Balsa is an exceptionally light hardwood. Laminated vertically together divided by strips of woven flax (also known as linseed), to provide additional torsional and compression strength. Lighter than Poplar/Ash but more expensive.
Borrowed from world-cup race skis, two different radii on the one ski - a tighter radius forward of the boot centre coupled with a 20% larger sidecut behind - increases the edge-to-edge responsiveness so you can carve short turns whilst retaining high speed stability and control through the tail of the ski.
Our standard core material. Poplar is a medium-weight, damp, vibration-absorbing softwood. Ash is a heavier hardwood that compliments the Poplar by increasing stiffness, responsiveness and providing a solid base for the binding screws.
A traditional manufacturing method that provides strength, durability, good grip and edge hold. Sidewalls protect the sides of the sandwich core, and increase a ski's torsional stiffness and therefore edge control and pop. Added micro-cap increases the durability of the topsheet.
Blended transition zones" use complex curve geometries where both positive/negative sidecut and where rocker/camber meet to make turn initiation fluid yet the whole ski more stable and controllable in all conditions.
Whether it’s dumping outside or springtime slush, the prodigy 4.0 is the perfect answer for riders who want to let it loose every damn day. a 112mm waist nails the perfect width, being wide enough for the deep days, burly enough in choppy snow and manoeuvrable enough on hard-pack. A poplar/ash core bodyguarded by two full layers of eco-friendly flax fibres keep the ski strong yet responsive, in the air and on the white stuff. A progressive, directional twin tip shape, surf zone technology and generous rocker provide float and a surfy feel in the pow, always ensuring that you can slash that wind lip or butter that stamped-out take off with ease. Built to be playful when jibbing yet solid when charging lines and stomping huge airs, it’s no wonder the prodigy 4.0 is johnny collinson’s favourite everyday weapon of choice.
