if you demo skis at Ellis Brigham and decide to buy, we will knock the session price off the cost of your new skis. You could say we’re letting you demo for free! (Terms and conditions apply).

We will even add the free Ski Bag and Wax&Edge voucher with every ski purchase (see page 183 for full details) Terms: All qualifying purchases must be made no later than 1 week after the last demo date.

We will reduce the retail price by the cost of a 1 hour session. A stamped and completed demo form with receipt for slope time must be presented to obtain the discount. The discount can be claimed at any Ellis Brigham store upon presentation of the completed demo form and receipt. Offer may be withdrawn at any time. Not to be used in conjunction with sale prices or any other offer (except free Ski Bag and Wax&Edge offer).

THREE STEPS TO BUYING SKIS One of the best parts of our job is matching equipment to customer’s needs. Finding the perfect item to improve the enjoyment of whatever sport it is they’re participating in, and nowhere is this truer than with skiing, but especially skis. We take our product testing very seriously – the skis on the following pages are the very best available this year. Our approach to training is equally as committed. This puts us in a great position to help you select the ideal pair of skis. Buying skis isn’t difficult and with the use of this catalogue and the experts in store you’ll soon be paired up with your ultimate ski. All that’s needed is some information about your ability, what kind of terrain you’ll use the ski in, then to decide on the most suitable size. It’s as easy as 1-2-3.

Still ruling excellent ‘pop’ and are very stable with good switch riding. on piste, they love to explore beside the pistes to experience ungroomed conditions.

Freestyle skis often use more symmetrical cores and sidecuts.

STEP 3: SELECTING THE CORRECT SIZE OF SKI The size of the ski you need depends on a combination of factors such as weight, ability, flex, shape and the intended use. As a rough guide use the following: Piste Chin height to eye level, for easy carving and responsiveness. Longer for extra stability and wider, bigger turns.

All Mountain Nose level to forehead, can also depend on the width of ski chosen.

Freeride Forehead to over head height. Go ‘as big as you can handle’ for maximum floatation.

Freestyle Ski it eye level for the maximum ease of spinning and rail tricks, go bigger for allmountain versatility or extra stability and speed.

Alpine Skis Product Marketing Manager, Salomon EB: The X-Drive range features some of the most popular skis (at a variety of price points from low to high) over the last few seasons, why do you think this is?

Salomon: The majority of skiers are looking for a ski that can handle lift accessed piste and some off-piste territory. The X-Drive range offers 3 levels of performance to match the experience and expectations of many skiers and customers are able to lock into a model that most fits their needs. I choose X-Drive 8.0 FS in 168cm. Pete EB: X-Drive skis feature some new and exciting technologies for this winter, can you talk us through some of them?

Salomon: X-Chassis is the new power house found at the heart of X-Drive skis and this provides incredible edge grip along with improved power; this is achieved through strategically placed diagonal carbon-fibre reinforcement. Elastomer pads that are placed within the ski construction at the ends of the X-Chassis filter out unwanted bumps and shocks. Add to that Rocker Stabilization (RKS) which is a 3D composite fibre reinforcement

page 184

EB: The majority of skis in the X-Drive range sit around 80mm in the waist with sub 17m turn radii, what is it that makes this kind of dimension such a popular choice?

Salomon: Yes the 80mm waist width is a key footprint within the X-Drive range as it is the most appealing and versatile width for those skiers looking for a true all-mountain frontside ski. As you move through the range the skis have added features dropped in. Scott EB: Salomon is well known for innovations and their free spirit, characteristics that sit very well with new Rocker2 100 ski. When you are planning a new ski, what are the first steps, how do you decide what it is you want to do?

Salomon: The process in developing a new ski model is one that can take several years. We first look at the consumer needs and how the sport is evolving. The Rocker2 100 is a model that allows the skier to explore powder and still perform very well on piste. It is also a great 1 ski quiver for those that want to spend some time in the terrain park as well as skiing off piste. Scott

SKI HARDWARE

Product Manager, Rossignol EB: Air Tip technology was successfully introduced on the 7 series skis last year. The use of this design has been expanded and we’re now seeing it on the Experience and Temptation skis. Can you describe what Air Tip actually is and why it features on these skis?

David: A patented technology exclusive to Rossignol! The tip is air filled for lightness and constructed in a hexagonal format to retain maximum torsional rigidity. The ski's weight is redistributed, freeing the tip and tail of the ski (on 7 series models) and providing greater ease, security and versatility. The fact that the centre of gravity is closer to the centre of the ski concentrates strength under the skier's feet. In the Experience and Temptation models we only use air technology on the tip, this reduces the swing weight leading to quick and responsive turn initiation.

EB: When you’re working on new technology like this, how does the process start, what drives the idea in the beginning and how long does it take to develop?

David: At Rossignol we’re constantly try to push the boundaries of design and innovation. Air Tip is not a new concept, we played around with this idea 20 years ago in our Open skis, but today’s technologies and production processes allow us to really experiment with how far we can go! This version was dreamt up almost 4 years ago in first test experiments.

EB: Do you do anything different to Air Tip depending on the model of ski and how it’s going to be used?

page 186

David: No, the concept is essentially the same idea. In 7 series models like the Soul 7 we have air tip and tail with a 50% Powder Turn Rocker profile; this seriously reduces the actual weight of the skis. In our Experience and Temptation models we only use Air Tip to give the skis a lightning quick reaction into the turn, weight is not a priority here as we need ultimate performance both on piste and in the variable terrain.

EB: Another key feature of these all condition skis is the Extended Sidecut, can you describe what this is and how it affects the ski?

David: We developed the longer sidecut to improve high-speed grip while simultaneously improving low-speed handling. Extending the sidecut far into the tip means that the ski can be in contact with the snow along its full length when the skier is angulated and at high speeds. At lower speeds, rotation becomes much easier.

EB: What’s the process involved when it comes to designing a ski’s shape, how do you decide that a ski needs features like Extended Sidecut and when during the testing procedure do you know that you have the correct shape?

David: The product team are the ‘Dreamers’! We think up all these ideas, before handing them over to the ‘Important guys’ who are the engineers, these are the folks that actually tell us if our ideas will work! If they do, we develop prototypes which then go to our full-time test team. They check and adjust several times until we get it right! If it’s not working, it’s back to the drawing board or shelved. This process can take 2 years to get right and is only signed off by one man, once we know it’s a winner!

EB: Wow, the 7 series skis certainly took the ski world by storm, do you have any idea just how many awards you won?

Franz: We don’t have any numbers, but for sure, it’s the most award-winning product for a long time in the Rossignol story.

EB: Obviously the skis didn’t need any improving for this season, but how long did the process take from start to finish when the 7 Series was first discussed in a meeting?

Franz: Skis have been evolving for more than 100 years for Rossignol, so we are always in a process of how we can deliver better product matching the consumer’s needs. For this project it took us more than 4 years, from first idea to finding the finished article in a store.

EB: With skis like these how much testing is done by Rossignol R&D staff and how much is done by sponsored freeskiers and ambassadors? Did these athletes have much say in the design process?

