BackLite

Speed Rocker

The BackLite is designed for the ski tourer focused on efficiency. Our lightweight wood core has clear weight advantages when climbing, but unlike featherweight rando race skis, it provides more power and precision when skiing frozen corn or difficult windblown. Last, the narrow 74mm waist provides exceptional skin purchase when touring on firm snow.
