Assez léger pour une grande journée d'accès à propulsion humaine et suffisamment agile pour tirer le meilleur parti de n'importe quel terrain, The Reason 120 est la forme des jours dont nous rêvons tous. Une large largeur au patin de 120 mm offre une flottabilité sans effort dans la poudreuse la plus profonde et la plus légère, tandis qu'un rayon de braquage vif de 20 m permet au Reason de rester facile à gérer sur les terrains étroits. Le noyau Algal et le mur Algal du Reason fonctionnent conjointement pour fournir une stabilité et une rigidité en torsion supplémentaires à la plate-forme, lui permettant d'être conduite durement dans une neige variable. Dans l'ensemble, le Reason est un ski dédié aux plaisirs de la neige profonde qui brille toujours dans des conditions moins bonnes.

OUR COMPONENTS

Algal Core

Algal Core is a vertically laminated composite of biobased high density polyurethane and domestically sourced aspen. This combination reduces weight and offers damping properties otherwise unattainable in solid wood core construction while remaining stable and intuitive to ride. Polyurethane biobased carbon content 41% by ASTM D6866-18 Method B.

Algal Wall

Algal Wall is a biobased cast polyurethane sidewall that protects the Algal Core and delivers better damping than a traditional, petroleum based ABS sidewall. Unlike traditional manufacturing techniques, we use a channel in the outside of the core as a mold for pouring in the liquid sidewall material. This creates a virtually seamless and unbreakable bond with the aspen as the sidewall hardens, increasing the overall structural integrity of the snowboard. This novel manufacturing technique diverts plastic waste from the landfill compared to traditional use of extruded plastic sidewalls. Polyurethane biobased carbon content ~68% by ASTM D6866-18 Method B.

Spiral Plate

Spiral Plate binding insert outperforms our traditional maple inserts in pullout strength testing conducted in house, resulting in better binding screw retention and enabling a more even, longitudinal flexing ski. SpiralMade™ materials are made using waste from our production process in Salt Lake City, diverting materials that would otherwise go straight to the landfill and using them to boost product performance.

People will ski this ski and say “hell yeah”

Thursday: pick up my Reason 120s, mounted with kingpins, and skins thanks to the fringe sale

Friday: cut my hair into a mullet

Saturday and Sunday: rip the new sticks around Baker during one of the last storms of the season.

These skis are so much fun. They can lock into all sorts of turn shapes thanks to the reverse camber. They pivot, slash, but also can take massive turns down steep lines. The short(er) turn radius for this ski makes a huge difference in how easy they are to maneuver. I’ve ridden other skis with similar shape that feel like a chore to swing around, these on the other hand are super intuitive. I feel like they maneuver just as well as my 104 touring skis, but float much better. They aren’t really that heavy either, did a few full days of touring on them, like 7-8 hours, and they’re fine. Like sure they’re heavier than a 100mm ski, but these also ski much better than that ski. I haven’t skied them in true bottomless snow yet but I’m super excited to. I have skied them on some very firm wind-buffed snow on a steep slope and again they just were so easy to ski on. It was not what I expected from a 120 mm ski, but I’m super happy about it!

Really the only limitation I’ve found is that due to the closer to center mount point, they were sometimes tricky for me on steeper switchbacks. But I think that’s more to do with the fact that I’m shorter and got the 184. I don’t regret it though bc they ski so well.

I even was trying to channel my inner Pep with some 180s off some lil backcountry kickers in the baker side country.

Great ski, can’t wait to keep rippin em. I think this ski will be in my quiver for years to come.

Boon, you LEGEND! Absolutly psyched to hear about your weekend, we're glad to be a part of it. Keep treading light and charging hard, we'll see you out there!

ATE THAT S*** UP!

I demoed the 177 Reverse Reasons, and it was a revelation. For the first time ever, I truly felt like I was effortlessly surfing the earth on skis. I unexpectedly hit a jump straight into moguls and seamlessly maneuvered out of them, thanks to the wide platform that effortlessly absorbed whatever I threw at it. I glided through tighter trees with unprecedented ease. Despite their slightly heavier feel compared to my usual go-to, the Vital 98s, I discovered that this slight extra weight actually became an advantage, especially on the groomers. The stability they provided allowed me to carve with an unparalleled grip, which was new for me on a reverse camber ski. I know what I'm adding to my quiver this year!

Reasons in Hokkaido

I was happy with the performance of the Reason 120 RC during a trip to Hokkaido. Float was outstanding as one would expect and manoeuvrability was highly impressive for a +2kg, 184cm ski. Unsurprising for a ski that was said to be developed/tested in Japan. The option of being able to order reverse camber is a huge drawcard to WNDR Alpine and a natural pairing for this ski.

Happy with the recommended mount point and overall flex. Possibly a bit more flex in the front end could be beneficial. The tail feels supportive enough, keeping in mind Hokkaido powder is about as soft as it gets. I definitely wouldn't want to increase the sidecut as high manoeuvrability and being able to easily slash and pivot is one of these ski's key traits. Getting the ski down to 2000g would be a nice to have but I don't think that is critical as it skis lighter than it is.

Wonderful Skis these WNDR Reason 120

tremendous in the powder and I can turn them in the junk and on groomers as well as my Nordica all mountains. Lover these skis. Got them at the Wonder Alpine SLC store, the folks there are great, explain the technology and techniques.

Shredding Heaven: My Love Affair with the WNDR Reason 120 Reverse Camber

Bought it for powder, can't pick up another ski.

Let me tell you about the ride of my life – the WNDR Reason 120 Reverse Camber ski. This bad boy ain't just a pair of skis; it's a freaking revelation!

Picture this: you're knee-deep in powder, and instead of fighting to stay afloat, you're gliding effortlessly like a boss. That's the Reason 120 for you – it's like it was born to surf those snowy waves, making every run feel like a powder paradise.

When it comes to dodging trees, this ski is like a ninja on steroids. It slices through the thickest forest like it's nothing, giving you that rush of adrenaline as you zip through those tight gaps like a pro. Truly amazing how nimble this ski feels.

And get this – even on hard-packed snow, this baby holds its own. Seriously, its a charger I was carving up those groomers like a hot knife through butter. It's got this insane grip that makes you feel like you're glued to the slope.

I am on the 184 but wish I would have gone 191, 5’10.5 175

In a nutshell, the WNDR Reason 120 Reverse Camber ski is my new ride or die, maybe even a one ski quiver for some. It's got everything – pow performance, tree agility, and hardcore carving chops. I'm telling you, once you go Reason 120, you never go back.
