Deep Dive: Big Mountain Performance
The Vanguard Ti skis are designed for skiers who thrive in diverse backcountry terrain and variable snow conditions. With a 118 mm underfoot width, flat camber and directional twin tip shape, these skis deliver a stable and responsive platform for advanced skiing and deep powder. Whether you are exploring Revelstoke, Jackson Hole or Hokkaido, the Vanguard Ti excels in open terrain while remaining agile for tight backcountry lines.
Thanks to a poplar and ash wood core supported by Titanal metal and fiberglass, these skis offer a strong and damp ride without feeling sluggish. The 4x4 Design Concept, which integrates a 4Radius sidecut and 4Radius rockers, enhances maneuverability, control and responsiveness. This balanced design provides flex for landings, rebound in turn transitions and control in challenging snow.
4x4 Design Concept: Precision and Control
The Vanguard Ti 4x4 Design Concept refines edge engagement and turning precision. With four radii built into the sidecut, you can confidently engage and hold your edge longer, make short, quick turns or wider arcs as needed.
The 4Radius rocker tips and tails improve turn initiation, reduce drag and support higher speeds. This design allows smooth transitions and control, whether carving through powder or navigating mixed terrain. It makes the Vanguard Ti a versatile ski for freeriders who want stability, response and agility in a wide range of conditions.
