The redesigned Mantra 88 refines a proven platform into something more dynamic, more accessible, and more responsive underfoot. Sitting in the sweet spot of mid-width performance, it delivers the edge precision of a frontside ski with the adaptability to handle variable snow and off-piste terrain.
Updates to the 3D Radius Sidecut bring a tighter center radius, making short turns feel quicker and more intuitive while preserving the calm, composed feel of longer arcs. The ski transitions smoothly between turn shapes, whether you're carving firm morning corduroy or navigating mixed afternoon conditions.
Repositioned fibers in the Tailored Carbon Tips heighten agility and tip engagement, giving the shovel a crisp, energetic feel at initiation. The Tailored Titanal Frame, scaled precisely to each ski length, balances damping and maneuverability—longer skis emphasize stability and power, while shorter lengths feel nimble and accessible.
A Multilayer Woodcore anchors the build with a blend of hardwood for strength and lighter wood for agility, wrapped in Full Sidewall ABS for consistent edge grip. Finished with a durable P-Tex 2100 base and factory-ready Serial Finish, the Mantra 88 is prepared for immediate, confident performance.
