Released August 1, 2022
Once again this hilarious graphic was conceived by none other than "Ahmet's Brother," the skier previously known as Giray Dadali. This is the 3rd and final graphic in his legendary "Brotherhood series" of Limited Edition skis we're releasing together. He set out this time to tell the true story of how he became one of skiing’s most unexpected outlaws from birth to today, stunting his way to freedom and never looking back!
I’m building only 200 pair of this Limited Edition graphic on "The Friend" ski that Giray rides to destroy bottomless pow and charge through chunder like Cadillac. I've hand signed and numbered each pair so you have a one-of-a-kind ski like no one else that people will still be talking about in the lift line many years from now. Grab your pair before the Brotherhood is gone forever...

Surf and play in powder like a pro with versatility to continue having fun when the pow's gone.
“The Friend” ski was designed in collaboration with athlete Giray Dadali to surf pow, stomp landings and charge harder with less effort than ever before…. so you don’t have to be a pro to ski like one! Its long, gentle rocker and 117mm waist keep you effortlessly floating, slashing and popping even on the deepest days. When the pow’s gone you’ll be able to count on its solid maple wood core and high energy carbon fiber to help you blast through chunder with an unprecedented smooth and reliable feel. The real surprise comes from its tight sidecut, enabling you to have fun gripping and ripping firm snow for versatility like none other. The Friend is a rare breed of powder ski earning it more awards than any other in its class. Float, surf, slash and butter in the deep pow until it gets tracked out, then have equal fun charging endless top to bottom chunder and groomer laps. This is a powder skier’s dream one-ski quiver!

"The Friend is the kind of ski I'd take on the trip of a lifetime without considering bringing a backup. It's PB&J exactly when you need it, and Dad made it."
- Powder Magazine (Ski of the Year)
An excellent pow ski for a wide range of skiers; capable as a directional or freestyle option.
- Blister Gear Review
For powder-hunters, The Friend should be considered essential when traveling out of bounds.
- Freeskier Magazine
"The Friend was designed with more than just overhead pow in mind: A sturdy maple core and surprisingly tight sidecut are intended to enable playfulness when the powder’s gone.
- Backcountry Magazine
"This is the ski you want if you need your legs to last all day, especially when it won’t stop puking snow. After all, no one should call it quits when the refills are free."
- SKI Magazine
