Jimbo Phillips and his family have a long history of creating some of the most legendary and iconic skateboard graphics of all time. His father created the iconic Santa Cruz “Screaming Hand” back in the 80's and Jimbo continues the tradition today with hundreds of other insane skate graphics that are part of their legacy. It’s an honor to collaborate with him for a second time to create this mind blowing evil snowman having a snowball fight with the kids that created him.
We set out to fill the length of the ski with art like his skate decks. Jimbo starts the process with a pencil sketch and adjusts the design until we’re both happy with the vibe and layout on the ski shape. Then he outlines it with pen and ink and eventually brings it into the computer for the coloring. It looks even more insane in person, definitely one of my favorites, and selling fast! Only 350 pair available as part of our 10 Year Anniversary Limited Edition Ski Collection.

The Escalator is easy up, easy down… you CAN have your cake and eat it too!
This lighter weight, yet uniquely solid ski is built to do what you wanna do, whether that's sunrises on the skin track or spending all of your time riding lifts. The secret ingredient is a combination of a light Aspen core paired with our classic downhill ski construction for a Goldilocks feel that seamlessly blends stability with weight savings. Its 102mm waist slides perfectly into every skier’s quiver as a do-it-all tool that can lay down quick, snappy carves in bounds as effortlessly as it surfs wide open pow fields. We gave it a twin-tip shape for skiing backward and increased maneuverability in tight situations like chutes or trees. A subtle tail notch provides reliable skin clip retention for fast transitions. Add our pre-cut skins that perfectly fit the skis, and you're ready to go touring right out of the box! "The Escalator" will keep your legs fresher longer, so you can shred stronger from sunrise to last chair.

This ski is kind of a big deal!
A bell to bell cruiser with the reliability, nimbleness and energy that I've been craving for a long time.
- Freeskier Magazine
The 102mm-wide Escalator combines a pretty accessible flex pattern and freestyle-friendly design with a moderately lightweight construction, equating to a ski that a whole lot of folks could enjoy, whether you've got a park background or are a directional skier who wants something forgiving and intuitive.
- Blister Gear Review
Takes the fun of a damp all-mountain ski and lightens it up to tour.
- Backcountry Magazine
Lightweight, slashy and nimble. It pivots on a dime while maintaining a respectable level of stability. The fairly aggressive sidecut lends itself to a mean carve, yet you can still pivot, slash and schmear the tails. It’s a great combination for today’s creative freeride skier.
