2012 – 2013 Release of Epic Planks Skis and Snowboards Product Line

The soul of Epic Planks was born over a few brews and has since emerged from a garage filled with clouds of resin and fiberglass. While the garage is long gone, the core philosophy of using rider feedback to progress the line of high performance Powder, Big Mountain, All Mountain, and Park models remains strong. Epic Planks are enjoyed by members of the Freeskiing World Tour, AFP World Tour, heliskiing guides, cat skiing guides, and other driven skiers worldwide.  Whether you’re hitting drops, park, groomers, or surfing pow – Ride Fat Twins and be the envy of your friends. Innovation. Feedback. Progress. Handcrafted with pride in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

Crop Duster

Back for the third season, this pow slaying masterpiece continues to push athletes to new levels.  Starting with a 122mm waist and a 26m radius @185cm, tip and tail rocker combine with zero camber underfoot to create a ski that floats in any situation.  Built for the deepest days, but also happy to rip down anything on the way back to the lift.

Ripper

Once in your stable the Ripper will quickly establish itself as your go-to, high energy ski that excels in all types of conditions. Modest early taper, a generous tip rocker and a short turn radius come together to offer a ski that feels nimble and light in tighter spots, while remaining incredibly stable at high speed. Whether its fast turns on the groomers, shredding the trees, or dropping bombs in the steeps, the Ripper is an extremely versatile one-ski quiver that likes to be ridden hard.

Vaporizer

This true twin park destroyer excels all over the mountain.  Symmetrical tip and tail rocker create a catch free feeling that inspires confidence everywhere.   The moderate sidecut (20m@175cm) is long enough to remain predictable even when bombing into the big line, and the lightweight construction yields a low swing weight in the air. Slap those bindings right in the center, and prepare to rip turns, butter lips, throw spins, shred rails, and send booters in the park and backcountry like never before.
