Technical Specs

The poplar cores used in Ferreol skis come from sustainable forests. This means they are cut with the greatest respect for the environment. Selective cutting is carried out to improve forest regeneration. To minimize waste, the wood is assembled and travels less than 100 km before arriving at the manufacturing plant in Rimouski. Finally, poplar makes skis lighter and more resistant.

The birch mounting plate of the Pionnier 104 adds additional strength under the boot while minimizing the added mass. Birch allows the Pionnier to safely hold your binding while remaining light and playful.

Our polyamide topsheet is 50% bio-based, made up of 20% recycled materials and comes from castor oil. This makes our skis extremely durable and waterproof, which guarantees the longevity of our products. In addition, the graphics are digitally printed on this material, which reduces the environmental impact of our topsheet.

Although the fiberglass is not as stiff as carbon fiber, it is stronger. Strength is the capacity of a fiber not to break under the force of a load. This is why this fiber is the ideal choice when it comes to adding strength and sustainability to skis.

Carbon fiber has the perfect mechanical properties for the construction of high-end skis. It is also well suited to hiking skis, due to its excellent weigth/stiffness ratio. Carbon makes the ski light on the climb, but solid on the descent.

We use the Super Sap epoxy of Entropy Resins in all our skis. This epoxy is bio-based, which means that the materials used for its manufacture come from renewable organic matter. In addition, this epoxy offers the same performance as traditional resins, but with a lower environmental impact.

Carbon footprint of the materials of the Pionnier

Balanced use of fiberglass and carbon fiber allows Pionnier to be performant while reducing its ecological footprint. In addition, the birch mounting plate as well as the topsheet and the biosourced epoxy decrease its impact on the environment.
