Tested and proven time and time again as the ultimate high performance ski for all conditions. The Recon fits right in between the Crossfire and Xplorer in the line with its 78 mm waist width making it the ultimate 50/50 ski for expert skiers. The Recon blends the perfect amount of waist and tip width creating a platform that floats in softer snow and crud and combines a generous sidecut for hard snow performance.
