Light weight but rock-solid, the 4FRNT Raven Skis are the choice touring ski in 4FRNT's line. With carbon in the tip and tails they will snap from turn to turn when you get in a pinch but still remain stable at high speeds when you open it up at the end of a run. Weighing in at only 1900 grams, these skis go unnoticed on the way up but are unforgettably amazing on the way down. Boasting a versatile, dual radius sidecut and ReflectTech based rocker, the Raven slices through variable conditions and excels in the pristine ones. Travel uphill and downhill with ease and elation with the 4FRNT Raven Skis.
Flat Camber
Reflect Tech – Reflect Technology was dreamed up by Eric Hjorleifson as a way to make rocker and sidecut work together. In the past, full rocker profiles had a negative impact on the ability of the ski to edge consistently, causing the tips to hook and the tails to wash out while the ski was on edge. With Reflect Tech, the Rocker radius and the sidecut radius are matched, to allow the ski to edge smoothly, and create predictable carving in all conditions. It virtually eliminates tip hook, as the ski will engage smoothly along its whole length, and still gives you the float and pivotablility of a fully rockered ski.
Ski Touring Shape – The act of man conquering mountains without the use of machines.
Asymmetrical – A directional shape that gives the ski a more consistent feel.
Tip / Tail Taper – The neutral sidecut length at the tip and tails' widest dimension.
Indi-Block Core – Indigenous maple laminates paired with aspen center delivers a stable, even flex along the length of the ski.
Tip and Tail Carbon Fiber 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.
