We are finally releasing technical models "SCHWALBE-Ti" and "SCHWALBE-Ca"!
ZUMA SKIS, which is recognized as a freestyle brand due to the success of Cassie Sharpe and other freestyle players, has finally kicked off the technical series! Its name is "SCHWALBE." This means "swallow" in German. The name was given to the idea of making it Swallow skis a flagship ski.
SCHWALBE-Ti | D = 114-68-102mm | R = 13.5m (160cm) | L = 160,165cm | \143,000
SCHWALBE comes in two models, the "SCHWALBE-Ti" and the "SCHWALBE-Ca" with the same shape. The difference between the two models is not just whether they contain metal or carbon, but the internal structure has been adjusted to prevent significant differences in the flex and torsion of both models. The first one was developed was SCHWALBE-Ca, followed by the second one being released with metal added to ensure stability during medium to high speed gliding.
SCHWALBE-Ca | D = 114-68-102mm | R = 13.5m (160cm) | L = 160,165cm | \100,000
For the expected riders, Ca is equivalent to the first class in badge tests, and Ti is equivalent to the technical crown. It is designed to be ridden by skilled skiers, both advanced and expert, and allows them to fully enjoy themselves on On Piste.
Introducing "GST" which offers a fun contrast to the outlook and ride feel!
GST | D = 130-98-121mm (173cm) | R = 20m (173cm) | L = 164,173,179cm | \91,300
A new multi-purpose model will be released next season, pursuing carving performance and fun at off-piste. It has long turn performance on grooming slopes, but can move easily even in small to medium directions. The gap between its slightly thicker appearance and the actual lightness is betrayed in a good way.
"PRO PIPE" is the brand's most popular season in 2025-26.
PRO PIPE | D = 114-79-106mm (173cm) | R = 19m (173cm) | L = 163,173,183cm | \103,400
Cassie Sharpe returned to the competition scene after maternity leave last season, 2024-25, suddenly won the X-GAME ASPEN, and became a hot topic. This magnificent revival was supported by the "PRO PIPE," which Kathy has been using for a long time. It features good return support for big jumps and durability to prevent impacts from landing. The tough model, which responds to the aggressive performances of top players around the world, still has a strong presence.
