Updated with new graphics for 2024, Line's Blade Optic series replaced their famous Sickday freeride skis but have a very different character and a much higher level of performance. Line have designed these skis combining new concepts and technologies they had initially developed for the revolutionary Blade and Vision series skis. The Blade Optics share the chevron-shaped full width Gas-Pedal Metal laminate with the Blade, and extends this with a continuous central tapered spine that extends to the tip and tail. This gives the Blade Optics the awesome edge grip of the Blade with a longer radius and more solid flexing core that excels at high speed fall line skiing. This design gives these skis amazing stabiity at speed and the power to handle slush, crude and chopped-up conditions with ease.
There are four models in the Blade Optic series with waists 92, 96, 104 and 114 mm. The Blade Optic 96,104 & 114 mm have the Gas-Pedal Metal laminate and are the skis to consider, taking into account your skiing style and the terrain and snow conditions. With the wider Blade Optic 104 and 114 models, Line have produced worthy succesors to the legendary Line Mothership, the freeride ski that blew our minds over 10 years ago.
Made for skiers who will be spending most of the time skiing harder snow conditions or mainly on piste, the Blade Optic 96 has a very practical 129-96-119 mm shape, 18 m radius. Offering tenacious grip on hard snow and a powerful smooth ride in all snow conditions, the Blade Optic 96 will have you running laps faster than you believed possible.
