Skis comparison — 2014-2015 season
Compare two models
How they compare
Both target freeride terrain, while the Surface Analog leans more all mountain, while the Surface Ruess leans more powder. They share a twin tip shape — symmetrical tips for skiing switch and park; playful and forgiving. Both feature hybrid (rocker/camber) profiles — mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile. At $259 vs $449.95 MSRP, the Surface Analog is the more budget-friendly option.
