Peak Skis 98 By Dav

Peak Skis

Light but stable. A paradox? Maybe. Impossible? Not for the wizards at Peak Skis. In the world of skiing, it often seems impossible to find a lightweight ski that will still hold up in varied terrain. Enter the 98 by Dav, developed with iconic adventure skier Chris Davenport. Best suited for a rider who craves resort hikes, backcountry day missions or just a nimble, stable and responsive ski, the 98 by Dav sounds like a perfect marriage. This unisex model is here to be skied fast. The 98 by Dav is for those seeking a bit more agility and mobility. It still hugs a mean arc, is proficient in bumps and crud, and won’t let you down in fresh snow. However, the Peak by Dav skis have less metal than their Peak by Bode counterparts, meaning you’ll easily engage a turn, but you won’t throw your back out as you shlep up the hike toward stacked fresh powder. Tester and Jackson Hole local ripper Christian Johansen gave it a stellar score, noting it’s a, “super fun, agile ski. Carved like a dream and engaged turns easily and efficiently.”
