The Outline is extremely surfy feeling thanks to the convex tips and tails and ample rocker, while still having a long effective edge courtesy of minimal taper. For a ski this big, it carves really nicely, with cues clearly taken from the Pescado. The flex is significantly stiffer than the Sir Francis Bacon, but these are still far from a stiff ski. I only got one or two soft snow turns on these and on hard snow, they are obviously a big ski. So obviously, I didn't get to ski them at their best, but overall, they just felt a little damp/lifeless to me. You COULD flex them but they weren't super soft/playful and they didn't give a lot of energy popping out of butters. I prefer the softer more lively Sir Francis Bacon, but these are still a great powder jib option, and easily light enough to tour on too. I'd consider them a true powder ski rather than something versatile though. - Twig
Manufacturer's Description: Equipped with Convex Base Technology to open up new possibilities in turn shape, the LINE Outline Skis are the ultimate development of freestyle powder ski design. Carve, drift, and plane in any snow condition. Building on years of twin-tip ski design, the LINE Outline is the penultimate collaboration between Eric Pollard and LINE Skis.
