"SLAP" series that can be used from slopes to free rides
The “SLAP” series can cover everything from grooming burns to powder, BC and free rides in one unit. 92 and 98 will appear in the 2023-24 season. The flex and torsion are designed to be firmer than the conventional model, and it is a spec that can be used in competition. If you have this one, you can enjoy it in any condition, and the best cost performance is attractive.
In "SLAP 98", ZAG rider Keisuke Tezuka commented, "The tail is very tenacious, and it feels good to be able to pull it with confidence in the latter half of the turn, and the width of the top is solid, so it's easy to make turns. The ski itself is great. It's light, so it's easy to control both fine and big jumps."
BRAND features
ZAG was born in Bourg Saint-Maurice, France in 2002. The founder is Stephan Radiguet, ski instructor, high-level snowboarder and shaper of the snowboard brand Nidecker. Based on his idea of "giving all skiers the experience of snowboarding and the feeling of carving on the slopes and floating in the powder with amazing ease," he developed a ski equipped with a new rocker technology. In 2003, this rocker technology won the ISPO Brand Award, and in 2008, ZAG's know-how was condensed into the development of the SLAP series, and the first double rocker technology was released.
In 2010, in order to become the largest brand in France, the base was moved to Chamonix Mont Blanc. Since 2016, the "ZAGREEN Program" has been promoting the production of environmentally friendly products. In 2019, Wadek Gorak used the SLAP112 and won the final round of the FWT Verbier, and is also active in the competition.