Franz: Our job is really to translate the consumers and athletes needs into an answer to a product. It’s usually a 6 months period of testing to validate a product; athletes are involved during the last 3 months. Obviously this time it took us less time, because the first prototypes were already really good.

EB: How long into the design process were you before you realised you had created a very special set of skis, ones that are sure to reach

page 188

iconic status? Did you know early on or was it not until test results and reorders started rolling in?

Franz: As soon as we moulded some of the first prototypes we were convinced that we will bring a unique product to the market. Then you have to go through industrial issues, performance of the product, graphic creation, and more…

EB: The Air Tip is obviously a key feature of the skis, but the Powder Turn Rocker is also something that makes the skis stand out from other wide options. Can you explain a little about what it is and how it affects the skis?

Franz: When we designed the ski, we tried to react to all the freeride trends with a unique answer. Camber under foot is key for the performance on hard snow, tip and tail rocker give the product accessibility. We were also able to adjust the profile due to the Air Tip technology.

In the end, it’s always fine tuning between construction and profile.

EB: The range has huge appeal to lots of skier types and abilities, really opening up the wide ski category, especially with the Soul 7. Was this something you always planned, did you expect quite so many people to accept new technology and shapes so quickly?

Franz: Yes, we were feeling that the European market was ready to jump on freeride skis but narrower than 110 under foot and that the American skiers were expecting a more versatile freeride ski. It was really a growing trend but we approached it to make it accessible. That was also a part of the success.

SKI HARDWARE

EB: Atomic has a really strong range for women, something that is especially apparent on the Affinity skis. Can you describe why you decided these models will have different shapes as opposed to just adapting existing unisex skis?

Maria: As we all know, there are a few points of difference between men and women’s physical attributes such as height, weight, muscle power and centre of gravity. However, we have realised that men and women also have a different riding position along with a different style of skiing. Due to this, we have invested time to understand the growing demand of women-specific skis in terms of design but also the graphical look of them. Not only have we made the skis look incredible from a women’s perspective but also made them lightweight with a V-shape body which allows effortless skiing and easy turn initiation. Along with this, we have added heel lift which supports a natural female position on the ski to reduce stress on the lower back whilst also adding separate flex zones which optimises the flex pattern. All these aspects have allowed us to create a very special women’s collection within the Atomic product range.

EB: Can you talk us through Step Down Sidewalls as they’re a vital part of the women’s skis, how come you don’t use full sidewalls or standard capped construction?

Maria: The Step Down Sidewalls are an essential feature of the women’s skis as you get the benefits from the other 2 constructions in one.

By using the Step Down Sidewalls, the skier gets greater power transmission and dampening underneath the binding whilst utilising the capped construction to allow softer flex in the tip and tail which results in easier handling and a more enjoyable ski.

page 190

EB: How do you gather feedback and information during the development phase of new skis? Are there focus groups, lots of onsnow testing, and is it skiers who work for Atomic or outside of the company?

Maria: The best part of developing new skis is obviously the fact that we get to go skiing! It’s even better that we are less than a 5 minute drive to the nearest ski resort – this means that we easily can head off and fine tune the development on a constant basis. The company is built on passion so there is never a shortage of staff that want to go and test skis! Apart from the internal testing we also travel across Europe, USA and Canada to speak to dealers, sales reps and consumers. This allows us to find out exactly what the industry wants and needs along with understanding the demand of the normal skier.

The above aspects are then blended into several women-specific focus groups that we will have throughout the development of the skis.

EB: Atomic has always had a very strong team of sponsored women skiers, apart from raising your profile and putting something back into the sport what benefits do these athletes bring in terms of product design and how do you utilise this? Do any of them contribute more interesting or effective ideas than you would expect?

Maria: The athletes are a huge help when it comes to developing the products and understanding the demands of a professional female skier. Many of the riders offer far more feedback than we expect from them, however, the stand out contributor is Molly Baker who, besides being a professional skier, also helps develop a whole host of new amazing womenspecific products.

Ski Product Manager, Nordica EB: We’re very excited about the all-new NRGY skis and the women’s equivalents for this winter.

When did you start work on this collection and what did the development involve?

Florian: Development started in September 2012, especially this new project took us more time than usual, working on a complete new construction and a new shape. We had to adapt some processes in production Mittersill to be able to solve all challenges in-house.

EB: In fact we’re so impressed we’re giving them awards, including making the NRGY 90 our Ski of the Year. At what stage of the testing process did you realise that you had made something special, was it during in-house testing or not until the industry and media tests began?

Florian: During our in-house tests we got some very positive feedback from the test team. Giving the protos first time to end consumers and some of our dealers we were already quite sure we had made something special.

EB: These new skis have really interesting shapes and profiles, why did you move away from the more traditionally shaped ranges that came before these such as Hell and Back with their standard cambers and sidecuts?

EB: Can you explain what iCore Ti is on the NRGY skis and how it works with Torsion Bridge technology?

Florian: iCore Ti is just the short technology description of the Torsion Bridge and is the combination of lightweight titanal, wood core and all the rest of the materials which are, of course, a secret ;-) EB: On the Wild Belle and Belle to Belle an Energy CA wi-Core is used, what is this and what benefits does this bring?

Florian: The women i-cores are very lightweight but stable wood/comp cores which help to reduce the weight of the skis significantly by not losing the well known performance of a sandwich ski.

EB: These skis all use wood in their cores, which brings the liveliness and energy that helps make the skis so fun, but what kinds of wood are present and how do you decide which ones to use and where?

Florian: Also here we don’t want to show all details, some secrets we have to keep. It’s a matter of experience which type of core fits to the several target groups, so it’s more about fine tuning the thickness curve of the wood core during the proto test period to offer the consumers a well-balanced ski (in terms of flex and rebound).

Florian: We wanted to get more (off-piste) versatility with the new tip shapes without losing the on-slope performance of the H&B skis. After creating a first proto without quite enough sidecut we knew where to go.

SKI HARDWARE

brand focus Founded in 2005, with the partnership of professional skier and ski designer Stephan Drake and leading ski engineer Peter Turner. They were both were inspired by a vision to make perfect skis worthy of those who live and breathe the sport. DPS introduced the world’s first and only pure pre-preg carbon fibre sandwich ski, the first 120mm powder pintail, transferred the word ‘rocker’ from surfing to skiing — then built the first rockered ski with sidecut — and unleashed the Spoon and Spoon Technology. The fusion of space-age carbon technology and ground breaking shaping has resulted in the world’s most advanced quiver of skis. DPS fosters a tight-knit community between its designers, reps, photographers, partners and skiers, while also supporting environmental initiatives and innovative multimedia projects worldwide. DPS is located at the base of the Wasatch Mountains in Salt Lake City, where it operates and owns a state-of-the-art ski factory, and maintains its global headquarters.

Spoon Technology A direct evolution from the now iconic Spoon ski, Spoon Technology combines 3 innovative, synergistic elements: shovel convexity, flat-running surfaces and squared tails. These ingredients have revolutionised deep snow riding by allowing for substantially increased control over turn shape and speed, improved planing and superior off-edge ability.

PaddleTech This is a tapered, flatter sidecut section that blends at the contact points. It’s the special ingredient that drives a uniquely smooth and intuitive sense of turn shape.

