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 ride it. Click on the ski size of your choice on the right to show the corresponding height and weight ranges.

What we would recommend you based on your height and weight if you are in between two sizes – aim for the bigger size if you want stable skis. If you prefer super reactive skis, the smaller size would be better.

  • Next Core

    Next Core© technology combines oriented high-density wooden stingers and lightweight wood. This fusion of materials breaks the boundaries between lightness and skiability, delivering exceptional reactivity, stability, and carving capabilities.

  • Base & Edges

    The base of our ski is made of high-density polyethylene (sintered PE-UHWD), ensuring excellent glide performance and ease of maintenance. Additionally, our wider edges allow for more frequent sharpening, enhancing overall durability.

  • UV Printed topsheet

    A minimalist design with transparency reduces the amount of ink used and provides a timeless appearance to the ski. The graphics are directly printed under the top sheet, ensuring durability. All printing processes are free from toxic solvents for better working conditions.

Locally

Produced

From Ato Z
near Verbier in the Swiss Alps

Enjoyment is great, but combining it with consciousness is even better. We aim to positively impact the ski industry by influencing consumption and consumer behaviors through scaled production, engaging in the local production process, maintaining full transparency and honest communication.

This vision is becoming a reality thanks to our partnership with First Track, a recognized research & development hub that has recently opened a ski factory in Verbier, Switzerland. From research and prototyping to the final product, everything is made locally, gathered, and assembled under one roof—by us. Our collaboration with First Track marks the beginning of the change we strive to see in the ski industry.

Tested & Loved.

Their first ride.

It’s the perfect compromise for those who love both groomers and powder.

In the lineup, it’s the equivalent of my current pair (Faction Dictator), but lighter and more aggressive for drawing beautiful turns.

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.

That's great to ride! You can feel that the skis are of good quality and have a lot of flex, and that's fantastic.

Really top ski in all types of snow. Really playful, a feeling reached from the first turns.

Super light. On the slope, it is super easy and turns too well. The only downside is the price which is a bit steep, but it's worth it.

One word to describe the Recreation 180: playful! I loved the skiability of the skis due to their lightness!

The small turn radius of the Recreation 180 may be surprising at first, but you get used to it very quickly: it's a ski that works equally well on the slopes and in the park and easily adapts to different skiing styles.

The flexibility is surprising compared to more traditional skis, but after a few runs, it becomes a real plus for having fun! Therefore, I encourage anyone interested to test them if they have the opportunity!

Very playful and lightweight skis!

In powder, they're very fun and responsive, and on soft snow on the slopes, it feels like you're skiing slalom. Easy to bend to carve turns. When it gets bumpy, you can feel that they are flexible. I also found that the back of the ski might be a bit too flexible (for my taste). These are playful skis to ride.

FAQs

You can – and you should. It works perfectly not matter if you ride slopes or park. In deeper snow, it might become trickier if you don’t know what you’re doing. But this is the same no matter the skis.

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.

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.

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.

We have marked the optimal mounting position directly on the skis. We highly and only recommend mounting your skis using these marks.

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.

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.

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.
