Product Info
These days it's increasingly difficult for skiers to resign themselves to a quiver of one--unless that quiver happens to consist of the 4FRNT KYE 95 Skis. Solid camber makes the KYE 95s stable at high speeds and on hardpack, while rocker in the tip and tails lends maneuverability in soft snow and spring crud. Wide enough to handle fresh snow yet nimble enough to take on bumped up bowls, the 4FRNT KYE 95 Skis impress again and again with their utilitarian, all-mountain versatility. Plus, thanks to the presence of burly beech and 4FRNT's Vibe Veil tech you'll score the torsional rigidity you crave to take these puppies off-piste and slay that big mountain line you've had your eye on all season.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Camber with Rocker
Core
Hi-Lite Core – A blend of Poplar and Beech or Ash make Hi-Lite cores snappy and lightweight with enough substance to drive wider skis in soft snow.
Laminates
Vibe Veil Technology – Involves an elastic membrane situated in the tips of 4FRNT rockered skis that dramatically reduces chatter and weak edge hold, the result of extended negative radius profiles in ski tips when used in varied to firm snow conditions. 4FRNT discovered this material from the marine industry where seacraft designers line the interior of boat hulls to soften the compounding blows of rough seas, all the way to public transportation where automotive engineers dampened the high pitch vibrations found in buses, light rails, and trams. All 2015/16 skis featuring VibeVeil have a transparent window logo highlighting the very material used in each ski. You can find Vibeveil TM in the Renegade, Raven, Hoji, Hoji W, Devastator, Aretha, and the all-new Kye series.

Terrain
All-Mountain All-mountain skis are designed to handle anything you throw at them including powder, ice, groomers, steeps, heavy snow, and everything in between, but they aren’t necessarily a master of any one terrain. If you’re only going to own one ski to do it all, this is what you want. All-mountain skis generally have what we call mid-fat waists that range from 80-110 mm.
- Skis: No Bindings

Ability Level:
Intermediate-Advanced

Ability Level
Intermediate-Advanced Whether you’re a progressing intermediate exploring new runs and terrain, or an accomplished rider seeking new thrills, the majority of skiers and snowboarders fall into this level. Intermediate to advanced skis and snowboards may be somewhat wider or stiffer than beginner-intermediate skis and snowboards, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Intermediate to advanced boots and bindings range from softer flexing freestyle options to stiffer choices built for stability at speed.

Rocker Type:
Rocker/Camber/Rocker
More
Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber/Rocker Rocker/Camber/Rocker skis have the playfulness and float of a rockered ski as well as the added edge hold of a cambered ski. The contact points on skis with this profile are closer towards the middle of the ski than a fully cambered ski, but still not underfoot. The cambered midsection provides a longer effective edge on hardpack, increasing edge hold and stability, while the rockered tip and tail provide floatation in deeper snow and allow the ski to initiate and release from turns easier.

Turning Radius:
Medium

Turning Radius
Medium 17-22 m radius is best for all-mountain and park & pipe.
- Core/Laminates: Wood

Tail Type:
Full Twin Tip
More
Tail Type
Full Twin Tip Desinged to allow you to ski backwards, full twin tips are found primarily on park & pipe skis and freestyle powder skis. More and more, we are seeing twin tips on all-mountain skis of all abilities, as it makes it a little easier to get around, and for the most part does not inhibit forward skiing.
