This episode of the SnowBrains Podcast is brought to you by Peak Skis: Can a ski change your life? Peak’s new all mountain skis by Bode Miller and sidecountry skis by Chris Davenport just might. That’s not marketing hype. The all new Peak Ski Company didn’t launch last spring to improve versatility incrementally—the company is built on innovation. Peak Skis take versatility to a new dimension. It begins with KeyHole Technology™, a winning innovation that Bode stumbled upon during his World Cup days that allows for a more manageable ride off trail but more underfoot beef when you want to push the pace. Paired with Peak’s reduced sidecuts, which allow for fluid turns of all shapes without that hooky feel, Peak Skis make skiing more fun. And fun is life changing. Snowbrainers understand the powder skier’s conundrum: You bring the fat skis to the hill to float and surf in the trees—but on the frontside hardpack the big skis skitter. Meet the Peak 104 with Bode Miller’s KeyHole Technology™. They’re playful, and buoyant, but you can charge groomers on ’em, too. It’s Bode’s daily driver at Big Sky. The storms are rolling into Tahoe. In Montana, home to Peak Ski Company, new snow and a deep freeze is preserving the early dumps. In Utah, the zealots are hiking for turns at Alta. You know all this, which is why you’re asking yourself: “Are my skis going to get me through another season?” If the answer is no—and the answer is often no—you need to check out the madly versatile Peak 98SC by Chris Davenport. It leaves trenches inbounds, but it’s light and forgiving enough for the backcountry, too.

Creating a ski boot to fit both the needs of one of the world’s most accomplished big mountain skiers and a World Cup ski