DPS Lotus 120 Spoon Pure3 £970 (ski only) Package options: with Marker Griffon £1145 with Marker Duke £1310 This is not your average ski. This is radical shaping and ground breaking design. Hand made by dedicated skiers with the very best materials. The result is a truly original powder ski, a directional charger with no substitute. Using a convex base at the shovel for improved early planing, Pure3 construction for impressive weight saving and precision, and a flex and geometry that provides unrivalled balance, this is at the cutting edge of skiing.

SKI HARDWARE

brand chat

Michele: Flipcore is a revolutionary technology to build rocker skis. The principle is quite simple, the mold shape and the core shape (thickness curve) are milled in the final rocker ski shape. In this way all the materials are pressed stressless, in the right configuration and so the natural rocker shape is given without artificially bending the ski.

The main benefits are that the ski flex and the pressure distribution are much more harmonic, the floating effect more natural and the handling becomes extremely smooth and easy. All those characteristics give skiers a new level of stability and control never reached before on a freemountain ski.

EB: Flipcore is an innovative way to add rocker to skis. When was the idea first discussed at Blizzard and were the initial trials successful?

Michele: The first idea about Flipcore was actually born around 5 years ago. This was the time when rockered skis became more widespread, and we tested and analyzed those products. Soon it was clear for Blizzard to not build ‘just another rockered ski’. We felt clear disadvantages and handicaps (chattering, no stability, weak edgegrip etc.) that these ‘against the natural flex and material-characteristics’ built skis, showed. The Flipcore idea was extraordinary even though it seemed to be logical in some way.

EB: On reflection it seems an obvious idea, flipping the milled wood core upside down to create a natural rocker shape. Had you heard of any other ski makers attempting this before you succeeded?

page 198

EB: Your test results for the whole Flipcore range have been truly staggering, as a brand whose R&D budget is surely dwarfed by the big players, could you ever have imagined just how many awards you would be winning?

Michele: Ski test results were really impressive and filled us with pride. We were sure of having created a great product and these results just confirmed how good our intuition was. Although in ski volume we are not at the same level of some of our competitors, our budget for R&D and, above all, the know-how of our engineers are extremely competitive. The amazing victories we’ve got in the Olympic Slalom and in the Freeride World Tour in the past season confirmed that.

EB: It isn’t just the men’s skis that are scooping up the awards, your range of women’s skis is also collecting them, including the Ellis Brigham Women’s Ski of the Year for this winter. How important is it to produce a strong range of skis for female skiers and how do you ensure that you have got everything right?

Michele: Almost 25% of the world market is related to women’s ski, so for us it is extremely important to have a collection that meets the specific needs of this segment. The Flipcore technology really helped us to meet these requirements because, due to the natural pressure distribution, skiing becomes easier and needs less effort from the skier. Obviously the final ski performance validation is given by a dedicated women test ski team and since the first time they tested the Flipcore technology they loved it. Moreover to develop the graphics we rely on a team of female designers whose proposals come evaluated through worldwide focus groups.

So we really try to make what women want…

Blizzard Sheeva

EB: Blizzard free-mountain skis are well-known for impeccable handling and having exactly the right balance of power and control. This seems to be a result of using well-proven construction techniques and quality materials, then adding a modern twist by using Flipcore. Can you explain what Flipcore is and how it affects the ski?

Michele: No, we did not hear anything similar before. We believe the reason why nobody came up with a similar project was that technologywise, mould-wise, adjustment-wise, the permutation of this idea and concept were extremely difficult, expensive and demanding.

Package options: with Tyrolia Peak 11 £505 with Tyrolia AAAttack 13 £550 This is our Women’s Ski-of-the-Year, a proven top-seller and regular test winner. It’s an all-mountain ski that is so encouraging, so smooth and stable, and also full of life and energy. With Flipcore construction and predictable handling it helps anxious off-piste skiers feel more in control.

Confident skiers will tap into the easy power to keep pushing their boundaries and enjoying more of the mountain.

Tester Comments: Andi (Bristol) ‘Powerful yet playful, fairly light yet stiff enough. Floats nicely, cuts through rougher snow and is a great piste carver. The best of everything.’

Demo available Radius: 17m (166cm) Sidecut: 123/88/108 (166cm) Binding DIN: 3 to 11 (Peak 11) Sizes: 152, 159, 166, 173 Ski code 700425

Package options: with Tyrolia AAAttack 13 £550 with Marker Griffon £605 The Bushwacker has quietly won fans for the last few years, but the secret’s now out. It is possibly the most fun, easy handling sub 90mm all-mountain ski money can buy.

The combination of Flipcore and tip and tail rocker is the key to the mix of control, energy and stability. Whatever the snow type, it provides the same encouraging balance and smoothness.

Tester Comments: Jakub (White City) ‘Proper allmountain ski. You can carve on it as well as go in deeper snow. Great compromise between piste and off-piste.’

Package options: with Tyrolia AAAttack 13 £560 with Marker Griffon £615 The Sheeva is another ski that pleasantly surprised us during testing with its ability to perform in areas of the mountain we didn’t expect. With a 104mm waist and Flipcore construction we knew it would be a delight in soft snow; tip and tail rocker ensured it behaved impeccably in variable conditions. The big surprise was the easy handling and nice energy on piste.

Tester Comments: Amanda (Bristol) ‘Handles well on piste but really deserves to be in the fresh snow. Great floatation and control; lively and surprisingly easy to use.’

Radius: 17m (172cm) Sidecut: 134/104/124 (172cm) Binding DIN: 4 to 13 (AAAttack 13) Sizes: 158,165,172 Ski code 700426

Alpine Product Manager, Völkl EB: Your range of Essenza skis for women is extremely interesting because they are unique models and do not share shapes with any unisex skis, why did you choose to do this?

Andreas: When we started the project, we took a look into sports injury statistics and there you can find out that the localisation of injuries is significantly different for men and women. Like in other many sports, in skiing ladies have a higher risk of a knee injury than men, while their risk to get hurt on shoulders or the head is less than for men. We decided to approach the new skis together with a German physician who is well known in Germany for having developed a standard method of ACL surgery and has a high reputation for treating international sports-pros, mainly soccer players. This guy lives in Straubing, our company’s home town, and he gave us a clear direction what needs to be changed on the material side to help reduce the loads on the knees during skiing.

EB: As well as the geometry being unique, there are other specific features that come under the Bio Logic name, such as flex, stance and the core. What is the Bio Logic technology about and how does it influence the skier?

Andreas: Biologic Technology is meant to reduce the loads that get applied to the knee while skiing.

Especially the sidecut where the slim tails help to avoid power peaks at the exit of the turn, when

page 200

many injuries happen. In addition, a flat stance is supporting the involvement of more muscle groups in the upper leg. Last but not least, we see it as a key factor that the skis are very light weight without sacrificing the edge grip and stability expected by a sportive skier.

EB: Völkl are not cutting corners with the Essenza range and introduce lots of differences at increasing performance levels, how important is this commitment to detail?

Andreas: We are convinced that lady skis should not only be sold by colour and design. A set of real advantages is needed and expected from the customer to be sustainably successful in that segment.

