Conquer Any Descent with the Locator 96! ❄️
The biggest descents ask a lot from your equipment. You’ll need tenacious edge hold and dependable stability for billy goating through no-fall zones while maintaining enough float to surf high-speed turns through creamy pow and perfect corn. The Locator 96 covers all these bases, which is no small feat. The 96 mm waist quickly gets up on edge and bites hard on even the iciest sidehills, all at a weight that’s low enough for the biggest objectives on your tick list. The blended rocker lines make the 96 a versatile, confident performer in a variety of conditions from meadow skipping in hero snow to traversing refrozen sastrugi in the high peaks.

TECHNOLOGY
1.7 LIGHTWEIGHT EDGE
Light and strong, this heat-treated edge minimally affects the feel of the ski to ensure a snappy, lightweight feel.
CARBON REINFORCEMENT
Carbon appliation to provide excellent energy rebound.
TI BINDING DAMPENER
Below the binding, a sandwich of rubber and Titanal works to reduce vibration that otherwise chatters into your boots and shortens your day. The extra damping lets you ski bell-to-bell.
COMP SERIES BASE
Sintered UHMW polyethylene with added carbon creates our fastest base without sacrificing durability.
