born from an aesthetic of returning to basics,"TORRENT" and "TEMPEST,"make their debut!
The theme for ICELANTIC's 2026-27 season is "simplicity." In today's world overflowing with goods and information, brand founder Ben Anderson wants to reaffirm the importance of the idea that "Less is More." As a manifestation of this strong commitment, for the 2026-27 season, the brand has deliberately narrowed its overall lineup, focusing on the two categories in which it excels: "freeride" and "all-mountain."
In pursuing this aesthetic of simplicity, we particularly focused on developing a new model for skiers who believe that "the main focus is still the groomed slopes." This single ski allows you to ski happily all day long, regardless of snow conditions or slope type. The new "TORRENT" model and its women's version, "TEMPEST," embody this ideal all-mountain ski
Technology and skiing performance that dominate the slopes
have finally been released"TORRENT" and "TEMPEST", packed with the latest technology to maximize the enjoyment of skiing in any situation.
Unique structure and core material "V12 carbon matrix"」
The core material uses a lightweight yet stable "poplar and birch wood core," achieving a smooth and balanced flex. Its most distinctive feature is the combination of a strong wood core with the unique high-rigidity woven carbon "V12 carbon matrix."
This converts the force you apply into energy without any loss. Combined with strong rebound, quick response, and high precision, it provides a smooth and agile ride on everything from groomed slopes to moguls and rough snow surfaces
Directional rocker with ultimate operability
The profile incorporates a "directional rocker." The nose rise provides both smooth turn initiation and stability, allowing you to execute precise turns exactly as you intend, even at high speeds, while maintaining a confident feel
The "ancient wisdom" and identity embedded in the graphics
An essential element when discussing ICELANTIC skis is the beautiful artwork by artist Travis Parr. The design theme for the new model is two iconic trees that thrive in a deep, pristine forest
TORRENT is adorned with bristlecone pine, a symbol of "unyielding spirit" and "ancient sages" that have lived for over 5,000 years. It also evokes a sense of wabi-sabi, which is somewhat reminiscent of Japan. And TEMPEST is adorned with ginkgo. While a familiar symbol of autumn, the ginkgo is actually a "living fossil" that has overcome the threat of extinction, and is a symbol of "tough vitality" and "regeneration."
This graphic depicts trees enduring harsh natural environments and surviving with strength. It is sure to intensely stimulate the minds of tough skiers who pursue performance in the rugged and challenging field of snow-covered mountains
USA, a city often considered the root of snow culture. Itborn and raised in Denver, Colorado,embodies a unique worldview created by three childhood friends. Their meticulously crafted products are symbolized by their artistic and unparalleled designs. All graphics have been created by artist Travis Parr since the brand's inception. Travis utilizes a variety of expressions, from painting to CG and three-dimensional art using various materials, to create a truly one-of-a-kind world.
While skis are categorized as freeride, all-mountain, and backcountry, ICELANTIC doesn't offer skis specialized in just one area. Every ski is designed to "take you anywhere to explore mountains around the world." The concept is "Return To Nature." ICELANTIC is an ever-evolving brand that creates and disseminates its own unique culture in Japan.
