Manufacturer's Description

Juggling the padoxical rider demands of lightweight construction and durability is a tough job, but Amplid has been setting the benchmark with the Syntax for almost half a decade. Amplid’s HEXO2 construction, which consists of resin infused fiberglass and honeycomb, dramatically reduces swing-weight without compromising the ski’€™s robustness. For many skiers who are skiing at the top of their game, a low swing-weight can mean the difference between sticking new tricks or months in traction. When Amplid’€™s team riders demand edge hold and pop, the Syntax’€™s traditional park-ski geometry provides both in abundance, its long effective edge and full length Pop Camber are the hallmarks of a ski designed for uncompromising slopestyle performance. But skiers like Luka Melloni and Noah Albaladejo wouldn’€™t be so loyal to the Syntax if it didn’t have a natural playfulness too. Its 86mm waists and 20m sidecut are all about pairing predictable handling with responsiveness, the ski doesn’€™t buck when landing heavily on an edge and feels stable on big jumps. Since day one the Syntax has elevated its patrons to the top. Many of the Cartel team’s alumni have achieved X Games gold medals and seminal video parts on the Syntax.
