When 4FRNT built the VCT Alpine Ski, they built it to cross the bridge between backcountry touring and big mountain freestyle boardsand they succeeded. The raised tail on Vincent Dorions pro model ski is squared off, so attaching touring skins is much easier, and 4FRNT added a fourth length option in this ski to divide the VCT line evenly between more maneuverable tour flex and big mountain stiffness. Both light and heavy riders can find a match for any terrainthe 182cm and 189cm models are burly planks for the big lines and steep, open bowls of the West, while the 168cm and 175cm lengths are dialed for all around backcountry and sub treeline powder skiing anywhere. East Coasters that are used to narrow trails and tight trees can pick up a shorter VCT and enjoy a maneuverable, bombproof ski that grips on Vermonts notorious frozen granular but still floats in hidden fluff stashes. The sweet graphics on the VCT are the work of fellow 4FRNT team skier and French Canadian, Charles Bedard.
