The Fastforward excels on groomers, firm snow and icy conditions thanks to its stiff core and classic shape. Standing proudly as a semi-directional, medium-radius ski, The Fastforward delivers a thrilling and precise carving experience akin to driving a high-end sports car. While it’s designed to tackle the most demanding frontside conditions with an exacting and quick platform, it doesn’t demand as much from the rider as other skis in its class. The tried and true combination of a robust maple core, sandwiched between two sheets of Titanal, results in explosive energy throughout the turn. The metal layers also add an impressive amount of damping while significantly boosting torsional rigidity for a powerful ride.
Further refining The Fastforward’s smooth character is a full height UHWM sidewall, which reduces vibration and increases durability. Under the hood, the maple wood core delivers impressive snap out of carves and supreme stability at speed. Of course, a ski’s core is no good without the right shape to accompany it. Camber underfoot makes the ski feel lively and responsive. At 92 mm in the waist, it delivers hip-dropping carves and lightning-quick edge transfer in the bumps. An extra-thick edge and high-performance base greatly heighten speed performance while reducing the chance of core shots and blown edges. Furthermore, J Skis keeps these sticks exclusive, collaborating with world-renowned artists for unique, limited-edition designs. If you’re looking to crush the firm conditions of the East Coast or seeking a dedicated beast for the frontside, wherever you may ski, The Fastforward may be the one for you.
