DPS Skis Koala 118 Foundation Ski

Why We Like The Koala 118 Foundation Ski

When we need to slash wind lips, air cliffs, and stomp tricks in deep snow we click into the DPS Koala 118 Foundation Ski. This ski uses a stable and floaty 118mm waist to inspire confidence and keep us on top of the snow, while the fairly symmetrical rocker profile ensures we can land cleanly both forward and switch. Finally the beefy laminates and durable core set no limits on just how big we can go.
