RES is a large, convex elliptical arc that runs from boot center to tip taper, combined with a long, traditional radius in the tail. The goal is simple: create the best soft snow sidecut and shape available.
Solid platform underfoot, slightly stiffer tail, with a progressive flex into the tips. Similar to our Freeride Flex, but with a rounder platform designed for improved float and maneuverability in softer conditions.
The Cease & Desist has been pushing boundaries since year 1, and we’ve been running with it ever since. This ski was designed to be the ultimate big mountain powder ski, and earned a name that reminds us to keep pushing the envelope every day. We build them to take a beating with full length carbon fiber stringers, 100% bamboo core, and UHMW sidewall alongside the thickest bases & edges money can buy.
For 2020, we've kept the Cease & Desist true to its roots (no certified letter necessary) as a focused, inbounds powder charger with the versatility to be your everyday powder platform. Our Freeride Rocker shape, beefed up RES design (Billy Goat sidecut), and Tour Layup keep the skis light and maneuverable underfoot, while the the Asymmetrical Tip Taper (ATT) + Offset Tip Shape (OTS) maximize smearability in and out of turns in the deepest snow.
