Black Diamond Impulse Ti 98 Skis - 2027 Midnight Blue, 175cm

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I spent a full patrol season on the Impulse Ti 98 Skis, bouncing between groomers in the morning and blown in powder stashes by afternoon, and the Titanal sheet kept them locked in at speed without feeling heavy underfoot. Rockered tip and tail let me smear through chop, but the camber underfoot still held an edge on firm, chalky traverses. They've become my everyday work ski for a reason."Storm clouds clear off the ridge, and the Impulse Ti 98 Skis from Black Diamond are already strapped in for whatever the mountain decided to serve up overnight. Drop into a chalky, technical line up top, then let the tips float as the snow softens lower down, and these skis never ask you to choose between control and play. This is the kind of ski that turns a mixed bag conditions day into your best lap of the season. That range comes from a build made to handle both ends of the mountain. A sheet of Titanal adds dampness and stability at speed, so chattery hardpack and blown out chop both smooth out underfoot, while the poplar core and pre-preg fiberglass layup keep the swing weight light enough for a full day of laps. Full ABS sidewalls and a flat top construction add torsional stiffness for power through the turn, and the moderate 98mm waist keeps things nimble whether you're carving groomers or breaking trail through fresh snow.
