"CARVER" review
A classic design reimagined for endless carving, featuring a switch-carve tail. Versatile yet capable at high speeds, it's the perfect board for any turn, from dawn to dusk
The board is sturdy, so it feels stable
. If you miss your position, you'll bounce off, but it was still stable. I don't think it's for beginners... It's a bit difficult.

"Recreation" review
These genderless, categoryless skis embody the brand's concept. Anyone can enjoy them in any situation, and they're lightweight enough for touring. They're available in four sizes: 160cm, 170cm, 180cm, and 190cm
Of all the bikes I've ridden, this one left a good impression
. It's long but easy to handle. It feels like it's keeping up with you. The tail doesn't get in the way.

The now-on-sale "STEEP SKI BOOK 2025" features reviews from 106 people, including professional and amateur skiers!
This impression project was participated in by 106 skiers, from riders receiving support to the general public. Find the skis you've been interested in and explore the sensory aspects that can't be measured by specs alone. We also tracked detailed information about the test riders, such as what gear they usually use, where they ski, and their height, weight, and physique. Reading the impressions with that information in mind should give you a clearer picture. Furthermore, if you're a skier, you can watch the skiers ski downhill on Instagram or YouTube. Gather information from multiple angles and have fun agonizing over the process to choose the best skis
