Bamboo Carbon Core

Rebound That Works

A 100% bamboo core wrapped in carbon fiber stores energy as the ski bends through the turn. It releases that energy with huge rebound, springing you into the next turn and saving your legs. It feels strong and light, and it's easy to handle in powder, slush, crud or hardpack.

Flo Shocks

Less Chatter, More Control

A clear chamber filled with synthetic oil and ball bearings rides on the ski. When rough snow hits the ski, the bearings collide and move through the oil, absorbing that energy before it reaches your legs and takes your edges off the snow.
It works hardest against high-frequency chatter and also absorbs low-frequency impacts, the vibrations that rattle a ski off its edge on ice, hardpack and chop. The harder and bumpier the snow, the more you'll feel the difference.
What you feel: Your edges stay locked on ice and chop, and crud feels like fresh powder. Your knees and thighs take less pounding, so you ski longer and finish the day fresh.
FloShocks can be purchased separately to add to any skis.

Full Flex Riser

Carve at Walking Speed

Conventional bindings bolt flat and stiffen the middle of the ski like a splint, leaving a dead spot underfoot. That's why most skis only carve when you're going fast enough to force them to bend.
The patented riser floats the binding above the ski, so the ski bends freely into one smooth arc from tip to tail under light forward pressure at any speed. It also lifts your boot, so a small tilt of the ankle puts the ski on a high holding edge.
What you feel:
Turn entry: Just roll your ankles. The ski engages and rolls into the turn like a rocking chair. You don't have to drive your shins into your boots with nearly as much pressure as standard skis require.
Mid-turn: The ski holds a clean carved line with no skidding, even at slow speeds.
Turn exit: The edge releases smoothly, with no catching or hooking, so you flow into the next turn.

Company Story

PRODUCT DEVELOPER

Adrian Floreani, a former NASA aerospace engineer who grew up skiing the Colorado Rockies, developed the patented FloSkis technology.  Adrian discovered, while working at NASA, that a liquid medium developed to reduce rocket engine vibrations and launch rockets into outer space could also be used to advance the sport of skiing.  The patented FloSkis dampening system allows anyone to ski at a higher more advanced level.  If your just a weekend warrior and thought moguls and powder were not in the cards, think again.  FloSkis will have you riding the bumps and carving powder just like you dreamed. 

FloSkis is built on the combination of the revolutionary FloShocks stabilizer system, 100% bamboo core and patented Full Flex Riser.  This NASA engineer developed a way for skiers and riders to quickly get what they all want: the ability to ride faster, carve turns harder with more control and minimal effort and ski smoothly through the most challenging of conditions.  Adrian wanted everyone to feel like they were cruising groomers on the choppiest of mashed potato snow, to fly down the mountain twice as fast as they ever had, and to glide and navigate more effortlessly.  Adrian created this all with one advanced ski.  Throughout the course of 20 years, thousands of ski days and many prototypes later, FloSkis was born.

PRODUCT GOALS

The top priority while designing the world’s most advanced skis was and is skier safety.  One of the key features of FloSkis is the integrated FloShocks technology.  FloSkis increases skier safety by giving the user absolute and complete stabilized control while simultaneously allowing the skier to ski effortlessly in any conditions: from solid ice to knee deep powder.  No driver wants to drive a car without shocks, and now no skier will either!  FloSkis revolutionized skis by integrating a multifaceted technological system, creating the biggest change in the ski industry since straight skis were turned into shaped skis.  The future of skis is FloSkis technology: the future is now.
