Black Diamond Equipment: Joule Skis

A women's version of the Kilowatt, the Joule is infused with boundless energy for the dedicated winterholic. Its geometry and Torsion Box construction combine to create a stable ski with a wide 95-mm-waisted platform and generous sidecut: ideal for ripping big mountain lines. Torsionally, the Joule is powerfully stiff to hold an edge, transmit power and carve forcefully on hard snow. The longitudinal flex, however, is more relaxed for quicker turns and a reliable, forgiving ride. Formula One Technology controls high-speed jitters and dampens the hard knocks of variable conditions.
