DPS Pagoda Tour 106 C2
The latest iteration of DPS's Pagoda Touring Ski, the Pagoda Tour 106 C2, stands out for its exceptionally light performance weight, combined with enhanced stability and cushioning. This model merges the flexibility of the C2 shape and a 106mm waist with superior uphill capabilities.
In this second generation, the C2 shape's inherent versatility and the 106mm waist integrate seamlessly with the advanced uphill performance of the revamped Pagoda Tour construction.
This design results in what is arguably the most proficient touring ski DPS has ever crafted. It is uniquely a powder-focused touring ski that incorporates C2 shaping with a longer turn radius, optimizing its performance on steep slopes.
Aimed at advanced and expert skiers who prioritize a strong connection to the snow and prefer a directional turning style, this updated version is even lighter than previously possible for DPS.

Technology
Pagoda Tour
After the successful introduction of its performance-oriented tour construction technology in 2020, DPS is now unveiling the second generation of Pagoda Tour Construction. While it retains the industry-leading lightness-to-performance ratio, these new generation touring skis are more stable and better damped than their predecessors.
Thanks to the innovative Third Rail Technology, this updated platform not only performs better but is also more durable. It integrates the hybrid wood/foam core with a new bio-based sidewall material. The groundbreaking Algal Sidewall Technology, with 63 percent bio content from microalgae, is engineered for its damping properties, flexibility, impact resistance, and ease of machining and bonding. This leads to a customizable, eco-friendlier material that allows DPS to craft skis that are not only more stable and durable but also mark a significant advancement in their commitment to sustainability.
