Cork spatula

The Shape.

Asymmetrical Look.

The development process involved completely rethinking the ski experience and incorporating elements that were meaningful to us. Inspired by surfing, we break away from traditional symmetrical designs with an edgy nose and a distinct fish tail. This asymmetrical look represents our connection to snowboarding and allows the Recreation to feel like an extension of the rider.

Fish Tail

“The fish tail provides more reactivity and drive in turns. No matter the playground, it feels easy and playful. This shape brought me back the pleasure of turning and even more.” Laurent De Martin

Truly Swiss made.

Simply. skis are locally produced in Verbier – Switzerland using 100% renewable energy (hydraulic energy).

Enjoyment is great, but paired with consciousness is even better. We’re part of an ecosystem, which we have to respect. This starts with responsible and local production. This starts with a change.

We want to positively impact the ski industry by influencing consumption and consumer behaviours through scaled production. By being involved in the entire local production process. By having full transparency and honest communication. By being close to our community creating products that truly meet their needs, rather than the other way around. By becoming the pathfinders the ski industry needs and paving the way toward a responsible outdoor ecosystem.

Recreation.
Their first ride.

The best skis I ever ridden! On the slopes or on the park the ski is playful and precise, you just want to keep riding it. Skiing is fun, even more with the recreation!

I had a good time, and although I wasn't completely won over by the ski (at least for my own skiing style), I appreciate the opportunity to try them out.

I had the chance to test a pair of Simply skis. I immediately loved the design and the lines that offer a refreshing change from what is currently available on the market. I consider myself an experienced skier. Part of my family is from Chamonix, and I go there relatively often, although I haven't been skiing as much in the past 15 years (around 6-7 days per year on average). My current skis are Salomon QST 106 in 181 length. My previous pairs were the Salomon Rocker 100 and Rocker 122, and the Pocket Rocket. I used to do a bit of freestyle when I was younger, but nowadays I mainly ski in resorts and do a bit of easy touring. Someone described the ski as playful, fun, and better suited for spring snow conditions. However, I found the ski to be quite demanding, especially considering the description I had been given. I felt that I couldn't really relax and ski in a "chill" or laid-back style, especially on groomed runs or other times when you want to let yourself go. When I pushed the ski hard, I had a lot of fun, but the turns tended to be quite tight and I even lifted my inside foot "old-school" style on every turn (which I don't do with other skis). I also struggled to make large, sweeping turns. In any case, I thought I would fit perfectly with the ski's description (playful, fun, flexible, etc... A type of ski for goofing off on the side of the piste), but I realized that wasn't the case for me. Perhaps my weight distribution was off, or the ski is not my type. Nevertheless, I had a good time, and although I wasn't completely won over by the ski (at least for my own skiing style), I appreciate the opportunity to try them out.

Very good pop and very stable in the air, these skis are really reassuring to go all the way through rough terrain and incredibly aggressive to carve on the piste, they only make you want to attack.

The first model of the brand Simply, very light Swiss-made skis with a very flexible flex, their beveled shape at the front as well as the tailcoat at the back brings a unique style coupled with very playful and reactive behaviours. You feel so good in the curves that you can put back on the support and close the radius at the end of the curve, the feeling is crazy! You are looking for a ski for every day and the whole mountain, GO FOR IT!! Congratulations to the Simply team for these nuggets and thank you for your trust during the test!

One of the best skis I have ever skied, very manoeuvrable and playful. There is really a way to have fun on the slopes, in the park, and even on fresh powder.

Every turn on the slopes became a source of play and a constant search for fun.

Having experience with much heavier skis, I was very pleasantly surprised by the quality and responsiveness of the recreation. Every turn on the slopes became a source of play and a constant search for fun. It's a versatile ski that breaks the mold and remains highly performing in each discipline. In short: "The recreation is a FUNcreation."

Getting started with the Recreation came very naturally, skiing is instinctive. In a few meters of sliding, you feel that you are there to have fun.

The Ski is fun and playful. He likes to get out of the classic pattern which consists of chaining left turns and right turns, and so on. The slightest bump serves as an excuse to express a more alternative style of skiing. The flex is homogeneous over its entire length with a little extra rigidity on the back of the ski. The torsional rigidity is there, you feel it when you push on its 15 meters fun-curve radius – the ski does not stall.

An incredible ski to ride! It’s playful, lightweight, and flexible.

It’s a ski that you can enjoy even in the worst skiing conditions. It was a great experience throughout the entire test. Definitely one of the best skis I’ve tested and probably my next pair of skis!

Why you’ll love it.

A new Experience

The Recreation. was born from Laurent & Sampo’s perpetual search for good times. Beyond competition, beyond pure performance, what we want is enjoyment for everybody no matter the terrain or conditions. The Recreation. is the tool to inspire your ride.

Truly Swiss made.

From the research and the prototypes to the end product, everything is made locally. Everything is made by us. This has been possible thanks to our partnership with the First Track Lab, a recognized research & development hub that recently opened a ski factory in Verbier – Switzerland.

To a creative Ride.

Intuitive & adaptive, the only limit of the Recreation. is your mindset. They feel playful & surfy everywhere you go. Once on them, you will want to try new things, from ground tricks to side hits, from large curves to quick slashes.

Unrestricted Playgrounds.

The Recreation. is also light weighted and touring compatible, allowing you to discover new playgrounds in a respectful way. The fish tail has been adapted so you can mount your skins.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use my own touring skins?

We are selling POMOCA skins which are pre-cut based on the model purchased – but you can use your own as well. We recommend cutting your skins for ski touring to use their full potential and for security reasons as well. Before heading out, we recommend checking the tail and nose fixing to be sure it fits correctly.

Can it be used as touring skis?

The Recreation is a solid and stable ski, and light at the same time. It’s a perfect tool to go touring and ski some good stuff on the way down. Any touring bindings can be mounted. No worries about the fish tail, it has been adapted to mount skins too. Before heading out for a session, we suggest you to first try your setup at home as you might need cut your skins for optimal results.

How to find my Size?

Sometimes Size matters (only sometimes though)
There is no perfect formula here. It pretty comes down to your style, what you want to ride and how you want to do it. But here is what we would recommend you based on your height and weight.

Should I be concerned breaking the fish tails?

No concerns at all! Laurent and everyone else in the club have skied all season long and never have they faced any issues. We also added reinforcement on both parts of the fish tail so you can leave your skis on any surface and don’t have to worry.

What can I ride with the Recreation?

We designed the ski to be playful & creative on every terrain you have the chance to ride it on. It’s exactly the goal of the Recreation: groomers, pow, touring, side hits, park – you can do it all. You simply can enjoy everything.

Which binding can I mount?

Skiouring – Shift By Salomon – light on the way up and reliable on the way down.
All around – Jester by Marker – very secure and reliable setup, no matter the riding.
