{"product_id":"2027-line-blend-skis-ln261774","title":"2027 Line Blend Skis","description":"\u003cp\u003eWill Wesson's signature freestyle ski, the Line Blend is a flexy jib stick built for street and park imagination. A reinforced aspen core, twin tip shape, and Carbon Ollieband come together for a ski that presses and butters as easily as it stomps switch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy we like it:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCarbon Ollieband is the move that sets this ski apart. The carbon reinforcement lets you load up presses and butters without overflexing the ski, so the press feels intentional rather than wobbly. Pair that with the Butter Zone flex pattern and you've got a ski that wants to spin and slide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho it's for:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePark-focused intermediate through expert skiers who live for street features, rail jams, and creative line choices. Less ideal for skiers who want one ski for the whole mountain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHighlights:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Blend's headline construction story is the Carbon Ollieband, a band of uni-directional carbon laid into the ski to reinforce the press and butter zones. It's not a stiffness add for the whole ski; it's a targeted reinforcement that makes the flex pattern more intentional. The aspen core keeps things light and snappy, which is what you want for spinning, and the Butter Zone Flex Pattern softens the tip and tail just enough to make presses easy without making the ski feel sloppy when you're just lapping the park. Underfoot, the Blend gets enough structure to stomp landings without folding. The 98mm waist is wide enough to handle some all-mountain duty when you wander out of the park, but the symmetric twin tip shape and 20-meter average radius make it clear the Blend is built for freestyle skiing first. There's enough ski here to take the rigors of a full season of street features, urban rails, and resort park laps.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThings to consider:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a freestyle ski, not an all-mountain ski. The wider waist gives some versatility but the soft flex pattern and twin tip shape mean it's not going to carve like a stiffer all-mountain ski. Skiers looking for a one-ski quiver should look elsewhere in the lineup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFit \u0026amp; sizing considerations:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSizes true to length for a freestyle ski. Most park skiers will pick a length around chin to nose height; size up for stability on bigger jumps, size down for quickness on rails.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Line","offers":[{"title":"163","offer_id":51757318209832,"sku":"LN261774|163","price":674.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"169","offer_id":51757318242600,"sku":"LN261774|169","price":674.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"175","offer_id":51757318275368,"sku":"LN261774|175","price":674.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"180","offer_id":51757318308136,"sku":"LN261774|180","price":674.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/5135\/6456\/files\/2027-line-blend-skis-ln261774-1-ln261774.jpg?v=1778769540","url":"https:\/\/checkout.skiessentials.com\/products\/2027-line-blend-skis-ln261774","provider":"Ski Essentials","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
