Stranger Ski - 2025

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"The Stranger is way more fun than I expected—it loves to carve but still has that loose, surfy feel. The edgeless tip makes it super easy to slash and pivot, and the springboard tail pops you out of turns with energy. It’s like a carving ski that decided to get playful in the park."

Who It’s For

Intermediate to Advanced All-Mountain Freestyle Skiers:

The Stranger 100 is for skiers who want a ski that blurs the line between carving and freestyle. Ideal for riders who want to arc energetic turns on groomers but still slash, butter, and play with terrain in a freestyle-inspired way.

What It’s For

Creative All-Mountain Skiing with Carve-Ready Response:

With a 100mm waist, camber underfoot, and rocker at both ends, the Stranger thrives on firm groomers, mixed snow, and the park. Its short turn radius encourages playful arcs, while the edgeless tip and springboard tail keep it loose and fun when exploring creative lines.

Why We Like It

Carving Power with a Surfy Freestyle Edge:

We like the Stranger 100 because it gives us both stability and creativity in one ski. The poplar and ash core dampens vibrations while keeping the ride poppy, AR75 sidewalls balance grip and maneuverability, and the springboard tail rebounds energy through every turn. It’s a ski that lets us carve, slash, and play without compromise.
