Though it’s a mainstay in their lineup, the Sick Day is a much more traditional take on a ski than we’ve come to expect from Line.
In terms of ice cream, if the SFB, Sakana, and Vision represent the weirdest and most wonderful flavors available at your local creamery, the Sick Day is vanilla. There’s nothing wrong with vanilla, some people love it; but the best thing that can be said about it is it’s a safe bet.
Forgiveness is the most tangible benefit one receives from the Sick Day, and for that reason it’s a great option for burgeoning skiers to cut their teeth. One retains the ability to make engaging medium radius turns with the option to bail into a smeared slash at any time. This feeling carries to other ski-specific situations, in terms of pop, pivot, and powder performance one can expect middling results from the Sick Day.
