The Tailored Titanal Frame, which features in the Mantra, Secret, Kendo and Kenja, is an evolution of our familiar Titanal Frame.
In this design, the width of the Titanal upper belt can be adapted to the length of the ski; the resulting torsional stiffness and the desired damping behaviour can be adapted to the skier.
The Titanal content is reduced in shorter skis, which means shorter and lighter skiers can get the most out of their skis without excessive effort.
The new Tailored Carbon Tips make the Kendo 88 extremely versatile.
Carbon fibres applied by means of Tailored Fibre Placement (TFP) allow our engineers to influence curve behaviour with great accuracy.
The strength and alignment of the fibres define the force you need to apply and the energy that builds up where it s needed.
Agile shovel reaction is a feature of special note.
This means that as soon as you initiate a turn, you can steer the ski in a measured, easy manner.
In other words, simply think about changing direction – and it happens. This construction also allows means less weight without any loss of stability.
Three radii in one ski for maximum turning & speed versatility in all mountain skiing
In this innovative manufacturing process the new Tailored Carbon Tips are produced by embroidering the individual carbon fibers onto a carrier material.
The stiffness, torsion and thus the skiing characteristics can be specifically adjusted via the fiber thickness and millimeter-precise alignment.
In this way, the fibers guide the dynamics to the areas of the ski where they are needed.
The visibly integrated Tailored Carbon Tips are light, allow an agile shovel reaction with less effort and quickly build up energy.
The Tailored Carbon Tips thus reach a new level of precision, direct tip response and active skiing pleasure.
The combination of beech and poplar results in an extremely durable wood core composed of hard wood in the binding area and lighter wood around.
