If you are a fan of the DPS shaping and overall quality, and are looking to broaden your horizons into the deep and vacant backcountry, you should definitely check out the DPS Pagoda Tour 106 C2 skis. By using the same shape as the alpine version of the ski, DPS has already tapped into a rabid fanbase. By lightening the load of the construction, they are appealing to a new set of skiers who wants something light and efficient on the ups without losing downhill performance in the slightest. The C2 shaping is great for skiers who take a more direct and aggressive approach to the hill, and the new build with aerospace foam to go along with algal technology in the center and in the sidewalls will make those climbs a breeze.
