Surface LAB 001 vs Surface Live Free

How they compare

Both target powder terrain, while the Surface Live Free leans more freeride. They share a twin tip shape — symmetrical tips for skiing switch and park; playful and forgiving. The Surface LAB 001 has a flat_rocker profile (lifted contact points for easier turn initiation, float in soft snow, and a catch-free feel), while the Surface Live Free uses hybrid (rocker/camber) (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). At $299.95 vs $359.2 MSRP, the Surface LAB 001 is the more budget-friendly option.
