Description

SUMMIT GROOVN 106 CM RL ROCKER CAMBER SKIBOARDS 26/27

PREORDER - SHIPS OCTOBER

The new 26/27 season Summit GroovN 106 cm Red Lion (RL) Rocker Camber skiboards are engineered for all mountain terrain, all condition riding. These original “One Skiboard Does It All” skiboards hold on ice and hardpack, while also being great at floating through powder just like the SK8 96 and Invertigo/Carbon Pro 118 skiboards. These are at home anywhere in the ski resort, including those breathtaking steep chutes you see in the ski movies, ripping through moguls or flying through the glades. If you want something that does it all, these are the perfect choice.

A unique rocker/camber combination of 15% rocker front tip, 80% traditional camber, and 5% rocker tail. Riding through soft snow is almost effortless, delivering fast turn initiation and a super short turn radius. Yet with traditional camber underfoot, these offer amazing edge grip and stability on hard-pack. RL/Red Lion design.

Summit-Rocker-Camber-Graphic

The carbonium top sheet provides amazing durability, yet allows the graphics to pop without distortion. These skiboards have multiple sweet spots to explore throughout the length and 4 stainless steel inserts (allow snowboard bindings.

HYBRID ABS SIDEWALL/CAP CONSTRUCTION:

Increased torsional stability, greater edge protection, enhanced power transfer to the edges, improved vibration dampening, greater strength overall, and a full-length flex from tip to tail. Because of this construction, the top sheet has added durability.

SYMMETRICAL TWIN TIPS:

Greater ease for forward and backward riding. A tip-to-tail Northern Birch/poplar wood core provides a super smooth flex coupled with the wide body construction and fast graphite sintered bases that offer surprising speed for this length.

RECOMMENDED FOR:

Intermediate to advanced riders. Also, great for skaters transitioning to snow. Aggressive all-mountain adventuring.

Rocker/Camber Design:

A unique combination of Rocker/Camber construction — 15% rocker in front with 4 mm rise, 5% rear with 4 mm rise, and 80% traditional camber with 2 mm rise. This makes for super easy turn initiation, excellent float in powder, a very short turn radius, and provides stable carving at speed.

ABS Sidewall Construction:

Crafted with ABS sidewall construction, the Rocker construction provides many advantages over cap construction. Among these advantages are increased torsional stability, greater edge protection, enhanced power transfer to the edges, improved vibration dampening, greater strength, and a full-length flex from tip to tail. Translated, these will ride like no other skiboards you have ridden.

Wood core:

Vertically laminated, hand-selected cold-temperature birch wood core runs the full length of the skiboards, tip to tail. This provides a lighter weight, yet superior strength. The benefit of Northern Hemisphere Birch is that the colder temperatures cause the trees to grow at a slower pace, thus creating a denser, yet lighter wood. As a result, the birch wood core is very light, yet super strong and durable. Cores are vertically laminated for extra strength. The high-energy, lively wood core is sandwiched between two top layers of triaxial fiberglass (new layer added this season) for torsional strength and a layer of triaxial fiberglass underneath. An additional layer of Kevlar is added not only for extra strength and impact resistance, but also for super long durability that maintains the energetic pop in the skiboards. These skiboards offer just the right combination of flex and torsional stiffness, providing a super smooth ride without the chatter no matter how much you lay it over. In addition, a rubber dampening layer is included to absorb vibrations while still allowing maximum road feel.

360 full wrap Rockwell carbon steel edges:

Protects your skiboards from those unexpected dings while providing superior edge grip. Edges are sandblasted prior to assembly to ensure a perfect, secure fit.

Wide Body Shape:

A large skiboard surface area for maximum stability, flotation, and speed.

Symmetrical Twin-tips:

Makes it easier to ride forwards as well as backwards. Excellent handling in the parks and pipes. Also, makes for the most perfect carves.

Die Cut Graphite Sintered bases:

This is one of the best base materials for durability, maximum wax absorption, and speed. These p-tex 4000 bases have less friction and thus more speed as well as less vulnerability to abrasion and impacts.

Carbonium Top Sheet:

One of the strongest top sheets available (and very rare) that not only offers amazing top sheet protection from those potential dings and chips, but also allows the sharp graphics to show through in all their detail. Includes a UV protective layer.

Aluminum reinforcement layer:

Provides extra retention for release bindings, yet does not add weight and does not influence flex in any way. Adds to enhanced edge grip. Sidewall bevel: sidewalls are angled to further protect the top sheet from dings and chips.

Edge bevel: 1-degree base and 88-degree side bevel:

Great for carving with ease. These aggressive edges are great for ice and lay it over carving.

Reviews

  1. Frank –

    Well here is my review of the Summit GroovN 106 LE with the JerryFeet and Technine Pro DS bindings!
    I don’t have one…….
    Backstory….. My family loves to ski but my wife secretly hates it. She is in her late 30s, we have 5 kids, and her anxiety destroys any pleasure in her skiing when she wears her long skis (but she does it for us). She is constantly struggling with crossing them up, getting back up when falling, and being unable to control them.

    I went on 2 runs with the GroovNs before I told her to just try them out. That was the end of it. They now belong to her. She constantly talked about how much easier they were to turn. Her fear of crossing the tips at speed and killing herself was slowly going away. By all means, she wasn’t screaming down the hill but she was at least enjoying some greens and blues while being a lot less stressed. She spent around two hours on them and her confidence on them was greater than what she gathered in 2 years of long skis.

    I would recommend these to any adult skier just starting out in a heartbeat! The ability to control them, from my eyes looking at her, was second to none!
    5 stars!

    I called Summit to get advice on the right skiboards. The person was very knowledgable and helpful. Customer support is outstanding. I have purchased Skiboards 4 times over the years with Summit. Great products and great support.

  3. Naz –

    I thought I loved my Buzz 99’s but these are a game changer after one time skiiing! That was on the East Coast, can’t wait to take them out west next month in all that pow!