EB: Considering how successful test results and sales are for skis like the Allura, Kenja and Aura, why do you think that more manufacturers do not make high-performance female specific skis like Völkl do?

Andreas: This demands a huge effort on all sides in the company. Development, testing and moulds – all together a big investment that needs to be paid for. This decision requires a certain size and competence of the company. A key factor is that our production facilities are in Germany, where all these ladies skis are being made. The high level of competence and craftsmanship, as well as the fact that we are having the R&D sitting in the same building where all these skis are getting produced, enables us to realise such big and complex projects in a reasonable time.

Völkl Allura + iPT eMotion 11.0 TC £550

Völkl RTM 81 + iPT WR 12.0 D £600

The Allura is an all-mountain carver, a real performance women’s ski capable of powerful turns and fast, precise skiing. Using Double Grip XTD construction with a wood core and metal, you can be sure grip won’t disappoint.

But it has a mellower side too, with the use of tip rocker easing the turn initiation and improving all-terrain ability.

Tester Comments: Amanda (Bristol) ‘This is one powerful ladies ski. Pick up some speed to get a feel for the liveliness and response. Actually handles slower speeds quite well.’

Demo available Radius: 15.3m (158cm) Sidecut: 125/75/96 (158cm) Binding DIN: 3 to 11 Sizes: 151, 158, 165 Ski code 700463 Binding code 702463

Völkl kept their DNA but ignored the rule book with the RTM 81, creating a monster of an all-mountain carver. A firm flex is guaranteed by the wood and steel in a burly construction of Dual XTD Transmission Sidewall. Strip the complicated terms out and this means power, grip and speed on hard pack. Full low rocker adds a whole level of all-terrain ability and control at any speed.

Tester Comments: Steve (Buying Team) ‘A powerful allmountain ski with plenty of grip. Full rocker really does smooth out rougher conditions.’

Demo available Radius: 17.4m (171cm) Sidecut: 126/81/108 (171cm) Binding DIN: 4 to 12 Sizes: 171, 176, 181 Ski code 700455 Binding code 702455

Völkl Chiara + 4Motion 11.0 TC £475

Völkl RTM 80 + iPT WR 12.0 D £550

This isn’t some men’s all-mountain carver re-hashed and softened for women. It’s a specifically designed, shaped and tuned women’s ski that takes full advantage of Völkl’s innovative Bio-Logic technology. Forgiving yet lively, it will ski pistes all day at any speeds or happily search out challenges off the sides.

Tester Comments: Sarah (Aviemore) ‘Versatile ski that has easy turn initiation and good liveliness. Handled the bumps and chopped up off-piste really well.’

Demo available Radius: 15.7m (155cm) Sidecut: 123/77/97 (155cm) Binding DIN: 3 to 11 Sizes: 148, 155, 162 Ski code 700464 Binding code 702464

The RTM 80 is unlike most other skis. It mixes firmness from a wood and steel core with a precision resulting from the meaty build of Dual XTD transmission. And rather than just relying on shape for all-terrain performance it uses a full rocker to produce smoothness and control in even the trickiest snow. One for advanced skiers who demand the best but don’t always want to work so hard.

Tester Comments: Tom (Tamworth) ‘Smooth and stable over soft pistes. Came into its own speeding down choppy afternoon runs, mixing up turn shapes.’

ALL MOUNTAIN CARVE

Völkl Aurena + 4Motion 10.0 Lady £350

Völkl RTM 75 iS + 4Motion 10.0 £425

The Aurena suits intermediate and sporty novice skiers looking to progress quickly and to master all the pistes and maybe even some ungroomed terrain at the sides.

The light wood core and tip rocker ensure good response and easy handling; the dimensions and sidecut make it feel nimble and easy to control.

Tester Comments: Sarah (Aviemore) ‘Great easy ski that encourages carving. Very stable at low and medium speeds with nice edge grip and a light, forgiving feel.’

Demo available Radius: 13.7m (159cm) Sidecut: 120/75/105 (159cm) Binding DIN: 3 to 10 Sizes: 147, 153, 159, 166 Ski code 700465 Binding code 702465

Völkl has a reputation for building skis with great grip and precision, and the RTM 75 iS is no exception.

Aimed at confident intermediates it will help sharpen up technique on-piste and even encourage you to find a few turns off-piste. A wood core with camber underfoot aids edge hold and response; rocker on the nose improves control in all conditions.

Tester Comments: Rob (Manchester Deansgate) ‘Great fun, especially short radius turns. Lively and precise with nice rebound.’

Demo available Radius: 15.2m (166cm) Sidecut: 120/75/105 (166cm) Binding DIN: 3 to 10 Sizes: 166, 173 Ski code 700457 Binding code 702457

brand chat EB: The Mantra has been one of the iconic skis of the last few years, a reference point for brands and skiers alike, how nervous were you when it was first decided to give it a re-design?

Patrick: We are constantly collecting new information because we are working with such a big collection of skis at Völkl. Skiing with team riders, discussing with engineers and exchanging ideas with skiers on all levels are just one part of the process. The whole idea of building a perfect ski for a certain target group or operational area develops slowly. So even if we have a bigger change on one model, the whole concept forms in a certain time span. That’s why a re-design of a ski like the Mantra doesn t make us nervous at all.

One other reason is also the big amount of energy and money we put into the development process.

In one year we are testing approximately 750 pairs of prototype skis. These Skis are built only to adjust the perfect flex and rocker specifications.

EB: With such a popular and successful ski how do you start this process, is it led by rider information, consumer feedback or factory results?

Patrick: The character and direction of a new ski should be a mixture of all those things. Riders know what a ski has to endure and consumers want to have maximum fun on a ski. Our idea of a good ski is that it fits exactly to users’ expectations. Then, for this skier the product must not collapse in any situation. Nevertheless a good ski is always supporting, easy to control and has a wide performance spectrum.

EB: Völkl have never been afraid to play around with camber and rocker (just look at the full rocker all-mountain skis of the RTM range), at what stage was it decided that the new Mantra was to be full rocker and why is it that Völkl has so much faith in this kind of profile? (Just to be

page 202

clear, we at Ellis Brigham truly believe that a well-made full rocker ski is a delight to use!)

Patrick: With a big range of skis and various target groups we could test a lot and collect a lot of rocker information throughout the last years.

So when the Mantra was ready for an update it was already pretty clear that we would go for a full rocker. One of our biggest goals in the last years was to make skis easier to use but keep or improve the performance and stability level.

Rocker is a really good way to improve a ski like this. The pre-bent shape itself makes the ski turn easier and where the ski is bent up already you need less flex. One of the biggest advantages of a rocker shape is that we can stiffen up a ski in the rocker zone. In other words we can combine playfulness and sportiness. The bigger or wider the skis are, the more they will benefit from a full rocker shape because they are heavier due to their big surface. The new Mantra with 100mm under foot, a full rocker and a tapered tip shape took a big step towards a powerful freeride ski. With the smooth adjustment of the rocker, the stiffer flex and the material mix we could keep the strong performance on piste.

EB: With having no camber how do you ensure that a powerful ski like the Mantra doesn’t end up losing all the characteristics that made it so well known?

