The 4FRNT EHP is a big mountain powder ski, if you like to slay the gnar on a blower day then this is the ski for you. With its early rise tips, 122 mm waist and flat camber under foot the EHP has superb flotation on powder and blasts over the crud. The EHP’s trad side-cut and slight pin-tail shape in the back means this powder ski can also serve you well when you’re forced to ski groomers. We skied on the proto-types designed by Eric Hjorleifson at Snowbasin, Utah and had a blast, hated to give them back.

Dislikes

If I was going to ski nothing but hardpack and bumps all day I wouldn’t choose the EHP.
