The Loken has undergone a redesign for 2019 but the name still lives up to its reputation. The Loken has never been scared of moving quickly. While the Loken features a long but subtle rocker in both tip and tail, there is a hint of camber underfoot. This combo offers large edge contact as you rail the ski throughout a turn, to provide the desired stability on hardpack, yet keeps you afloat when the snow piles up. The 99mm width can be the one-ski quiver to charge your local resort while the 107mm will provide some extra float for hunting those pow stashes.
