 By doing the vertical strips, we can use a quarter of the material, keeping them lightweight, but it also maintains the stiffness and dampness of metal in the skis. Sandwiching that together is two full sheets of carbon fiber, and then underfoot we have a binding insert plate made of pre-cured fiberglass. That improves binding retention, and more importantly allows for telebindings, where most other lightweight skis don't do well with telebindings. The flex of the Summit comes in slightly softer than our other skis at a 6

 A unique part of the ski is we took a more playful approach with the design, where a lot of skis in this category become stiff and aggressive. This maintains a fun, playful type of riding. The Summit comes in at 105 underfoot, and the sidecut radius varies from 13.5 to 16

 Hey, my name is Alex, and we're going to run through our Summit Carbon Skis today. For our 10-year anniversary, we brought a fresh new look to our graphics we're calling the Quiver series. These clean, crisp, cohesive graphics are done by our talented artist, Brooke Ruble. On all of these graphics, we have a new icon representative of the model's name, and then the graphic through the middle gives a nod to the terrain they're designed to be used in

 The Summit is our daily driver's ski that can be used in any conditions from firm, variable snow to floating and light powder. They can also be used as a lightweight resort ski. A unique part of the ski is we took a more playful approach with the design, where a lot of skis in this category become stiff and aggressive. This maintains a fun, playful type of riding

The Summit is our go-to, every day, All-Mountain ski. From steeps to trees and pow, the Summit will see you to the top and beyond. To achieve this we've combined a 105mm ski with our All-Mountain camber-dominant ski profile. There's just the right amount of reverse camber in the nose to help keep you afloat, while an approachable 1.5mm of camber provides solid pop and edgehold to keep the ski energetic. We pair this with a ultralight core composed of paulownia and aluminum stringers, with a carbon fiber overlay. The paulownia and carbon keep things ultralight and the horizontal aluminum provides dampening similar to a full metal ski while weighing in at only 1580 grams in a 176cm. The Summit is truly designed to be the daily driver in our line.

 Hey, my name is Alex, and we're going to run through our Summit Carbon Skis today.

 For our 10-year anniversary, we brought a fresh new look to our graphics we're calling

 These clean, crisp, cohesive graphics are done by our talented artist, Brooke Ruble.

 On all of these graphics, we have a new icon representative of the model's name, and then

 the graphic through the middle gives a nod to the terrain they're designed to be used

 The Summit is our daily driver's ski that can be used in any conditions from firm, variable

 They can also be used as a lightweight resort ski.

 A unique part of the ski is we took a more playful approach with the design, where a

 lot of skis in this category become stiff and aggressive.

 This maintains a fun, playful type of riding.

 The Summit comes in at 105 underfoot, and the sidecut radius varies from 13.5 to 16.5

 That way it stays proportional to the length of the ski overall.

 The camber on the ski is only 1.5mm underfoot, which means you've got enough edge hold when

 you need it, but overall stays loose and playful, making for easy pivot and turn initiation.

 The Summit has 1.5mm of camber underfoot, which gives you enough edge hold when you

 need it, but doesn't make it overly aggressive.

 And then as you extend out, you've got a big rocker tip and tail for improved float,

 and just maintaining the playful feel of the skis overall.

 Consistent through all of our skis, we use a full polonium core, but unlike a lot of

 others, we do vertical strips of aluminum instead of horizontal sheets.

 By doing the vertical strips, we can use a quarter of the material, keeping them lightweight,

 but it also maintains the stiffness and dampness of metal in the skis.

 Sandwiching that together is two full sheets of carbon fiber, and then underfoot we have

 a binding insert plate made of pre-cured fiberglass.

 That improves binding retention, and more importantly allows for telebindings, where

 most other lightweight skis don't do well with telebindings.

 The flex of the Summit comes in slightly softer than our other skis at a 6.

 It's stiff underfoot, and then progresses softer towards the tip and tail.

