Studio progressive twin
The slightly skinnier tail and wider tip lead to superior downhill performance vs a symmetrical twin. Tip & tail height are identical, however, for optimal switch skiing. The generous rocker and modest camber lead to a wonderfully playful character, while the moderate taper and Elliptical Sidecut provide precise handling and carving.

Great ski for big mountain skiing

"It can handle high speeds in both pouder and harder terrain. Love the ski, can really rely on this one"

Nate Lewis studio 3

"Great free ride/ powder ski. This is lighter/ wider touring set up. I love it already and will be a great asset to my guiding this season in Japan. This ski with a pin binding can take high speeds and deep snow like an ice breaker. So much fun and playful yet still allows for technical turns. Mounted at recommended (new school) allows me to be more playful than I usually ever am. Beautiful ski!"

Brilliant

"They are just perfect. Very playful, handles every terrain."

Playful Powerhouse

"I’m skiing these after the unfortunate loss of my CT 3. 0s (favorite planks I’ve ever skied) and seeing that these skis had the same shape, I was hoping to get a similar experience. I have not been disappointed. These skis are the perfect balance of play, float, and aggression. The flex, camber, sidecut, and rocker come together to create a maneuverable machine that, in my opinion, excels in a multitude of scenarios, including freeride lines and steeps with both soft and variable snow, freestyle maneuvers, and pure pow. The only place these skis leave something to be desired is at low speed, where they’re a bit twitchy, which is something I come to expect at this waist width."

Fabulous ski - great fun

"Great ski for any condition and terrain. Excellent in powder of course, but also in crud and on groomers. Simply makes the day more fun."

Laurence (5/5)

I have 110 days skiing on these skis

"I rode this skis everyday practically this past season wether it be Teaching a ski lesson or freeriding. Through powder, ice, and slush and these skis have performed amazingly. Buttering and throwing rotations onto and off of rails is amazing and I love going massive on jumps in these skis. All around an amazing all mountain ski and superb powder ski, If I was able to post my tiktok or insta on this you'd see videos of me ripping on them"

Jacob H. (5/5)

Excellent all-rounder

"I had high expectations for the Mana 3 and the skis are better than I expected! They handle well in chop and on groomed runs and are in their element as the snow gets deeper. Highly recommend these!"

Floats like butter on bread

"So smooth and easy to ski in powder and variable snow"

Couldnt be more stoked!

"Tahoe here, I wanted a pow-specific ski to replace my aged Candide 108's 190cm, (very chargy), and my heavy slow-to-spin Enforcer 110's 191cm. I was expecting good things with the Studio 3 112, (190cm), hopeful for an intuitive ski in the air and snow. 18"" new and first day on them I was super stoked at how intuitive they were, friendly and responsive in trees and chutes yet directionally stable at speed. Of course they delivered the brand promise off the grand with playful air balance, it's like these skis can read my mind. Can't wait for a ripper big day, love them!"

Krak A. (5/5)

Stable like a heavy ski, Playful like a light ski

"I have been skiing for a very long time and these are by far my favorite skis I've ever owned. They provide stability on mixed snow and at high speeds as if they were heavy boats but can also be whipped around on a dime. I have a mixed ski style and will make traditional turns as well as swish my tails and have always had compromises trying to find a ski that could do one or the other well. This ski of course isn't as stable as a super directional, heavy ski, but it is really quite good. I love them so much!"
