Liberty Genome Skis - If you're ready to give in and go for a pair of deep day fatties, the Liberty Genome Skis give you that indescribable surfy feel you just can't get on narrower or non-rockered boards. With camber underfoot and a traditional sidecut, the Genome has the versatility to crush hardpack like a much narrower ski, but take them out with a foot or more of untracked, and you'll never be able to go back. You'll find them on your feet more and more as you realize how versatile these fatties truly are, but let's not overshadow the fact that when those deep days come around, the Genomes give you that feeling that no helmet cam edit or magazine article can convey.

Fabric:

  • Proven sandwich laminate construction boosts performance and durability
  • The Quadaxial Glass fiberglass weave gives the ski incredible torsional rigidity and easy longitudinal flex

Weather and Wind:

  • P-Tex 2000 sintered base provides a fast and durable connection to the snow

Traction and Grip:

  • The 78-degree UHMW sidewalls provide increased edge grip and effortless turning

Features:

  • We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.
  • Liberty's Bomb Rocker is fully rockered in the tip and tail for maximum float with slight camber underfoot for bite on the hardpack
  • Bindings not included
  • The HRC 48 edges feature an extra-wide profile and anchors which increase durability and ensure long life
  • Fiber Reinforced Polymer mats under the binding area provide rigidity and better screw retention
  • Mid flex at the front of the underfoot section, and stiff flex in the back
  • 141mm underfoot provides flotation in the fluff ... obviously
  • The handmade Bamboo Backbone core is lightweight, strong, and eco-friendly
  • The moderate sidecut, twin rocker, and slight underfoot camber allow the Genome to perform like a shorter, stiffer ski on the hardpack

Fatties have all the fun.

Fully rockered in the tip and tail with 141mm underfoot, the Liberty Genome Ski plays harder and faster than any of those less girthy sticks. A slight camber underfoot allows the Genome to be surprisingly nimble on the hardpack while the handmade Bamboo Backbone core keeps the weight down. One epic powder day on the Genome and you'll understand why fatties have all the fun.

Liberty Genome Skis Review:

Reviews:

I bought this ski last year after the Liberty demo truck came to my hill. To be honest, I was intimidated by a ski this big, and was really just interested in the Double Helix. However, after one run on the DH I had to go work for a bit, and when I came back they were checked out. So I decided to give the big guy a try. Halfway down the first run I was trying to figure out whether I had enough money in the bank, or whether these were going to have to go on my credit card. Obviously, these things slay powder like you wouldn't believe, but what really blew me away was how light and quick they are. I have skis that are 35 mm narrower, yet heavier and slower turning. The rocker and side cut really do work miracles, and the bamboo core is light and lively like you wouldn't believe. I'll even ski park on these a little bit if it's only going to be a few runs and I don't feel like switching skis.
