There’s no denying Line’s rapport in Freestyle skiing. The Tom Wallisch Pro model– the once much-anticipated and now long-celebrated, dedicated freestyle ski in their lineup–remains the most trusted model from Line for hitting XL park features.
But these skis don’t just go big, they’re on the aggressive side of a freestyle swiss army knife, but any seasoned trick skier should be able to bend, slide and otherwise slay these skis anyway they imagine.
Given the reputation of the pro backing them, the Tom Wallisch should be on the shortlist of any serious park rider looking for a new ski to blow up. But what really sets them apart is a unique tip and tail taper.
The edges on either end of the ski are designed to be forgiving when landing rotation, so you don’t catch an edge and slam when you don’t quite bring your spin around.
Notable Features
Symmetric Flex: The fore and aft sections of the ski have the same flex pattern for a more predictable ride regardless of which end is pointed downhill.
5-Cut: Multiple-radius sidecut allows skiers to more easily make a variety of different turn shapes.
Carbon Olliband: Carbon stringers running the length of the ski add pop and rebound