Patrick: The Mantra is the perfect 50/50 freeride ski, the freeride ski that always works. This was important for us and we focused on it every single on-snow day that we had. The new Mantra is way more powerful off-piste and, with the increased stiffness in the rocker, it is even able to transfer the power on hard snow better than before. This is possible with a precise fine adjustment of the round shape and the flex. We could also transfer a lot of knowledge from our RTM skis here. The wider RTM skis are fully rockered all-mountain skis and they are known to be amongst the most powerful ones on the market.

Sticking with a very similar shape and the same construction means it retains all the class-leading grip and power. By adding low rocker, and a couple of mm’s width, a new level of manoeuvrability and control in all terrain and conditions is achieved.

EB: Armada is a rider-owned company, what advantages does this bring to you?

Hans: Being rider-owned keeps us disciplined by ensuring we are continually developing to their needs. As they advance as athletes so must the product. From an internal perspective, we try not to burden them with the day-to-day aspects of the business and let them focus on what they do best, which is to ski – developing great products comes from that. Outside the product development advantages of being rider-owned, we also benefit from not reporting to any parent company. This frees us up in a number of capacities, most notably in our flexibility to be based out of two unique offices: our world HQ in Costa Mesa, California and a satellite office in Innsbruck, Austria. Costa Mesa is the heart of surf and skate culture and is a driver for youth trends. Innsbruck, on the other hand, gives us good visibility and close proximity to what is happening in the Alps, allowing us to take a lot of ideas from our presence there.

EB: When it comes to developing new models where does the inspiration come from, and of which of the team riders comes up with the craziest stuff?

Hans: If you give the athletes the venue to communicate and develop their ideas, you get a lot of good input and that is where a lot of great concepts originate. Many on our team are valuable contributors, but one guy who stands out is JP [Auclair] – he has a really fundamental understanding of ski design and can explain what he’s feeling in a tangible, articulate way for our engineers. JP also happens to be one of the founders and owners of the business, so he is certainly motivated to contribute to what is ultimately his.

EB: With skis like the ARV Ti at 98mm in the waist with a wood/metal construction you’re moving slightly away from the type of ski Armada are best known for (freestyle and backcountry), and going into one of the most competitive areas of the market. What makes this ski particular stand out from the others?

Hans: The ARV [along with the AR5] was one of two models of skis we originally launched with 11 years ago, so it has played a major part in our collection since our inception. We have made improvements, like adding titanal and rocker to the current version, which enhances its stability and versatility to perform well in a wider variety of conditions. Couple those changes with full laminates of carbon fibre and you get a ski that really separates itself from others in the category.

EB: Skis like the El Rey and Cantika are ideal for riders buying their first freestyle ski as they can shred in the park and still rip elsewhere on the mountain, but how do skiers choose between higher performance models like the AR7 and Alpha X that have very different shapes and profiles?

Hans: The Alpha X, for example, has our patented 5-dimension design. To break that down, that’s a combination of rocker, reverse sidecut in the tip and tail and sidecut underfoot. This makes the ski a bit more playful on firmer snow but enhances its performance in softer conditions. It has a shorter effective edge, so it makes it really easy and playful to ski. In contrast, the AR7 doesn’t have any rocker, resulting in more effective edge and a traditional 3-dimension shape. It isn’t going to be as playful as a ski with rocker due to the longer effective edge, but the stability afforded to the skier is a desired characteristic for many.

Armada ARVw £500 (ski only)

Armada AR7 £400 (ski only)

Package options: with Tyrolia AAAttack 13 £620 with Marker Griffon £675 The ARVw has thoroughbred credentials with a Comp Series Base, carbon fibre layup and Hybrid Ultralight wood core. This makes a quality ride on piste, and is enhanced by the camber underfoot producing excellent grip. Clever shaping and a big nose rocker provide great control in variable conditions and soft snow. Free-spirited allmountain skiers with a taste for off-piste will love what this ski can do.

Tester Comments: Amanda (Bristol) ‘Very light and effortless to control. Tip rocker and overall shape made them easy to pivot and powder was simple.’

Radius: 18.5m (168cm) Sidecut: 131/97/121 (168cm) Binding DIN: 4 to 13 (AAAttack 13) Sizes: 158, 168 Ski code 700434

Package options: with Tyrolia AAAttack 13 £520 with Marker Griffon £575 Armada’s flagship park model, the everyday ski for serious park skiers. AR50 Sidewalls help with performance and increase durability. The flex is firm underfoot and softer at the tip and tail for easy butters. The sidecut and dimensions are dialled for jumps and features, but work equally well on other terrain, taking you from the groomers to the park and back via bumps, trees and whatever else.

Tester Comments: Tom (Tamworth) ‘A powerful park ski performing well on piste. Lively and quick edge-to-edge, full camber adds pop and straight sidecut adds stability.’

Demo available Radius: 19.5m (171cm) Sidecut: 118/85/108 (171cm) Binding DIN: 4 to 13 (AAAttack 13) Sizes: 166, 171, 176, 181 Ski code 700432

Armada ARV Ti £510 (ski only)

Armada Cantika £320 (ski only)

Package options: with Tyrolia AAAttack 13 £630 with Marker Griffon £685 Hitting straight at the group of powerful all-mountain skis around 100mm in the waist, the ARV Ti makes a real position for itself, standing out with something different.

A wood and titanal core has carbon fibre stringers so there’s plenty of grip and power. Underfoot the ski uses camber for response and edge hold, and a big nose rocker for smooth tracking in soft and difficult snow.

Tester Comments: Phil (Cambridge) ‘Responsive and quick edge-to-edge for a 98mm ski. Handles all conditions well from slush to powder to groomed and crud, and feels fun in all this.’

Demo available Radius: 20.5m (178cm) Sidecut: 133/98/123 (178cm) Binding DIN: 4 to 13 (AAAttack 13) Sizes: 168, 178, 188 FREERIDE Ski code 700430

Package options: with Tyrolia Peak 11 £395 with Tyrolia AAAttack 13 £440 The Cantika’s core has been tweaked to make it more versatile, without damaging the park performance. This all-mountain twin tip is still as happy lapping jumps and jibs as it is skiing groomers and variable terrain. Positive camber produces grip and energy; the short radius and 81mm waist make it easy to control and feel great in a variety of conditions.

Tester Comments: Andi (Bristol) ‘Lively, soft ski with quite a lot of pop (thanks to full camber). Super playful and very forgiving.’

Demo available Radius: 14m (157cm) Sidecut: 117/81/107 (157cm) Binding DIN: 3 to 11 (Peak 11) Sizes: 150, 157, 164 Ski code 700436

Armada Alpha X £460 (ski only)

Armada El Rey £320 (ski only)

Package options: with Marker Griffon £635 with Marker Jester 16 £720 Skis with this much park performance really shouldn’t work that brilliantly across the rest of the mountain, but the Alpha X does. The very features that make it such a good freestyle ski translate perfectly to all-terrain riding: 5-point sidecut, EST Park Rocker, Comp Series Base, carbon Kevlar stringers. This is a quality ski no matter where you take it.

Tester Comments: Matt (Tower House) ‘It’s a park ski that can ski the whole mountain; floats off-piste and rips on the groomers, good for pressing and fun everywhere you take it.’

