Praxis Skis takes great pride in our slogan "Handcrafted in the Sierra Nevada Mountains"

Constructed in the small mountain town of Truckee, CA these skis are crafted with precision and quality.

Check out our construction methodology below!

All ski models have a bomber sidewall type construction with the following features...

Bullet Proof:

9mm UHMW Round-wall The Sidewall has a roundover finish

giving the ski a sleek look and better protecting the ski top and wall from damaging blows.

Hand Picked Wood Cores:

We hand pick ash and aspen to meet our high standards and construct the cores from start to finish to assure precision and quality. The final product is cut to required dimensions with a CNC, the result is a precision shaped core every time.  Each core is inspected for durability and desired flex before being added to the production line.

2.2 mm Edges:

Wrapped 360 degrees around extra thick and durable sintered bases these bases are designed to take what skiers are throwing at them nowadays.  With better ski technology and higher level skiers every year we understand that our equipment needs be able to handle the progression.

Low Camber:

A traditional full camber much like you would see on a downhill race ski. Less camber then you would see from the average industry ski. Excellent for harder snow, groomed, or skied out. Camber makes the ski very responsive edge to edge and fast to initiate a turn.

Recurve:

A combination of camber and rocker that is showing some obvious benefits. A small amount of camber in the underfoot area adds life to the ski and allows for more edge grip. The tip and tail are raised up with rocker making the ski perform better in powder. The tips and tails traverse better across the surface of the snow freeing up the catch points from grabbing variable snow.

Tip Rocker:

The rear 75% of the ski has a very low traditional camber and the front 25% of the ski has rocker. The Rocker in the tip increases performance in powder and variable snow. The tail having a very slight camber allows for a more traditional ride and feel.

Continuous Curves Rocker:

The rocker profile has no flat spot; instead it flows from a greater curve in the tip to a lesser curve in the mid and tail sections of the ski. The result is a great powder ski.
