Rafiki means “friend” in Swahili and pays tribute to the trees that we plant in Kenya with Zawadisha. Indeed, this surfy pow slayer will be your best buddy when the snow flies. But don't let the powder skis title fool you. This pivoty and nimble ski will float you through Hokkaido deep drifts, twist through tight trees and bumps, and still carve a groomer with ease.

Details
✔️ Ample tips and waists provide a floaty ride, while pared-down tails make for quick release and instant control
✔️ Medium turn radius ensures easy turn initiation in many conditions, without comprising stability and control, especially at speed
✔️ Early-rise tip profile is a directional shape that pairs off-piste stability and soft snow performance with control
✔️ Rocker in the tips handles crud and bumps upfront and provides maximum float in the soft snow; slightly eased tails enhance control
✔️ Camber underfoot allows you to have full control on groomers
✔️ Sandwich construction with a full-width triaxial fiberglass layup
✔️ Blended wood core is composed of FSC certified poplar and birch that improves stability in firm and variable conditions
