Our factory blems are largely due to cosmetic imperfections that do not hinder the performance or durability of the ski or board. There is nothing wrong with the integrity of these skis or boards and we back the warranty on these just as we would any production A-grade ski or board.  Plus, our Love It or Return It policy does apply to these as well.  All 21/22 blems are listed at a significant discount below retail price based on the issue. 

Explanations and/or photos of specific blemishes are available upon request.  For any additional questions, do not hesitate to reach us via email to hello@wndr-alpine.com, live chat (left side of any page on the website) or by phone at 801.415.1815. 

Do you know the feeling when a ski continues to amaze you, no matter the conditions or terrain? That’s the Vital 100. Built for the alpine, it’s a tool for managing the multitude of conditions you’ll encounter on your journey to salvation. Responsiveness and control are its mainstay attributes, providing incredible stability for its weight while its snappy, quick-witted pivotability lets you charge without restraint. The secret of the Vital 100’s serious, yet lighthearted demeanor lies in the integration of advanced biobased materials, which allow you to reach new heights in any terrain and descend from the highest peaks without unprecedented poise and stability.

    FEATURES

    • Strength, Stiffness & Binding Retention Data.
    • Utilizes novel biobased materials derived from microalgae, designed from the ground up for ski performance. See our Biotechnology section below for further details.
    • Two camber profiles available for each length. Choose a shape for your skiing style; positive camber for versatility, greater edge contact on piste and a more traditional feel, or reverse camber for the ultimate in playful, off-piste float, charging, and pivotability.
    • Designed, developed, tested and fabricated in Salt Lake City, Utah USA.

    BIOTECHNOLOGY

    • Our Algal Core is a composite of vertically laminated, domestically sourced aspen sandwiched between high-density, algal polyurethane stringers which ensure a solid but lightweight platform. Biobased carbon content is 41.58% by ASTM D6866.
    • Updated Algal Wall sidewalls are made utilizing a proprietary biobased cast polyurethane, engineered to improve edge hold and stability, while also increasing bondline strength over traditional materials, all while improving biobased content and durability over last year’s Algal Wall. Algal Wall utilizes a novel manufacturing technique that diverts plastic waste from the landfill compared to ABS plastic sidewalls. Biobased carbon content 68.89% by ASTM D6866. See why it's better.
    • Biobased Super Sap® technology replaces traditional petroleum-based resin systems. We use Entropy Resins® to minimize the carbon footprint of our products. The certified bio-based content per ASTM D6866 of the ER-305 Resin is ~28%.
