All new for 23/24, Vital 98 pays tribute to its predecessor by improving its precise, stable and award-winning platform. We have further optimized its weight/resistance ratio and tightened the turn of the turn for more engagement when you need it most. By slightly increasing the rigidity of the tip of the vital and widening the running surface, the stability at speed has been improved. The inclusion of our flat spiral creates a more homogeneous flex of the spatula with the tail, while the Algal Core and the Algal Wall reduce weight and vibrations. A new tail block improves the retention of the tail clip and easily pierces the stubborn layers of the snowy mantle - a considerable advantage for the construction of anchoring or the jab kick turns in steep terrain.

• Lengths: 159, 165, 171, 177, 183, 189 cm

• Dimensions (TIP-WAIST-TAV): 126-98-117 mm

• Radius: 19.5 m @ 183 cm

• Weight (per ski): 1750 g @ 183 cm

• Flex: Progressive - The Tail Begins with a Medium to Stiff Flex, Transitioning to Stiff through The Mid Section and Decreasing Gradually Toward the Tip. This flex pattern creates a solid platform for stability in the tail and underfoot while the medium tip flex handles crud and variable conditions with ease. Due to its narrower width, the torsional Stiffness of the Vital 98 is the Strongest, Allowing for Optimal Edge Hold and Stability in Variable Conditions.