Demo available Radius: 15m (170cm) Sidecut: 108/120/93/110/100 (170cm) Binding DIN: 4 to 10 (Griffon) Sizes: 170, 176, 182 ALL TERRAIN FREESTYLE Ski code 700431

Package options: with Tyrolia Peak 11 £395 with Marker Griffon £495 The upgraded El Rey is now livelier and even more playful.

The turn radius and 85mm waist combined with a durable construction, carbon stringers and a positive camber provide good control and tuned response, whether lining up jibs or shredding trails. This is Armada’s go-to ski for riders who appreciate a few laps on the groomers before hitting the park.

Tester Comments: Jakub (White City) ‘Well balanced for skiing forwards or switch. Responsive for fun turns on firm snow. The helpful sidecut makes this a good all-round ski.

Demo available Radius: 17.5m (171cm) Sidecut: 121/85/111 (171cm) Binding DIN: 3 to 11 (Peak 11) Sizes: 157, 164, 171, 178 Ski code 700433

SKI HARDWARE

Package options: with Tyrolia AAAttack 13 £670 with Marker Griffon £725 The AK version has all the sweet upgrades as the regular JJ: longer radius for better stability and a tweaked shape for more effective edge. It’s just wider and longer than its little brother, built for faster speeds and straighter lines.

EST Freeride Rocker uses camber underfoot for grip; the tip and tail rocker works with the new more gradual taper for improved float at slow speed and better control on steep terrain.

Tester Comments: Jakub (White City) ‘Very stable in deep snow, surprising response and nimble for the size. In fresh powder it is almost like cheating! My favourite pow ski.’

Radius: 18m (195cm) Sidecut: 134/141/120/137/130 (195cm) Binding DIN: 4 to 13 (AAAtack 13) Sizes: 195 Ski code 700427

Armada TST £480 (ski only)

Armada TSTw £480 (ski only)

Package options: with Tyrolia AAAttack 13 £600 with Marker Griffon £655 Anyone thinking of buying their first wider ski but worried how its piste and slow speed handling will be affected should take a look at the TST. The EST All Mountain Rocker means camber underfoot for grip – with sidewalls for precision – and lots of nose rocker ensures effortless floatation and smooth control no matter what the conditions.

Tester Comments: Dani (Aviemore) ‘Good stability on piste with total control at all speeds. Off-piste they’re lively, precise, predictable, responsive, energetic, stable… a truly amazing, versatile, ski.’

Radius: 14.7m (174cm) Sidecut: 118/131/101/122 (174cm) Binding DIN: 4 to 13 (AAAttack 13) Sizes: 174, 183, 192 Ski code 700429

Package options: with Tyrolia AAAttack 13 £600 with Marker Griffon £655 The TSTw is a slim freeride model and thanks to its EST All-Mountain Rocker – that uses nose rocker and a flat tail – it has impressive firm snow performance. The large nose and the long tip taper ensure easy handling and intuitive turn initiation, and with the 100mm waist provide remarkable floatation. However it’s the stability, control and all-condition riding that really make this ski stand out.

Tester Comments: Andi (Bristol) ‘Thanks to the EST these are brilliant in powder, even for someone with not much off-piste experience. ‘ Radius: 12.6m (165cm) Sidecut: 117/130/100/121 (165cm) Binding DIN: 4 to 13 (AAAttack 13) Sizes: 156, 165, 174 Ski code 700435

EST Freeride Rocker uses camber underfoot for grip; the tip and tail rocker works with the new more gradual taper for improved float at slow speed and better control on steep terrain.

Tester Comments: Eddie (Castleford) 'Still one of the best BC freestyle skis. Light and playful, pivots easily, and the tapered tips, large rocker and wide waist give incredible soft snow performance.’

Marker Lord SP £275

Marker Jester £260

Marker Griffon Schizo £220

SP stands for Ski Patrol because the Lord SP is a highperformance binding for skiers who want touring and alpine boot compatibility with the power for skiing fast in any condition – exactly what the ski patrol demand. The toe height is adjustable to conform to ISO standards for alpine and touring boots. The low stand height and wide platform ensure precise ski control; tough construction deals with the issues of freeriding. Strong boot retention with impressive elasticity reduces pre-releases. Requires a ski at least 76mm wide. DIN 514 (110mm brake).

Code 702399

The Jester is the big brother to the Griffon, it’s the choice of freestylers and freeskiers who demand superior performance.

Using magnesium parts increases the strength without affecting weight; a cross-axis toe spring and compact mounting pattern centralise the swing weight for easier spins. Excellent boot retention with good elasticity reduces pre-releases; a gliding AFD produces a precise release behaviour. Requires a ski at least 76mm wide. DIN 6-16 (110mm brake).

Code 702498

The Schizo uses the Griffon heel and toe pieces that are mounted onto lightweight plates connected by a cable. Rather than being fixed in position like other bindings, this design allows the position to be rider-adjusted by up to 6cm along the ski and means the stance can be tuned to different terrain and conditions. Set it forward for park and easier switch skiing, all the way back for powder and big GS turns, or just play around with it till you find your perfect stance. Requires a ski at least 76mm wide. DIN 4-13 (110mm brake).

Code 702497

Marker Jester Pro £275 The Jester Pro is a tough, burly binding for freeskiers who need the best gear. The strong build is resilient to the bangs and slams of high-level skiing; a wide platform delivers power to the ski more efficiently. The short mounting pattern produces a centralised swing weight; a reduced stand height and ramp angle make skiing switch easier. Requires a ski at least 76mm wide. DIN 8-18 (110mm brake).

Code 702499

Marker Griffon £175 The Griffon weighs less than the Jester but still uses many of the same features. A cross-axis toe spring and compact mounting pattern centralise the swing weight for easier spins. Excellent boot retention with good elasticity reduces pre-releases; a gliding AFD produces a precise release behaviour. A great choice for younger, lighter or less experienced freeskiers. Requires a ski at least 76mm wide. DIN 4-13 (110mm or 90mm brake).

SKI HARDWARE

THE SKI WORKSHOP At Ellis Brigham we’re passionate about everything to do with skiing, and that includes maintenance and tuning. We’re very proud of our workshops and the technicians who work in them, but that doesn’t mean we rest on our laurels. We’re constantly running training courses and investing in new equipment, upgrading techniques and introducing fresh ideas. We provide a wide choice of services, all carried out with skill and care, ranging from a hand-crafted hot wax to the ultimate ‘Premium Ten Step Service’. All you need to do is take your skis into any branch of Ellis Brigham, where the friendly technicians will inspect them and advise you on the particular level of service necessary.

PREMIUM TEN STEP SERVICE £38.00 What happens to your skis in the premium 10-step workshop service?

Thorough inspection / full base clean / belt grind to correct minor damage / gouges filled / fine belt grind for a smooth finish / stone grind to add structure for better gliding / sharpen and bevel edges (please let us know of any special requests) / fine-tune edges for a smoother ride / hand crafted hot wax for the best penetration / check, polish and pack to ensure the skis remain in pristine condition.

STANDARD SERVICE £32.00 By popular demand, this service provides the same care and attention as the Premium but with a finishing belt in place of a stone-ground one.

