Athletic and functional, these featherweight friends are designed for long days of ski touring and hut-to-hut adventures. Of course their weight is the hallmark of their personality: a poplar and paulownia wood core and less material in the sidewall add up to just 2580g per pair.

The ascent was a joy – you find yourself cruising effortlessly up the skin track, reserving energy for the descent or days to come.

Dynafit have nailed the compromise between weight and performance on the Dynafit Tour 88 W, with a ski that can reliably handle any conditions, negotiate tight spots and command an extra springy jump turn.

At 88mm underfoot they transition from hard-pack to chunkier conditions with ease, making these a great choice for long adventures when you really can only take one ski with you. Of course they don’t perform like a race ski but there is a certain confidence and stability in their turns that makes them a winning choice.
