The Line Poisson is a freeride ski designed for experienced riders looking to push the limits of the mountain without sacrificing precision. With a waist width of 110 mm, it offers generous float in fresh snow while maintaining dynamic handling on varied terrain. Its appeal lies in a rare balance: combining the power of sharp carving with the freedom of snowboarding, allowing you to carve, slash, pivot, and float depending on the conditions. This ski is designed for aggressive and creative skiers who want to explore the mountain in all its dimensions, from open backcountry to technical lines.

A freeride line designed for creativity and power

The Line Poisson skis are part of Line’s Concept collection, a line dedicated to alternative and inspired approaches to snow sports. Its freeride design is built around unapologetic versatility: it excels in groomed snow, open slopes, and creative lines where the skier alternates between commitment and playfulness. Designed to combine the characteristics of the Blade and Sakana models, it brings together precise handling and freedom of movement in a single ski. Its preferred terrain includes varied backcountry, open slopes, and natural play areas where you can slash, pivot, and take off-balance turns.

Generous dimensions for effective float

With dimensions of 144-110-133 mm (tip, waist, tail), the Skis Line Poisson features a wide, balanced profile designed to float in powder without weighing down the ride. The 18.5-meter turning radius (measured on the 186 cm model) corresponds to a medium-long radius, facilitating wide, powerful turns—ideal for sweeping arcs on open slopes as well as dynamic edging in narrow passages. The wide 133 mm tail also facilitates controlled slides and pivots—essential characteristics of creative backcountry skiing.

Gas Pedal Metal Construction and Technical Reinforcements

The Line Poisson’s construction is based on several technical elements that account for its power transfer and stability. Here are the key components of its structure:

• Aspen/Paulownia core: a lightweight combination that reduces overall weight while maintaining good shock absorption in varied snow conditions.
• Gas Pedal Metal (Zoned Titanal): a strategically placed titanal reinforcement designed to enhance power transfer and stability at speed.
• Unidirectional Carbon Fibers: These add responsiveness and liveliness without adding weight to the ski, promoting a direct response to the skier’s inputs.
• Thick-Cut Sidewalls: thick sidewalls that reinforce lateral stiffness and improve edge grip on hard snow.
• Fatty Base (1.7 mm sintered) and Fatty Edges (2.5 × 2.2 mm): a combination designed for durability and efficient glide, even on abrasive terrain.

Step-Tail and classic camber: a hybrid profile that balances control and freedom

The Line Poisson’s profile features classic camber underfoot, ensuring solid grip on hard snow and direct power transfer during aggressive turns. This camber is paired with a “Step-Tail” tail design—a surf-inspired cutout that lightens the tail and naturally facilitates sliding, pivoting, and quick transitions. This combination of the precision of the camber and the freedom of the Step-Tail gives the ski a dual-character performance: precise when the skier commits, playful when they ease off. The unidirectional shape reinforces the ski’s freeride orientation, without compromising on bidirectional twin-tip-style performance.

The Skis Line Poisson is primarily designed for experienced alpine skiers who are serious about freeriding and want a ski capable of adapting to changing conditions, from deep powder to slushy snow. Available in lengths of 172, 179, and 186 cm, it allows riders to adjust the level of float and maneuverability according to their size and style. Its technical construction, combined with a bold, creative design, makes it a logical choice for anyone looking to ski with precision and expressiveness on all types of mountain terrain.
