Palmer Ski Review

Snowboard manufacturer Palmer’s foray into skiing is headlined by the P01. LA-based artist Chase was commissioned to ink one of the available topsheets, which includes eyeballs covering the top and base of the skis. Palmer was one of the pleasant surprises of the test this year.




P01 LE/P01



Length: 163, 171, 179

Dimensions: 127-87-118 @ 179

MSRP: $750 Stoke: 7.5

Playfulness: 9 All-Mtn: 7


Palmer stepped to the challenge of making skis, and our testers applauded. “I was super impressed,” said one of our testers, “the flex pattern was consistent throughout.” Another was “pleasantly surprised… it is very energetic and fun.” Our testers found the P01 to be a bit too soft for the pipe; one tester likened it to “spreading butter on toast in the morning, that’s how soft it is.”
