Product Info
The Wailer 112 RPC was originally thought up on the hazy island of Jamaica, with the RPC standing for Rasta Powder Cruiser. Maybe it wasn't, but that's really not important. The DPS Wailer 112 RPC Hybrid Ski was made for those who can't resist the fall line. When the going gets steep, don't back off your line. An evolution of the Wailer 112 RP, the 112 RPC has a straighter sidecut for larger turning radius, lower tip and tail rocker profile, and enhanced dampening. The Hybrid construction provides unrivaled dampening, keeping the ski stable and tracking true while you're lining up the next air. For the skier who likes speed, but still wants a modern freeride shape, look no further than the DPS Wailer 112 RPC.
Product Details
Rocker Type
480 mm Rocker / Camber / 384 mm Rocker
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.

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.

Wide Profile Rockwell 48c Steel Edges
Urethane Top Edge Reinforcement and Dampening System

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. Big Mountain Big mountain skis are designed for charging big lines with high speeds and big airs. These skis varry in width from wide, powder-oriented skis for skiing Alaska spines to narrower, mixed condition skis for ripping the beat up headwall at your local mountain. Skis in this category tend to be on the stiffer side, often with more rocker in the tip and less in the tail. Powder These skis are for the deep days. If you like to find powder stashes at your local resort, go on backcountry missions for the freshest of fresh or heli ski trips to BC, powder skis are what you need to stay afloat. Skis in the powder category are wide and most often have some form of rocker or early rise plus a relatively soft flex. Many powder skis today are versatile enough to handle mixed conditions and harder snow. Alpine Touring Also known as backcountry skis, alpine touring (AT) skis are designed for going uphill as well as downhill. These skis are typically light for their width and many feature fittings that accept climbing skins. AT skis vary in width and weight, with the wider heavier versions usually used for winter/deep snow touring and the skinnier, lighter skis usually used for spring/summer/long distance touring.

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.

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.
