Ubac 102 Ski - 2026

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I took the UBAC 102 on a weeklong hut trip and it hit the sweet spot—light enough on the skintrack, but powerful and confidence-inspiring on the way down. The 102 waist floats in powder, but it’s still nimble enough for variable snow and steeper terrain. It’s one of those skis that makes the climb worth every turn."

The UBAC 102 Ski is built for freeride-focused ski tourers who want to keep the climb efficient without compromising on downhill performance. With a 102mm waist, it strikes the balance between uphill agility and playful float, making it an ideal touring ski for powder hunters. Despite its lightweight paulownia wood core, reinforced with carbon and glass fibers, it stays torsionally stiff and stable at speed, encouraging us to push limits on big lines and deep snow days.

Durability is baked into the build with ABS sidewalls, thick edges, and reinforcing plates for impact resistance that holds up through long seasons in the mountains. A sintered base ensures fast glide across varied snow, while the half-cap sandwich construction adds grip and shock absorption for technical descents. Built in Europe under ZAG’s eco-focused Zagreen program, the UBAC 102 integrates recycled edges and base scraps for a sustainable finish. For backcountry skiers seeking a lightweight touring ski that brings freeride spirit to every descent, this ski delivers.
