Product Info
For the daily piste prowler the DPS Wailer 99 Hybrid Skis always delivers. Offering a narrower waist for quicker edge to edge engagement and off piste performance this ski truly knows how to grip it allowing you to rail or 'wail' the fastest and smoothest GS turns on hard snow. While offering phenomenal hard pack performance, the Tip Rocker still allows your ski to perform in powder and deeper varieties of snow. Whether it's a spring slush day or a groomer / mogul day in the resort, we recommend the DPS Wailer 99 Hybrid Skis as your tool of choice.
Product Details
Rocker Type
460 mm / Camber / 368 mm
Sidecut
Paddle Tech – Tapered, flatter sidecut section that blends at the contact points. It's the special ingredient that drives a uniquely smooth and intuitive sense of turn shape.
Core
Hybrid Fiberglass + Carbon + Bamboo Construction – Hybrid skis have a damper ride thanks to the bamboo. Carbon fiber stringers and fiberglass keep the ski lively and torsionally stiff for control on firm snow.
Poplar Core with Bamboo Stringers
Laminates
Full Length Carbon Stringers
Triaxial Glass
Polyamide Topsheet
Sidewalls
Full ABS Sidewalls – Full-length vertical sidewalls from tip to tail to deliver optimized edge grip, precision, balance, and power.
Base
Graphite World Cup Race Base – Fastest bases, because speed is good! No die-cut or colored bases that cause durability and speed issues.
Edges
Wide Profile Rockwell 48c Steel Edges
Urethane Top Edge Reinforcement and Dampening System
Binding Compatibility
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

Terrain:

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:

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.

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.

- Core/Laminates: Bamboo, Carbon, Wood

Tail Type:
Partial Twin Tip
More
Tail Type
Partial Twin Tip Partial twin tip skis have a tail that is turned up, but not as much as the tip. This gives you the ability to ski backwards and back out of tight spaces, but these skis are mainly designed to ski forward.
