Groundhog Touring


The Groundhog is the perfect touring ski for just about any condition. With 100mm underfoot, it’s light going up and has enough width for going down. This is the one ski that does it all—wherever you go, whatever the conditions. Pop through some powder in the trees, then slash to the bottom on the steeps. It includes a Kevlar veil—adding energy to the FSC certified bamboo core—and designed with an early rise and reverse sidecut in the tip for floating in pow, and strong tail for stability on hardpack and crud. Our specially designed Razor Cut sidecut provides strong edge grip—straighter where you need cutting power and curved in the right spots for turning. This award-winning ski gets it done, and brings on the fun.

Ambition 12 Alpine Touring Binding

The Ambition is the newest binding to the Tyrolia touring lineup. It is the ultimate tool for the skier who wants a light binding (3.8 pounds) for going up but a reliable binding for going down. The Ambition is outfitted with the Alpine Touring Toe that can be adjusted to alpine and touring boot norms and provides superior safety features. It also includes the Alpine Touring Heel and Climbing Aid, which provide better walking balance and effortless climbing with four different climbing aid positions (0, 5, 10, and 15 degree). With some bindings, lightweight equates to poor downhill performance but not with the Ambition. The Tyrolia Freeflex System interacts with all of the binding parts to flex naturally on the ski to bring you excellent downhill performance. The Ambition 12 has a DIN range of 4-12.

Touring Pole

Touring requires a reliable pole that is sturdy but light. It’s a tough order to fill. But the RAMP Touring Pole does just that with the Titanal.HF shaft that boosts weight-bearing strength without adding much weight. The Power Lock II locking system gives you more locking power and Airfoam grips are contoured to fit your hand and give you a comfortable ride. The three-section design collapses into a compact size for easy packing.
