Description
The DPS Foundation Wailer 106 utilizes a design tactic that builds the ski from underfoot outward to the tip and tail, rather than sandwiching materials on a pre-made mold. This, according to DPS, creates a smooth-riding ski across the entire Foundation line. This ski, specifically, features a 106 mm waist, rocker-camber-rocker profile (with minimal amounts in the tail), a tapered sidecut and a bamboo-poplar core that all translate to an everyday ski that’s as balanced as a nicely aged Scotch. Mike Filander compared its skiing style to “pairing a fine wine with a filet mignon—all upper class style.” Pinkies out, the Foundation Wailer 106 is pure luxury.
