Black Diamond Impulse 104 Skis Black
Size
The ski's flat solid core construction and ABS sidewalls add torsional stiffness and provide premium power transmission, dampening and stability to maintain speed while moving forward on the hardest snow. Made in Austria with pre-impregnated fiberglass and an engineered poplar core, the Impulse 104 is a freerider's ski, made to rip.
Features:
- Versatile 104mm skate adapts to a variety of conditions
- Rocker tip and tail and traditional camber underfoot
- Rocker tip and tail provide flotation in the deepest snow and allow the ski to initiate and exit turns more easily
- Made in Austria with a pre-preg fiberglass layer and a poplar core
- Flat toe construction and ABS sidewalls for increased power and torsional stiffness
- Optimal use: 60% soft snow, 40% hard snow

Technology:
- Prepreg Fiberglass:
Prepreg is a term assigned to various base materials such as fiberglass in this case, which has been precoated with a resin system, typically an epoxy resin based system, which is commonly used as an adhesive, due to its strong properties that allow it to be used in structural and engineering adhesives.
- Titanal Mounting plate:
A high-strength titanium plate is embedded under the composite layer to ensure that fixation screw retention is never a concern. This plate also serves to increase torsional rigidity and provides a solid base under the feet.
- Internal Core Dampening:
Elastomeric materials are strategically placed within the ski to improve shock absorption and edge control. These layers serve both to absorb high frequency vibration and to allow some cutting between the inner layers, improving both performance and durability.
- Wood Core:
Paulownia wood is the material of choice when light weight is required, but compromising performance on the slopes is not an option. The stiffness and weight properties of paulownia wood make it the reference material when using carbon fibre in the boards. Its slightly softer longitudinal stiffness allows the use of stiffer carbon composites without compromising the flex profile of the ski. It has good compression and shearing properties, which allow for remarkably smooth and chatter-free skiing performance at a very low weight.
- ABS Sidewalls:
The ABS side walls wrap around the entire perimeter of the ski, offering optimal durability and shock absorption. Used on skis designed for maximum performance and durability on the descent, but optimized for minimum weight.
- PTEX 4500 Base:
Accepted by the industry as the premier base material, this sintered UHMW-PE base provides very high density for excellent durability and wax retention, combined with high carbon content for superior slip.
Highlights
The Impulse 104 is a true all-mountain ripper that can charge hard on the mountain and then rip through powder the next day on a backcountry trip. With a playful and floaty feel, but with an agile load capacity when needed, the Impulse 104 performs well on either side of the string.Highlights