Hot waxing is always done with hand irons to give your skis a long-lasting performance wax job. Speak to our technicians about any special requests regarding edge angles and waxes.

We carry a range of high-quality, temperature specific waxes in our workshops. If you want the perfect finish for the conditions you’re expecting we can use a temperature specific wax at an extra charge of £3.

At certain locations we are also able to do same day wax and edge at £30, these do need to be booked in advance.

KIDS’ HARDWARE

KIDS’ HARDWARE Blizzard GS IQ JR £155 & £170

K2 Juvy + FasTrack2 £210

The GS IQ is a kids’ ski that has ‘fun’ as its mantra. It’s lightweight and not too stiff, with the IQ system producing a nice even flex for good levels of grip. A 68mm waist and short radius ensures it’s nimble and quick on piste with smooth flowing turns. The soft flex enables easy skids and slides if the terrain gets too tricky.

This is the ideal choice for young skiers to enjoy their time on snow and keep improving too.

The Juvy is a junior twin tip for all-mountain rippers, built using many adult features such as Torsion Box construction, All-Terrain Rocker and an aspen wood core. Torsion Box, with wood triaxially braided in fibreglass, gives the ski ease of use and energy, as well as increasing the torsional rigidity. The All-Terrain Rocker technology improves turn initiation and helps with stability in soft conditions; the FasTrack2 binding allows a smooth flex and even pressure distribution for good edge hold. This is a great ski for using in and out of the park, or learning the first powder turns.

BACKCOUNTRY

The feeling of skiing in fresh snow, making new tracks, is a very unique one, especially when the turns have been earned through sweat and effort. Climbing uphill, gaining distance step-by-step, brings a certain satisfaction, enhanced when vistas come into view, reserved for those who had to work hard to get there.

However you get your kicks off-piste and touring, modern equipment is improving the experience and the new kit shown on the next pages is the best the industry has to offer.

The skis, boots, bindings and safety gear will make your time in the backcountry safer, easier and ultimately, more enjoyable.

In addition to the online shop you can also find this range of equipment in a spread of stores across the country. Our Ellis Brigham Backcountry Centres cover Scotland, the North and the South of England with centres in Glasgow, Manchester and London.

BACKCOUNTRY Dynafit Manaslu £500 The high-tech, high-quality Manaslu smoothly crosses over from pure tourer to off-piste freeride ski. This is achieved by cleverly balancing the extra width wanted for freeskiing with the light weight required for touring. Carbon Speed Stringers aid the athletic handling without adding unnecessary grams, Micro Sidewalls stay light but because they’re embedded deeper in the ski they increase strength.

The 3D carbon construction of the Flexi Tip dampens vibrations and saves weight. A Triple Radius sidecut with the shortest radius underfoot ensures impressive stability and the Scoop Rocker improves control.

Weight: 1380g (pair 174cm) Radius: 18/21m (174cm) Sizes: 174, 182

Sidecut: 123/90/108.5 (174cm) Code 700448

Dynafit Manaslu Speedskins £165 (Not shown) Pre-cut skins with a quick-fitting Click system that also helps to keep snow out. A 3-layer construction uses a waterproof membrane in the middle to protect the adhesive. As they are made specifically for the Manaslu there’s no fiddling with trimming the skins down before they’re first attached, and the Click system ensures they’re super easy to take on and off. 70% mohair, 30% nylon.

Weight: 250g (each, 174cm) Sizes: 174, 182

Code 713057

Whitedot Ranger CarbonLite CL:3 £796 This very special ski will go up hill with as much ease as it glides through powder and rips up hard snow. It’s impressively light at 1615g per ski, yet it has all the power and control of the strongest fat skis. The 108mm waist and long radius provide float and stability; camber underfoot, a poplar/ash core and sidewall construction ensure grip and energy. But what makes it so good is the CarbonLite CL:3 design. This combination of carbon, Kevlar and flax retains all the torsional strength of a traditional build and actually increases the endurance as well as dramatically lightening the ski.

Sidecut: 138/108/119 (186cm) Code 700477

Black Diamond Carbon Aspect

Whitedot Preacher CarbonLite CL:3 £796 Black Diamond Carbon Convert

Whitedot Preacher CarbonLite CL:3

Whitedot Ranger CarbonLite CL:3

Dynafit Manaslu

Weight: 3230g (pair 186cm) Radius: 28m (186cm) Sizes: 168, 177, 186, 195

The Preacher is a winner of ski tests and on the Freeride World Tour and this CarbonLite CL:3 version improves it even further. The same oversized all-mountain dimensions remain, as does the powerful camber. Where it really stands out is the CL:3 design of carbon, Kevlar and flax. This makes it lighter, more responsive and, by stiffening the torsional rigidity, gives it even more grip on hard snow, turning a great ski into an exceptional one.

Weight: 3650g (pair 189cm) Radius: 19m (189cm) Sizes: 169, 179, 189

Sidecut: 155/112/133 (189cm) Code 700476

Black Diamond Carbon Convert £550 The Carbon Convert is a remarkably lightweight, rockered touring ski designed to blend alpine-inspired performance with backcountry efficiency. It’s ideal for weight-conscious BC missions where technical precision and soft-snow performance are equally important.

The Formula One 3D Sandwich Light construction delivers maximum torsional stiffness with the least amount of weight possible, resulting in very effective power transmission to the edges. Pre-preg carbon fibre and a paulownia wood core ensure there are no excess grams, helping make it 380g per pair less than the non-carbon version.

Weight: 2900g (pair 180cm) Radius: 23m (180cm) Sizes: 172, 180, 188

Sidecut: 133/105/117 (180cm) Code 700478

Black Diamond Carbon Aspect £500 Built for long, efficient approaches and technical skiing, the Carbon Aspect is a classically shaped, lightweight touring ski that’s made even more effective by its ultralight carbon construction. A flat sandwich build, using a paulownia wood core, pre-preg carbon and racing edges optimises this lightweight design. The semi-rocker tip improves handling in rougher/softer snow and the flat tail ensures good grip when it gets firmer. Minimal touring weight and maximum downhill performance.

Weight: 2600g (pair 176cm) Radius: 19m (176cm) Sizes: 166, 176, 186

SKI TOURING BOOTS

Photo: Icebreaker

Ski touring boots are becoming ever lighter and better performing.

The walk functions operate more efficiently and the downhill skiing ability continues to improve. Choose this kind of boot if you know you’ll be spending plenty of time on the uphill, where weight, ease of use and insulation are important. Despite often being built only for touring bindings, they still do a wide range of skiing, from miles of pistes to multi-day tours.

Dynafit TLT6 Mountain CL £530

Dynafit Mercury TF £550

Dynafit’s TLT6 Mountain CL is for skiers who demand the best boots for high-level climbing and skiing. Like the boot it replaces, the TLT5, it has a short rockered sole and perfect crampon compatibility. The Ultra-Lock system allows incredible cuff movement and uphill agility with a super-fast, single-motion transition from walk to ski mode; a new rear spoiler provides an adjustable forward lean angle. Use the boot with the black tongue for most support, coloured tongue for standard levels and no tongue for maximum flex.

