Explore 80 Power Shift Ski + EL 10.0 GW binding makes learning smooth with easy flex and stable control
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I grabbed a pair of Explore 80s for some early-season resort laps and was surprised how forgiving yet responsive they felt. They made it easy to stay centered and linked turns without overthinking—perfect for building confidence without outgrowing the ski too fast."
Who It’s For
Beginner to Intermediate All-Mountain Skiers:
The Explore 80 is ideal for new skiers and those building confidence beyond the basics. With its forgiving flex and stable edge hold, it’s approachable for first-timers but offers enough performance to keep up as skills progress.
What It’s For
Learning and Resort Exploration:
Built for groomed runs and light off-trail detours, the Explore 80 supports progression in a wide range of conditions. Its rocker-camber blend makes turn initiation smooth and intuitive while providing enough grip and stability for steeper slopes and firmer snow.
Why We Like It
Confidence and Forgiveness in One Package:
We like the Explore 80 because it balances lightweight handling with reliable control. The Mono Woodcore and fiberglass reinforcement keep it stable without being heavy, while the Early Rise Rocker makes turns flow naturally. With included EL 10.0 GW bindings, it’s a ready-to-ride package that helps skiers spend more time improving and less time worrying.
