Summit-Rocker-Camber-Graphic

Summit Sk8 96 cm Rocker Camber Skiboards have symmetrical twin tips (for forward and backward riding). The tip-to-tail Northern Birch/poplar wood core provides a super smooth flex, allowing you to truly enjoy your ride every time, coupled with the wide body construction and fast sintered graphite bases that offer surprising speed. The durable 3D Carbonium topsheet protects the skiboards while giving the graphics extra depth and clarity. They look even better in person.

RECOMMENDED FOR: Beginning to intermediate riders. These are among the best skiboards to learn on, have immediate fun on the slopes, and yet be able to advance to more challenging levels very quickly.

GREAT FOR: groomed runs, hardpack, fresh powder, moguls, and park terrain.

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 96 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 is added for not only extra strength and impact resistance, but 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, floatation 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 allows the sharp graphics to show through in all their detail. Includes a UV protective layer. Carbon Layer – adds enhanced stability, edge grip, and speed. 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 layover carving.

Reviews

  1. Jonathan D. –

    Great all-around mountain ski! Edges are super sharp and carve great. Get tons of compliments at the mountains. Super fast shipping. Skiing in the east, baby!

  2. Megan Petersen –

    This is an epic skiboard for someone going from skating to snow! They power through powder, are easy to maneuver, and are super fun in the park terrain! The Sk8 96 is a bit wider, I think that makes them easier to take around all-mountain. I’m a bowl skater on aggressive inline skates and so stoked to have a winter sport!
