THE PESCADO 2026
The best powder ski on earth
The best powder ski on earth. Simple as that. Thanks to a swallowtail design, soft flex, and a massive shovel, the LINE Pescado floats through deep snow like a dream. A directional back-mounted stance allows the ski's tail to sink in deeper snow, thus raising the tip and giving you more control through the deepest of the deep, while the same concept allows the Pescado to carve groomers exceptionally well. Pick up the Pescado and experience one of the most innovative, unique, and insanely fun powder skis on the market.

Details
Rocker Type: Rocker Profile – 20mm Tip / 4mm Camber / 1mm Tail
Early Rise™ – Tip and tail lift away from the snow to bring the contact points closer to the center of the ski. This increases a ski's lift in deep snow and allows it to engage more quickly on hardpack.
Flex: Directional Flex – The softer tip floats and initiates turns easily while the stiffer tail provides power, stability and high speed control.
Shape: Swallowtail – A dramatic tail knockout de-couples the farthest reaches of the effective edge while simultaneously forcing the tail of the ski down in soft snow. The result is a ski that can be ridden at shorter lengths without sacrificing performance.
Sidecut: 5-Cut™ Geometry – Five different radiuses are blended into the ski's sidecut. The result? A wide variety of turn shapes and an intuitive feel.
Core: Paulownia Core
Laminates: Bio Resin – Increases bonding with the core.
Sidewalls: Sidewall Construction – Ultra-high density Polyethylene vertical walls over the edges to absorb vibrations and provide powerful energy transmission.
Base: Sintered 1.1 mm Base – Sintered bases reduce friction against the snow allowing for more speed, and more durability due to the high-density material they're crafted from.
Edges: 1.7mm x 2mm
Stance Back from Center: -80mm
