Product Summary
The ski in details
The ski for demanding female tourers looking for the perfect balance of lightness on ascent and power on descent.
The Rise Above 88 W is the first choice for demanding female alpinists for whom ascents and descents are equally important. The most versatile ski in the Rise line, it’s light enough for a swift ascent yet stable enough for any downhill conditions, whether icy, wind-blown or powdery. Its multi-layer wood core is light and provides an impressive combination of minimal weight (1,186 g @ 170 cm) and stability. The 3D radius design is especially useful in constantly changing high alpine conditions such as narrow passages and high speeds. A narrower waist underfoot and moderate shaping in the tip and tail minimise effort when skiing. The Rise Above 88 W is a touring ski that takes the ups and the downs in its stride.
