Skitrab GARA PRO Ski Set + Bindings

The Skitrab GARA PRO is a racing ski designed for ski mountaineering competitions, tailored for expert-level athletes seeking precision, lightness, and reliability on both hard and varied snow conditions. Weighing in at 685 g at 155 cm, it boasts remarkably low weight for a competition ski featuring a 14-layer construction. It is firmly geared toward race course performance, with geometry and materials engineered to meet the demands of ski mountaineering races, even in changing snow conditions. It is designed for advanced skiers who want a reliable, precise ski that performs consistently on both skis.

A sidecut profile designed for grip and maneuverability

The Skitrab GARA PRO features dimensions of 92/64/78 mm with a waist width of 64 mm, making it a narrow ski clearly geared toward grip on hard snow and the compact surfaces typical of racing. The 21.3-meter turning radius at 155 cm promotes wide, stable turns, ideal for long downhill lines in competition. The tapered tail features a tighter radius, allowing for a crisp and responsive turn exit. The longer tip and tail increase the contact area, improving maneuverability in deep powder or on uneven snow without compromising performance on hard-packed slopes.

A hybrid profile combining camber and controlled rocker

The GARA PRO’s profile features full camber underfoot, ensuring solid grip and direct power transfer through the turn. The tip features a slight rocker that facilitates turn initiation and reduces snagging in variable snow conditions, while the flat tail ensures a controlled turn exit. This hybrid profile, referred to as “Tip & Tail” in the product specifications, offers predictable performance in race conditions while maintaining a degree of versatility on uneven snow.

A 14-layer construction for stiffness and lightness

The design of the Skitrab GARA PRO is based on several complementary technical elements that account for its competitive performance:

• A honeycomb aramid core reinforced with ash wood: the combination of aramid fiber—used in aerospace—and ash wood provides structural lightness and vibration absorption.
• High-modulus carbon cage (3K): This ultra-fine-weave carbon sleeve provides high torsional stiffness for precise power transfer.
• 52 HRC steel edges: a high-hardness treated steel that ensures grip and durability on hard snow and ice.
• Strategic bridge between the edges: enhances the overall durability and protects the structure against repeated impacts.
• Paired cores: Each pair is selected during manufacturing to ensure perfect symmetry between the two skis, guaranteeing consistent performance.

A performance-oriented race base and Italian craftsmanship

The GARA PRO is manufactured in Bormio, Italy, with high-density racing bases whose finish ensures speed and consistency in all snow conditions. The ski’s predictable torsional flex allows the athlete to read and anticipate the ski’s behavior in all circumstances—a decisive advantage in racing situations where consistency is key.

The Skitrab GARA PRO is designed for expert competitive alpine skiers seeking a reliable, lightweight, and technically advanced racing ski. Available in 155 and 162 cm, it meets the needs of athletes based on their body type and racing style, with consistent geometry and high-performance materials across all sizes.
