Introducing: The Special Forces Pioneer 96.

We created the Special Forces Collection to pay homage to the individuals who have served in our Special Forces in the past as well as those who are active now. Artwork by Travis Parr.

ABOUT THE PIONEER 96:

For the 22/23 season we have maintained the modified shape of the Pioneer 96 of last season, with a reduced rocker in the tail to give the Pioneer more directional aesthetic and better all-mountain performance. The Pioneer 96 is our true one-ski-quiver, with the versatility needed to excel in any condition the mountain has to offer. Its tapered shape combined with 5mm of camber underfoot and our Poplar Power Core make this ski snappy, responsive, and stable at speed. It offers power, versatility, and responsiveness in a shape that excels all over the mountain.

*Base colors may vary.

FAQ

What size ski am I?

Please see our sizing guide here.

--

Where should I mount my skis?

Every Icelantic Ski features a BC-I mark on the left side of the ski next to the serial number. This is our recommended “Boot Center” mounting point for the majority of skiers who want to be the most balanced over their ski.

Our new 24/25 Freeride Collection (Nomads and Maidens) also have a PC-I mark. This is our recommended freeride mounting point “Progressive Center” and should be used by people wanting a more neutral stance. Being closer to the camber height gives the ski more natural pop and balances the swing weight of the ski. This is where you mount your skis if you want a maneuverable, poppy, all mountain jib stick to accompany you as you jump and stomp every feature on the mountain.

Every Ski also features a CC-I mark. This is the “Core Center” mark and should only be used for those looking for a true center mount. This mostly applies to park skiers and otherwise should mainly be used as a reference.

--

What binding do you recommend?

There are a lot of good bindings out there these days -- you can shop our favorite (and the ones we trust the most) here. We recommend a binding that has a brake width that fits over the width of your ski but no more than 10mm wider.

--

What type of tune do your skis leave the factory with?

Every Icelantic Ski comes fresh out of the wrapper with a 1 degree edge and 1 degree base bevel. All of our skis come with a universal wax.

--

Why do my new skis have a different topsheet material than my old Icelantics?

Our new 24/25 Freeride Collection has a new matte topsheet material. This topsheet provides the same durability as our classic Carbonium material with better print quality and a new sleek look. We hope you enjoy!
