CORE Carbon 89

The Best One-Ski Quiver in Touring. Full Stop.

The Experience:

There are skis that do one thing exceptionally well, and then there is the Core Carbon 89,  a ski that does everything well, consistently, in virtually any condition the backcountry can produce. This is HAGAN's bestselling ski for a reason: it sits at the perfect intersection of uphill efficiency and downhill capability, with a Poplar and Carbon core construction that delivers a responsive, energetic feel without ever becoming demanding or unpredictable. It handles firm morning snow and afternoon crud with equal composure, climbs efficiently on long skin tracks without wearing your legs out, and descends with enough stability and edge grip to inspire confidence in steep, variable terrain. It is the ski you reach for when you don't know exactly what the mountain is going to throw at you, which, in the backcountry, is most days. And for skiers who want to make the most of every weekend, the Core Carbon 89 mounted with a brake binding doubles as a capable, reliable resort ski too, giving you a single setup that earns its place both in the sidecountry and inbounds.