 This does well in a lot of different snow types, from chundery snow all the way to soft

 Similar to all of our models, we use a Palmy topsheet that's sustainably derived from

 This topsheet is scratch resistant, sheds snow, and is just more durable overall.

 The only problem is stickers don't really stick to it.

 Surrounding everything is our UHMW sidewalls, which are lighter than other offerings out

 there but maintains good durability and impact resistance.

 Our high-end sintered 4000 bases are super fast and are predominantly black, which makes

 And finally, new for this season are reinforced holes in the nose and then notches in the

 I really love the Summit because as someone who grew up snowboarding, having a fun playful

 ski like this lets me take that style of riding wherever I want with me in the backcountry.

  They maneuver well in small, tight radius turns in bumps and glades, but hold their own when the terrain opens up for long, carving turns.  The only condition where I have found they underperform has been thick, heavy storm snow that has included a mix of snow and rain in the same storm.  Here, I have found that the ski tends to catch and wobble, particularly in the area just forward of the binding mounting, where the ski narrows.  

I have skied the Summits in a variety of conditions ranging from New England hardpack (read, sheer ice) to fluffy powder to bumps, trees, and wide open spaces.  On the hardpack, they hold an edge without feeling skittish or chattery, on powder, the big shovel and the rise in the ski tip floats the ski beautifully and gives a nice, "surfy" feel to the ride.  They maneuver well in small, tight radius turns in bumps and glades, but hold their own when the terrain opens up for long, carving turns.  The only condition where I have found they underperform has been thick, heavy storm snow that has included a mix of snow and rain in the same storm

  In general, the design of the Summit has been a game changer in my skiing by inspiring confidence through creating a stable, reliable platform from which to crank out smooth, powerful tele turns that were previously inaccessible to me on other skis. Overall I am super happy with the Summit, and could say with confidence that this ski really does do everything well enough to be my one-ski quiver.  As a bonus, the art on the topsheet by Brooklyn Bell is absolutely eye-catching and unique.  Definitely the most beautiful ski I have ever ridden

Yes, Weston is well-known for their snowboards but the folks designing skis really hit the nail on the head by creating a solid, do-everything, daily driver ski that is fun, confidence inspiring, and reliable.  Buy this ski.  You won't be sad.

Another "quiver killer" from Weston!

 Hey, my name is Liz Milliken and I've been skiing for 30 years and riding Weston Summits for the last three. So these are those Weston Summits. They have a lot of great rocker in the tip and in the tail, as well as some fun poppy camber right here underfoot. They're perfect for riding exactly what I like to ride, which is those open trees and deep pow days

 And then back before I was riding the Weston Summits, I was on a pair of cheap skis about 90 underfoot with frame bindings. And let me tell you what, having the upgrade to skis this light and this responsive was massive. They are very lightweight while still being rigid enough so that you're not sacrificing anything on the way down, but you're saving your knees on the way up. And that's why I love the Weston Summits

 But even when it comes to in the resort, you'll still get some really nice satisfying long turns when you're ripping through the groomers. The top sheet here is done by the artist Brooklyn Bell. She's a really cool outdoors person from Washington state, and we are really excited to have these colors on the skis this year. So in addition to having just a really rad top sheet, the portion of the sales for these skis is going to ARIE for Avalanche Education Scholarships

The Summit is our every day touring ski. Featuring Camber to Rocker profile, Rugged Topsheet,  Sintered Base, Binding Plates, Carbon Weave Layup, and our Strike Core - the Summit is built to be a lightweight touring beast after its namesake of the couloir here in Colorado. The combination of paulownia wood, aluminum stringers, and a carbon topsheet creates a responsive, lightweight, and damp ride.

Featuring rad artwork from Bellingam, WA athlete/artist Brooklyn Bell, a portion of the proceeds from this ski will be going to continue funding AIARE avalanche education scholarships.
