The Ski
Our daily driver.
The Kanso 106 is 106 underfoot, built to handle whatever the day turns into: groomers, leftovers, trees, features and the surprise pow morning you didn’t plan for. Handbuilt in the USA in small batches.
If most of your season is deep days and you want real float, the Meraki 112 is the better ski for you. If you spend your winter on firm snow and steep lines, look at the Sabr 100. Enter anyway. We’ll talk you through it if you win.
