PRESENTATION OF THE BLACK DIAMOND IMPULSE TI 104
A freerando ski designed to do it all
The Black Diamond Impulse Ti 104 is aimed at skiers looking for a ski capable of performing efficiently in a wide variety of conditions. With its 104 mm underfoot, it positions itself as a versatile model intended for freerando enthusiasts, backcountry, and long routes where downhill quality remains a priority.
Its modern geometry combines a rocker in the tip and tail with a classic camber underfoot. This configuration promotes both flotation in deep snow, maneuverability in varied terrains, and grip when conditions become firmer or more technical.
A construction focused on stability and precision
The Impulse Ti 104 benefits from a construction built around a poplar core combined with high-performance fiberglass. A layer of Titanal reinforces the whole to improve stability, power transmission, and vibration absorption when the pace picks up.
The full-length ABS sidewalls and Flat-Top construction also contribute to the ski’s torsional rigidity, providing more precision and control in difficult snow as well as in the most challenging slopes.
Versatility and performance in the mountains
Designed to accompany skiers throughout the winter, the Black Diamond Impulse Ti 104 combines excellent flotation in powder with the level of support needed to maintain confidence and control when the snow becomes more compact. Its balance between playful behavior and stability makes it a model particularly suited for freerando outings where conditions can change rapidly during the day.
Manufactured in Europe and incorporating a significant proportion of recycled materials, the Impulse Ti 104 illustrates Black Diamond’s commitment to offering a modern ski combining performance, durability, and versatility. Intended for advanced to expert skiers, it is a particularly interesting solution for those who want a single ski capable of tackling both vast powdery expanses and the most demanding alpine terrains.
