High Society Ski Review

The Aspen-based company has seen its independent spirit embraced by the freeride scene since its startup in 2003. Now in its fifth year of production, High Society maintains its independence, rider-owned mentality and commitment to producing quality products with a passion for the snow sports industry.




FR



Length: 171, 179, 187

Dimensions: 124-92-114 @ 179

MSRP: $630 Stoke: 7.5


High Society has put together its FR with a stronger, lighter poplar core, new dampening technology and faster bases. The ski comes in three sizes, each getting wider as it gets longer. Our park testers were able to ski the 171 and 179. These skis “loved rails and air and were happier jibbing around than carving on groomers.” According to our bigmountain testers, the 187 was “awesome in powder,” very consistent” and “smeared turns with ease.”
