Koala 118 Foundation Ski delivers freestyle float, pop, and playful power for powder-filled days
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I had a blast on the Koala 118—whether it was sending cliffs or buttering through pow, it felt stable and fun. The wide waist keeps it afloat, while the carbon reinforcement gives it a lively snap. It’s one of the few skis that feels equally at home stomping tricks and charging deeper snow."
Who It’s For
Advanced Freestyle and Powder Riders:
Designed for skiers who blend freeride and freestyle, looking to send big airs, spin tricks, and stomp landings in deep snow. Best for aggressive, playful skiers who want stability without losing creativity.
What It’s For
Freeride Powder and Freestyle Play:
With a 118mm waist and rocker/camber/rocker profile, the Koala 118 thrives in storm-day powder, sidecountry drops, and natural hits. The short turn radius helps with quick pivots in trees and tight lines, while the raised tail supports butters, switch skiing, and landings.
Why We Like It
Big Ski Energy That Stays Playful:
We like the Koala 118 because it balances stability and freestyle fun. The poplar/bamboo core brings durability and a damp feel, while carbon stringers add the snap needed for spins and drops. The sintered World Cup base keeps speed high, and the twin-tip design means we can ride it as creatively as we want.
