1 The beauty of chemistry is you take a bunch of simple elements, and depending on the ratios and the process, you can create amazing things. That s what we do at 4FRNT. Simple, quality components and proven designs that are combined in ways to make revolutionary skis. 4FRNT TECHNOLOGY REFLECT TECH Reflect Technology was dreamed up by the mind of Eric Hjorleifson as a way to make rocker and side-cut work together. In the past, full rocker profiles would have a negative impact on the ability of the ski to edge consistently, and would cause the tips to hook and the tails to wash out while the ski was on edge. With Reflect Tech, the rocker radius and the side-cut radius are matched, to allow the ski to edge smoothly, and create predictable carving in all conditions. It virtually eliminates tip hook, as the ski will engage smoothly along the length of the ski, while still giving you the float and pivotability of a fully rockered ski. You can find Reflect Tech in the Renegade, HOJI, Devastator and Aretha. CONTOUR CORE Our women s skis have shapes similar to our men s line, but they are set apart with our women s specific Contour Core construction. While men drive the ski from their chest, women tend to ski from their hips, which generates forces down through their heels. With our women s cores, we ve moved the weight of the core rearwards (5cm) to accommodate this more centered skiing style. This lets women drive the true center of the core weight instead of constantly fighting from behind, while still being centered over the side cut. You can find Contour Core in the Aretha, Madonna and Blondie.

2 SKI CATEGORY When you re looking for a one-ski-quiver, look no further than our all-mountain skis. Take the park into the backcountry with these skis designed for maximum stompage. These skis take you away to that special place. POW. Spin, flip and slide your way to glory with our skis designed for the park and pipe. These skis will get you down the steepest, tightest and most exposed lines out there. When the deep gets deeper, you want a ski with the float you need. GEOMETRY This measures the amount of sidecut the ski has in radial meters. The Effective Edge is the length of running surface along the base. SHAPES The neutral sidecut length at the tip and tails' widest dimension. The two contact points of the ski are at the tips and tails. The tail of the ski is also upturned to allow for switch skiing and landings. Skis with the same dimensions in the tip and the tail, along with a near centered mounting point. A directional shape gives the ski a more consistent feel. DIMENSIONS Determines the length of the ski in centimeters along its base from end to end. This measures the width of the tip of the ski at its widest point This measures the width at midsole of the skis' narrowest point. This measures the width of the tail at its widest point. Weight shows how heavy a single ski weighs in kilograms and pounds. CAMBER An upturned radius in the tips and tails lets the ski float through powder and off-trail conditions. A lengthened tip shape where the rocker meets camber and the sidecut starts. A traditional ski shape that gives the ski maximum performance in groomed conditions. A full radius along the length of the ski gives the ski maximum float, and nimble turning. The wood core is inserted into a fiberglass sleeve for a lightweight, durable construction. Layers of wood and fiberglass are sandwiched together to create the highest performance ski. Semi-cap partially wraps the topsheet around the sidewall for additional durability. Inherited construction technique from central Norway, this sidewall-less design provides superb energy transmission to the edge. ENTROPY SUPER SAP EPOXY These bio-renewable materials are by products of the paper pulp industry, pine based feedstocks, and bio-fuel production. It is these by products that provide the epoxy in our White Room skis, with adhesion and elongation properties. PURL WAX Purl Wax is based out of Colorado and is made from renewable and natural sources. We chose to wax our bases with Purl Ice-9 wax because it is 100% biodegradable, petroleum free, and keeps nasty PFCs out of human bodies and watersheds. SIA RECYCLING PROGRAM This program collects old ski gear such as skis, boots, poles, and various other equipment and grinds up the material for repurposing. The White Room contributes all of its fiberglass and wood scrap from cutting the skis out once they come off the press. 41.

MEGA-BLOCK - Ash and Beech come together to form our most dense and damp core for the best in all-mountain dominance. FOAM - High-density foam is injected into state-of-the-art 3D molds to create a light and responsive core for our Future Series skis. HYPER-BLOCK - This core is designed with Poplar and Birch for freestyle riding, shredding laps and cruising the mountain.
