The Pagoda Tour 100 RP is perfect for backcountry skiers who get out and amongst the mountains no matter the conditions. Featuring the updated Pagoda Tour construction and the new Third Rail technology, the playful yet predictable nature of the Pagoda Tour 100 offers plenty of suspension for slashing, drifting, and pressing that is unprecedented for skis in this waist width and weight category.

Skier Type BC skiers who want a versatile option for using whatever the conditions. They'll accept some extra weight from the width so that the have a bigger platform for when the snow is deeper or just requires a bigger ski to through it than some of skinny, uphill focussed models that struggle in heavy or choppy stuff. Overview Shape The RP shape is both surfy and intuitive. The tapered tip and tail initiate turns effortlessly and allows them to be exited with clean carves or easily washed out. 100mm provides impressive float when you find soft snow, working with the shape to allow the ski to flow through turns in powder and keep a fun. surfy feel even when the snow isn't deep or you're on groomers. The turny 15m radius feels great on firmer snow and helps create the flowing feel in softer conditions. Rocker Rocker at the tip and tail equates to 45% rocker. Sounds like a lot but it works perfectly with the shaping. The camber underfoot makes the most of the carbon construction and playful 15m radius. Core Ash has aerospace grade foam stringers interspersed and Paulownia overlaid, creating a light buy strong core that has plenty of life and response. Third Rail Technology uses bio-based Algal Technology to improve stability. Construction The updated Pagoda Tour construction benefits from meticulous attention to detail across the entire R+D process, from sourcing materials to finding the most optimal ratios between them. DPS have introduced Algal sidewalls and Third Rail Technology that are approximately 68% bio-based content improving performance and product sustainability. Their proprietary carbon laminate provides power and energy that's balanced with an ash and paulownia wood species, and aerospace grade foam core. The final product is a construction, that encourages the skier to lap the skin track to their hearts content and enjoy the descent with the utmost confidence. Key Features RP Shaping The RP chassis started with the first Wailer 112 RP design that incorporated generous tip/tail rocker and taper. RP originally stood for 'Resort Powder', and the legend began. Its shape opens doors and makes truly versatile powder planing accessible to many. The RP's core shaping equation is impressive, 45% rocker merged with a 15m sidecut and means natural, intuitive skiing. Third Rail Technology Third Rail Technology uses bio-based Algal Technology to improve stability. EB tester's comments: Mark (Trainer) This is one of the most versatile tour skis I've been on. Not only is it light for it's dimensions it also rips the piste as well as it handles and floats in the off-piste too. I'm not usually a fan of "tour" skis, but these put a big smile on my face.

Ellis Brigham was born in 1933, the brainchild of Frederick Ellis Brigham, who set up business making cycling shoes and walking boots in a tiny 'two up, two down' building on the outskirts of Manchester.
After the war, as mountain walking and climbing became more and more popular, the shop began to sell ex-WD climbing equipment and Brigham's boots with their special nailing patterns became very sought after.
Fast forward almost 80 years and Ellis Brigham now has 24 shops across the UK and a leading website, making it the UK's premier retailer for ski hardware, mountaineering equipment and outdoor clothing.
