Van Deer Freeride 108 19967732

The Van Deer Freeride 108 is a lightweight ski built for off-piste exploration and fresh snow days. Its design focuses on giving riders the right blend of float and control so they can tackle powder fields, variable spring slush or firm spur-of-the-moment lines beyond the groomers.

With a 108 mm waist, these skis deliver enough surface area to stay on top of soft snow while still feeling nimble when you need to edge into firmer terrain. The tip and tail widths (148 mm and 130 mm) help initiate turns smoothly, and the flat mounting plate means you can fit your preferred bindings without extra drilling. At 1.6 kg per ski, they’ll ease the effort on the climb up but remain stable underfoot on the way down.

The listed 18 m radius describes the natural arc these skis trace in a carve—large enough for stable high-speed turns yet responsive enough for tighter bends. The sidecut dimensions (148/108/130) shape how the ski bites into snow and releases from a turn, giving you consistent feedback in varied conditions. Weighing in between 1.5 and 1.75 kg per ski places them in the freetouring category, meaning they’re light enough for long ascents while still robust for demanding freeride descents.
