Apo Rise Up FS vs Apo STW

How they compare

Both skis are designed for all mountain and freestyle / park riding. They share a twin tip shape — symmetrical tips for skiing switch and park; playful and forgiving. The Apo Rise Up FS has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the Apo STW uses flat_rocker (lifted contact points for easier turn initiation, float in soft snow, and a catch-free feel). At $125 vs $279 MSRP, the Apo STW is the more budget-friendly option.
