Construction Style

The Moon Pows come standard in our Carbon construction style. For a different type of, visit our custom ski page.

Carbon construction features local spruce core, metal binding mount, fiberglass and carbon fiber reinforcements A pound on your feet is like five on your back! Weight savings on gear are crucial if you are shooting for big alpine objectives. Heck, most of the staff at Fairweather are aging millennials who rely on ultralight gear just to keep up with the youngin’s on an afternoon lap. Whatever your reason for going carbon, you have likely realized that type A fun on the skintrack is directly proportional to the amount of weight you are lugging around on your feet. To reach our weight goals, we combine carbon fiber cloth with fiberglass, a locally harvested spruce core, a metal binding reenforcement, and polyurethane sidewalls for a ski thats light on the skintrack but still ample and durable enough to handle the Alaskan mountains. You can expect an extended service life when you add carbon to your Fairweathers (carbon fiber retains its flex properties longer than fiberglass), so when investing in an ultralight setup, you can have confidence that it is BartTech approved!

Artwork by Klara Maisch

The art on these skis is by Klara Maisch. We first met Klara around the same time we started building skis. She burst into our workshop, and in a blur of enthusiasm busted out an paint job for her first set of sticks that knocked our socks off. She regularly shreds hard with a backpack full of painting supplies and a canvas strapped to the outside. We’ve been honored to collaborate with her ever since.

Touring Bindings

We now offer bindings on our skis! For ski touring, we recommend Dynafit bindings as they have the longest track record and have proven themselves as reliable as anything in our harsh environment. Though we try to keep a variety of bindings in stock, styles, colors and inventory fluctuate and their stock quantity is not necessarily reflected in our webstore. If we don’t have your selected binding in stock, we will contact you to make arrangements for an exchange. We recommend either :

Dynafit Radical ST 10

The industry standard tech binding. When Dynafits patent ran out a few years ago on this binding, most other binding manufacturers jumped on the opportunity to copy it. Some succeeded, others failed, we love this binding because of its simplicity and combination of strength, weight ($535g) and brakes.

Dynafit ST Rotation 10

Seems to be Dynafits improvement on the ST Radical 10. Features a toe piece that rotates to release for safety. Adds a bit of weight (599g) which is a small price if it prevents a knee injury!

Dynafit TLT Speedfit

The TLT Speedfit Binding is a 310-gram, minimalistic ski touring binding that combines the characteristics of a lightweight, ascent binding with the advantages of a classic ski touring binding. The heel unit can be adjusted to release values from 5 to 10. The TLT Speedfit binding has less length adjustment compared to the ST models, weighs less and doesn’t include brakes.
