Studio 4 Ski - 2025

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I took the Studio 4 out on a storm day and it felt like cheating—the wide platform just glides on top of the snow, and the rocker profile makes pivoting through trees effortless. Despite being playful and surfy, it still feels stable when you open it up in bigger terrain. It’s my go-to when the forecast calls for refills."

Who It’s For

Advanced to Expert Powder Skiers:

This ski is for riders who prioritize powder performance and want a wide platform for float and stability. Best for confident skiers who thrive in deep snow, enjoy smearing turns, and want a playful twin-tip for creative lines and switch skiing on soft days.

What It’s For

Powder Chasing and Freeride Adventures:

With a 122mm waist and rockered profile, the Studio 4 is purpose-built for storm days, back bowls, and cat-ski laps. It excels in bottomless snow, steep lines, and natural features where quick pivoting and float are essential, but isn’t meant to be your daily driver on hardpack.

Why We Like It

Float, Playfulness, and Sustainability in One:

We like how the Studio 4 makes bottomless snow feel easy, with its surfy rocker profile and elliptical sidecut that encourage smearing and creative turns. The poplar wood core keeps things lively, while the carbon/rubber stomp pad absorbs vibrations for stability. Handcrafted in Austria with renewable energy, it delivers performance while respecting the environment.
