Skis comparison — 2014-2015 season
Compare two models
How they compare
Both target powder terrain, while the Surface Outsider leans more freeride. They share a twin tip shape — symmetrical tips for skiing switch and park; playful and forgiving. Both feature flat_rocker profiles — lifted contact points for easier turn initiation, float in soft snow, and a catch-free feel. At $159 vs $179.95 MSRP, the Surface Lab is the more budget-friendly option.
