XP 105 Positrack Ski - 2026

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I skied the XP 105 on a storm day in the woods and was blown away by the float. The wide tip kept me on top of soft snow, and the Positrack base gave me grip when climbing without ever messing with wax. The full metal edges felt solid when I pointed it downhill through variable snow. It’s the ski I trust when I want to break trail and explore where no tracks exist."

Who It’s For

Intermediate to Advanced Backcountry Skiers:

Best for skiers who want to leave the groomed trails behind. The XP 105 is for adventurous riders who prioritize float and control in soft snow, making it a fit for those who tour in glades, rolling backcountry hills, or deep, untracked terrain.

What It’s For

Deep Snow Touring and Off-Trail Exploration:

This ski is designed for ungroomed snowpack—whether you’re breaking trail through fresh powder, climbing ridgelines, or descending variable terrain. With its wide dimensions and metal edges, the XP 105 thrives in soft, unpredictable conditions where traditional Nordic skis fall short.

Why We Like It

Float, Grip, and Stability in One Package:

We like the XP 105 because it blends touring efficiency with the kind of stability we usually only find in alpine gear. The 105 mm tip floats in powder, the Positrack base eliminates waxing hassles, and the full-length edges make us confident on the downhill. Combined with its lightweight LDC core and Air Tip construction, it’s surprisingly agile for its size.
