ITALIAN CRAFTMANSHIP AND GREEN

Our skis are built using cutting edge processing tools (like numerical control machines) and craftsman assembly and finishing methods. Human being is the center of the process following each phase of construction with endless quality check to obtain the best performances of each blended components of the ski structure. Ours partners on-site production of all the skis, give us the total control of each step of the construction allowing the reduction of waste and energy as well as material optimization. The skis are designed and built with particular attention at natural and recycled materials. Our construction philosophy would be an inspiration for a more respectful approach of the nature for all practicing and experiencing our sport.

Sustainable approach

On-Site Production:

Promotion of Italian Craftsmanship
who favors artisanal method.

Optimization of Materials and Energies and Limiting Waste:

Cutting each element to the right size and accurately weighing the resin.

Use of Natural wood for core and sidewall. Use of Flax fiber:

Offers remarkable properties, biobased and recyclable.

Topsheets made of re-use of
rubber gum at the end of its life.

An effective solution that avoid
waste and the use of “new”
material.

Flax fiber

The most rigid of natural fibers. Low Density than fiberglass.

Consumes little water, does not require irrigation, needs few pesticide and does not release defoliants into the water.

Lower environmental footprint than fiberglass.

Superior vibration absorption compared to carbon and glass fibers: it gives to the ski greater comfort on snow, in particular on hard snow.

Recycled rubber gum finish

17 million tonnes of end-of-life tires are thrown away, incinerated or buried.

An interesting recycling opportunity to recycle rubber. Durable, resistance even with an intensive use.

Offers unique characteristics: Elasticity, flexibility, strength and density.

Compact and resistant with a soft finish.
