Description of Black Diamond Ethic Telemark Ski w/ Ascension STS Skins:
The backcountry skier's ethical dilemma: to poach a few turns or not to poach? The Black Diamond Ethic Telemark ski's answer is “Yes.” The Ethic is a hyper-versatile midfat, equally at home in fluffy, virgin powder as in sun-hardened mashed-potato mank. The Ethic's Densolite/wood core is leg-sparingly light for backcountry use, but tough enough to take resort abuse for days when you're feeling like someone else should do the work getting you up the hill. Dura-Edge carbide steel edges hold a tune famously, and the Electra sintered graphite base is eye-wateringly fast if that's your thing. The Ethic's binding plate handles tele or AT bindings equally well. As an added bonus, we threw in a pair of pre-cut Ascension STS Skins that fit the Ethics straight out of the box.

Bottom Line: The only Ethical dilemma is which beer is better for après ski.

Great do-everything ski. Likes to turn quickly, and performs well at speed. The 185 is actually a bit longer than 185. Can't wait to play in some powder - with the wide platform under the boot, they should be very stable. My only gripe is they're a bit sloppy when running in a straight line, ie: not turning. I mounted them with Targa G-3 bindings and like the response. Plus, they look hella cool.

out of the 3 I demoed, this was way better then the atomic and K2. This did great in the bumps mounted with an 02. It is great in all conditions. Definitely take this one out this year.

Skis are nice, light, and worked great in bumps. A little chattery on groomers but fun in light powder and moguls.
