Foon Skis

<p>The Foon flagship ride goes everywhere from resort to backcountry, and skis everything from crud to corn, pow to pooh, hardpack to champagne. On the Tyfoon, the sidecut is optimized for easy turning without sacrificing stability. The base incorporates a long, early rise, active rocker that starts low in the shovel when the skis are loaded. A similar but more subtle tail rocker allows them to smear and carve while keeping all their stability. Every pair of Foons is handcrafted in Mount Currie, BC and is milled from a single piece of Coast Mountain yellow cedar. This tight-grained wood is unique in the way it absorbs vibration to provide a damp, stable ride. Unlike most wood core skis, Foon uses a kiln-dried, solid 2in. board rather than layers of glued strips. It allows the natural flex of the wood to transmit to the skier. Like a custom surfboard, Foon skis are hand-shaped and hand-built to optimize the sidecut, base profile and flex profile.</p><ul><li>Sandwich construction with 2 layers of triaxial fiberglass and 2 layers of yellow cedar with a Durasurf 4001 graphite black base</li><li>Yellow cedar core, made from a single board that's split in two to make a pair of identical cores.

Sandwich and combination construction is generally used for big freeride-style skis while the lighter structural cap type of construction is more commonly found on cross-country skis.
