Released August 1, 2025

Growing up, my dad would blast country music on our home stereo. John Denver was always in the tape deck on rotation, so when we decided to honor this legend with a ski graphic, “Rocky Mountain High” was the place to go!

The top of the ski features Maroon Bells Scenic Area in the heart of the Colorado Rockies between Aspen and Crested Butte during that magical moment in the fall when all the leaves change and the mountains light up with bright colors. This super bright mountain scene pops off the snow, these skis look incredible in person! We added a vintage vinyl record label to the top to tie it all together.

John Denver wasn't just a musician—he was a mountain lover who happened to be a genius songwriter. He got his first guitar from his grandmother at eleven and never looked back. What made Denver special was how he captured nature's soul in his music. The dude literally wrote "Annie's Song" on a ski lift! That's our kind of creative process.

Denver blended folk, pop, and country into something completely unique, selling over 33 million records while staying true to his mountain-loving roots. His songs weren't just hits—they were love letters to the outdoors.

I'm only making 200 pairs of this Limited Edition graphic on "The Flight" ski, and I hand-signed and numbered each. Whether you're a lifelong John Denver fan or just love this mountain scene, this ski captures that pure Rocky Mountain high we all get when hitting the slopes!

The Flight

As the narrowest ski in our Explore Collection, this NEW ski is the lightest, easiest to handle all-mountain ski you’ve ever ridden, with added versatility to adventure.

The Flight’s 95mm width, with deep sidecut and a snappy flex gives you lightning-fast reflexes. You’ll have awesome grip on firm snow, and easily lay trenches on buttery groomers as if your skis are reading your mind! The Aspen core and carbon fiber stringers make these skis feel weightless on your feet so you can pivot on a dime, maneuvering through tight trees and variable terrain with far less effort. After lunch your legs will be begging you to keep going til last chair! The subtle rocker floats through fresh snow and slush, so you're always ready to explore. When adventure calls, use the tail notch for reliable skin clip retention that pairs perfectly with our pre-cut skins, enabling you to go touring straight out of the box. Jump on the Flight and conquer everything from first chair to last call après - your skiing is about to take off!

Lightweight Aspen

Carbon Fiber

Lighter with more energy & pop than fiberglass
Just like fiberglass carbon needs to be fully stretched like a guitar string to give you the most pop. Unlike other brands of skis with wavy black carbon, not stretched, thus you’re not getting the energy out of it, we use pre-cured, pre-stretched carbon fiber laminates. This means the carbon is pre-stretched & cured under perfect conditions at the carbon fiber production facility prior to us receiving it. This pre-cured carbon laminate is twice the cost but also gives you many more times the performance. You’ll feel it!

Xtra Light Core

Light weight, durable wood core for the best up and down performance
Unlike our other J skis "The Escalator" and "The Slacker" feature a 100% Aspen wood core for maximum weight reduction while maintaining the torsional resilience and dampening not found on other brand's "light weight" skis. Aspen dramatically reduces weight, giving the ski an incredibly nimble feel. The result is the best of both worlds, a ski that is light for easy ups and maneuverability, yet with power, stability and durability not typically found on other brand's lighter weight skis.

Full Height Sidewalls

Maximum impact resistant & vibration dampening
We’re using super durable, high impact absorbing Ultra High Molecular Weight (UHMW) polyethylene for our sidewalls. This is the same material we use on our ski's bases. It’s very impact resistant and since it’s full height, it also absorbs more vibration like using a longer spring in your car’s suspension. Take a metal pipe and hit it against a rock, then do the same with a piece of plastic. The metal vibrates through to your bones & the plastic absorbs the vibration for you. That’s the difference of having full height plastic shock absorbing sidewalls over your edges or not. We’re cutting the sides of the sidewalls to a 10* angle, with a nice step at the bottom for easy tuning like race skis.

Light Edge

More durability edges without the weight
We use hardened steel edges that are 33% thinner than our other J skis for reduced weight while still maintaining strength. We reduce the thickness by 0.2mm which is actually still thicker than other brands "light weight" skis, so they are far more durable if you accidentally hit a rock, while maintaining a much longer life when re-tuning.

Light Base

Faster, lighter durable base material you can count on
We use a 30% thinner base that is 0.2mm thinner than our other J models to shave weight while still providing extreme durability. This base is actually thicker than other brand's "light weight" skis to guarantee you have far more durability when charging down. In addition our sintered Ultra High Molecular Weight (UHMW) Polyethylene is actually the highest quality base material available built to absorb wax better, slide faster, and last longer. Yup! Hard, fast and lasts longer... just like your _______ likes.

Quasitropic Fiberglass

Fibers run in 4 directions to maximize energy & strength
Fiberglass works like a guitar string, when it is flexed it wants to spring back, that’s the energy or pop you feel in a ski. However this energy can only be applied in the direction the actual fiberglass is run. This means the more directions of fiberglass, the more energy, pop & responsiveness. Industry standard “Triaxial” fiberglass runs in only three directions, we use a Quasi Isotropic fiberglass configuration, same as the aerospace industry to maximize energy & strength in as many directions as possible, 4 different axis 0, 90, +45, -45. It costs more, but it’s worth the performance.
