LINE Blade Optic 96 Ski

LINE BLADE OPTIC 96 SKI

The Line Blade Optic 96 is a brand new ski for the 22/23 season, and it’s quite good. Line has done a nice job bringing some DNA in from the Line Blade and packaging it into something more all mountain capable. At 96mm underfoot there isn’t a whole lot of terrain this ski can’t tackle confidently. The profile and stiffness of the ski makes it feel more at home up on edge and on hard pack but the tails are easy enough to release if you want to get a little adventurous through bumps or tighter terrain. It floats just well enough to handle some softer snow and the power that is available in this ski make it a great choice in some heavier, choppier snow. Even though this ski does offer good all mountain versatility it’s built for a more powerful skiing style and it likes to be on groomers.
