The all new Sidewinder offers the best balance of performance, forgiveness and stability. This combination is achieved by utilizing our versatile Torsion Box Construction to create a performance focused all-mountain ski. A 74mm waist width, moderate sidecut, MOD Monic Technology and K2/MX Binding System deliver a highly versatile ski that will not only carve the groomers but will power through the soft snow and crud.
