J Skis The Fastforward

BEEFING UP ITS CATEGORY OF PLANKS DESIGNED TO CHARGE THE FRONTSIDE, J skis has created its most carve oriented ski to-date. Simply put, J Skis The Fastforward rails turns at high speeds. The 92- mm waist is paired with a maple wood core that is sandwiched between narrow Titanal sheets running down the center of the ski, providing grip and power when the ski is laid on-edge, without sacrificing the playful characteristics J skis is known for. Subtle tip rocker keeps moving through the next turn and, unlike The Hotshot or The Masterblaster, The Fastforward doesn’t require you to put every ounce of energy in to get the power out; it wants to do the work for you. Tester Ian Doherty calls The Fastforward “a wicked playful ski you can trust—stiff with loads of pop.”
