2023 Line Vision 118

For 2023, we’re happy to get the Line Vision 118 back in the lineup. The wide-bodied Line Vision 118 is a fun-loving ski to the nth degree. Thanks to the shape, construction, and profile of the ski, the Vision 118 is one of the most playful freeride skis we’ve seen come through, and we’re all about it. Line notes that the ski is a favorite among their athletes, including Dylan Siggers, Jonnie Merrill, and Jake Hopfinger. I feel like this is the ski that’s built and designed to fit on the back of some huge mountain sled and quickly taken up to some distant Colorado or Utah peak only to be unleashed on the bottomless powder below. From pillow drops to big hucks and cliffs, the Line Vision 118 wants to play in the deep stuff, and it has the goods to back it up.

Built with a blend of paulownia and maple, the skis use Line’s Partly Cloudy core. This is a nice blend of power, stability, and agility, and it just makes a lot of sense for a ski like this to be built this way. For additives, they then go with their THC superpowers, adding aramid, carbon, and fiberglass to the mix to really make the energy of this ski pop and stand out. As a result, skiers looking to get the most out of their experience will really gravitate towards this fun-loving build of the Line Vision 118. It’s pretty impressive watching Line athletes and other pro skiers access the entirety of the performance of the ski, so if you’ve got your YouTube open, definitely check out their methods and techniques for making this ski stand out among the rest of the field.

As a result of the shape and intention of the ski, it’s better-suited for advanced and expert skiers who are using this as their soft-snow ski in their quiver, or if they’re so lucky, as their daily driver in a very, very snowy locale. Either way, the Line Vision 118 is one of the most playful and smeary skis we’ve seen come through SkiEssentials.com, and we love looking at it and imagining the possibilities.