The CL liner is light, well articulated and 100% thermoformable. For use with tech bindings.

Climbing agility without skiing compromise – the Mercury has the power to drive freeride skis and the foot retention to deal with any terrain. A removable booster tongue means the flex can be customised, as can the forward lean and internal cuff stoppers that add stiffness. The very strong Grilamid shell uses magnesium buckles for toughness without excess weight. The thermoform liner uses special foam with a high memory ability and the cuff has fibreglass reinforced PU at the rear for extra support. Compatible with all types of tour binding.

Scarpa Maestrale RS £500

Scarpa GEA RS £500

This latest version Maestrale RS takes a proven boot, the Maestrale, and adds extra performance for those tourers and freeriders who work their skis that bit harder. The shell uses a stiffer plastic for more response and the liner has been upgraded to improve precision. But it doesn’t stop there: the tongue has been reinforced for more power, the buckles strengthened, the instep strap is firmer for better retention and the power strap is larger for a snugger fit to the tibia.

The newest version of the women’s specific Gea RS is based on the original Gea but takes things further by adding extra performance. The shell uses a stiffer plastic for more response and the liner has been upgraded to improve precision.

SKI BOOTS

FREERIDE TOURING BOOTS Freeride touring boots offer better downhill performance than classic ski touring models. To achieve this, they use stiffer plastics and different constructions. It does mean the weight and the uphill function will be slightly compromised, but these boots offer the versatility to leave the lifts behind and still benefit from the power of an alpine boot.

Depending on the sole unit, they can fit various bindings, including DIN alpine. Choose these boots if you climb uphill primarily for better downhill. They’ll handle all day on piste, as well as longer tours.

Scarpa Freedom £370

Scarpa Freedom Wmn £370

The Freedom is going to take a lot of business away from regular alpine boots as skiers sees the benefits of a hike mode and 2 sets of sole units. Primary HP construction is a PU compound that provides power for driving big skis; Carbon Core Technology over-moulds the lower boot around a carbon fibre spine for stiffness. It comes with plenty of customisation options including cuff alignment, buckle position, spoiler height and heat moulded liner. The hike mode provides an impressive 27° of motion. Exclusively to Ellis Brigham this boot includes both the alpine sole units and the tour TLT soles, making it compatible with all bindings.

The Freedom can cruise pistes all day or help you to the top of a mountain with no lift assistance. Constructed with Primary HP over-moulded around a carbon fibre frame, the shell is light but responsive and built to drive powerful skis. The heat moulded inner boot is custom fitted and the cuff and buckles can all have the fit personalised. The Ride Power Block hike system produces an impressive 27° range of motion for comfortable walking and when locked into ski position provides strong support.

Exclusively to Ellis Brigham this boot includes both the alpine sole units and the tour TLT soles, making it compatible with all bindings.

K2 Pinnacle 130 £420

Rossignol Alltrack Pro 100 W £305

The Pinnacle 130 is a fully stacked freeride boot. The Synchro Interlock system connects the upper cuff with the shell for the power and energy transmission of an alpine boot, but when uncoupled it becomes an easy-to-use walking boot. The PrecisionFit Tour Intuition liner is customised in-store and provides warmth as well as comfort; integrated tech fittings are moulded into the shell for durability and replaceable, DIN-compatible soles adjust to any binding. Whether hiking beyond lifts or strolling across town, the Pinnacle 130 instils confidence with zero compromise in skiing performance.

The Alltrack Pro 100 W is an advanced level all-terrain boot with the performance that implies, but it also has a few little differences making it stand out. An easy to use hike mode makes walking simpler whether stretching out beyond the lifts or just getting around town. The PU shell uses Sensor Grid which is powerful and responsive; it comfortably wraps the foot without feeling stiff and unforgiving. The liner is heat moulded in-store and uses Thinsulate around the toes to increase warmth – but it’s the super-soft face material that creates the special feel.

BACKCOUNTRY Dynafit Radical ST £400-£420

Marker Duke EPF £340

The Radical takes the frameless binding concept to a wider audience thanks to its ease of use and ski-ability. The lightweight design remains powerful and retains excellent energy transfer. A low stand height increases direct contact with the ski, binding entry is simple and walking feels natural and smooth. Whether uphill or downhill the Radical never fails to impress. DIN 4-10 (92, 100 or 110mm brake).

The Duke uses a broad platform and wide mounting pattern. This improves power to the edges and increases performance with wide skis (requires a ski at least 88mm wide). It’s the ideal choice for aggressive freeriders who need a binding with touring capability for reaching the best terrain and who don’t want to sacrifice any alpine ability. There are wide twin-connecting brackets for maximum power; a short frame and low, neutral stand height increases stability. 6-16 DIN range (110mm brake).

Weight: 550g (pair) Code 713022 (92mm) £400 Code 713026 (100mm) £410 Code 713030 (110mm) £420

Marker Lord SP £275

Dynafit Radical FT £470 The Radical FT is the perfect solution for freeriders and mountaineers who love the descent. Weight is kept to a minimum and downhill performance is maximised. The carbon linkage bar can be unlocked to free the skis flex; in the lock position it stiffens, increasing power and torsional rigidity. The low height off the ski improves snow-feel and sensations. Stepping in and out is simple and the stride in walk mode feels natural.

DIN 5-12 (110mm brake).

Weight: 610g (pair) Code 713027

SP stands for Ski Patrol because the Lord SP is a high-performance binding for skiers who want touring and alpine boot compatibility with the power for skiing fast in any condition – exactly what the ski patrol demand. The toe height is adjustable to conform to ISO standards for alpine and touring boots. The low stand height and wide platform ensure precise ski control; tough construction deals with the issues of freeriding. Strong boot retention with impressive elasticity reduces pre-releases. Requires a ski at least 76mm wide. DIN 5-14 (110mm brake).

Weight: 2360g (pair) Code 702399

Dynafit Beast 14 £560 & £570 Based on a new release from last year, the Beast 14 takes the power and control aspects and saves even more weight saving thanks to the new Radical 2.0 toe piece.

The frameless design removes lifted weight on ascent and the maximum stride pattern is achieved with Dynafit pivot points. DIN 5-14 (105 or 120mm brake).

The low profile chassis increases stability and freeride performance; the twin arms are firm for better power transmission and the overall width is optimised to work with fatter skis. The toe height is adjustable and the walk mode can be activated without stepping out of the binding. DIN 4-13 (100mm brake).

Weight: 2920g (pair) Sizes: 260-320mm Code 713041 Sizes: 305-360mm Code 713042

Salomon Warden MNC 13 £220

Dynafit Beast 16 £650 & £660 This is not your ordinary tour binding, this is a freeride model developed by the top Dynafit skiers for use in what is essentially no-fall areas. It is easily the world’s lightest 16 DIN binding and boasts a lot of tech. The rotating toe piece and impressive vertical movement at rear pivot points improves energy absorption and combats premature release when landing jumps. An ultra-low stand height ensures good ski contact, the frameless design removes lifted weight on ascent, and the maximum stride pattern is achieved with Dynafit pivot points.

DIN 6-16 (105 or 120mm brake).

Weight: 940g (pair) Code 713033 (105mm) £650 Code 713034 (120mm) £660
