The Zero G105 is made for skiers who are prepared to work to access the best snow and when they find it they want a ski with power, float and stability for the ride back down. A 3Duni-directional carbon fibre frame with a lightweight paulownia woodcore provides grip on hard snow and impressive levels of control. It’s powerful construction is ideal for performance freeriders but also light weight to aid with the long skin ups. The Tip and Tail Rocker improve the ease of use and performance in powder compared to the previous model, without affecting the USP of power and stability.Terrain Type & Ability LevelTerrain Type The 105 is happiest in soft and deep snow but it is also very capable when conditions are firmer.Skier TypeBackcountry skiers who are looking for the best conditions and want a ski with float and stability so they can make the most of deep days and untouched snow. And this is without being heavy so you can max your vert searching for these stashes.OverviewShapeA directional shape with tip and tail rocker means predictable handling in any condition. 105mm in the waist ensures there is plenty of float and stability when the snow is softer, deeper or just all messed up, but not so wide that it becomes a pig to handle when things firm up or get tighter. The 23m radius (180cm) sounds long and does provide a super stable feel, helping the ski track cleanly whatever the snow condition, but thanks to tip and tail rocker the ski is super easy to manoeuvre too.RockerTip and Tail Rocker ensures smooth turning with effortless initiation and hassle-free release whatever the conditions. The camber underfoot provides the grip and energy to deal with firmer conditions and more aggressive skiingCoreAn ultra-lightweight paulownia woodcore helps keep the weight down without affecting the overall perofrmance.ConstructionThe Carbon Drive 2.0 Construction uses a 3D uni-directional carbon fibre frame to keep weight to a miminum whilst providing god torsional stiffness. A mix of sidewall underfoot for great grip and precision, with more cap at the tip and tail to provide durability and forgiveness, ensures good all round handling.Key FeaturesCarbon Drive 2.0 ConstructionThe integration of a 3D uni-directional carbon fibre frame with an ultra-lightweight paulownia woodcore construction reduces the weight in the ski while providing structure for performance. The carbon frame’s 3D geometry guarantees optimal flex and torsional rigidity. The result is a level of stability, edge grip and control unprecedented in the world of ski mountaineering.Carbon ReinforcementTwo edge to edge layers of bi-directional carbon fibre are positioned in the binding mounting areas ti improve binding retention and torsional strength.eB tester’s comments: Steve (Buying Team) Still a powerful ski that wants to charge but now has a bit more forgiveness in the tip and tail making it easier to handle in deeper snow.Technical SpecificationsSize (cm)Tip Width (mm)Waist Width (mm)Tail Width (mm)Radius (m)Weight (g)180133105120231540188133105120241660General InformationSkier Ability: Advanced/expertTerrain Type: BackcountryRocker: Tip/Tail RockerRadius: LongBase: SinteredBindings: SinteredDIN: n/aConstruction: Semi SidewallCore: Wood, CarbonDemo: N/ASizing Description: Go shorter for reduced weight and quicker climbing properties, chose a longer length for more floatation and stability.
