A fairly versatile, all-mountain freeride ski with a rocker profile focused on maneuverability

Intro
Kaizen is about all-mountain freeride, in true American style — a ski you can take anywhere in all conditions, from groomers to deep pow. Compared to the Kaizen 105, tested in this issue of the guide, the 100 has a much deeper rocker profile (which up 'til recently DPS called the RP, to differentiate it from their directional skis, known as C2s). With 5% more rocker and a 15-meter sidecut radius, this ski is more focused on maneuverability, while maintaining a good dose off control even on hard, morning terrain or corn.

Intro
Safety, a culture of doubt
Beyond the basic definition, there’s nothing as variable as snow conditions and the human psyche when under emotional stress. That's why, after purchasing the right self-rescue kit and airbag backpack, it’s paramount you do your research, train, scrutinize your decisions and, if necessary, opt for plan B. And, at least for now, don’t rely on artificial intelligence.
