OVERALL WINNER /// SKI

Dupraz Sports D2 Skis 

When aquatic and snow elements fuse into skiing shapes: an innovation for every skier, bringing great performance

and pleasure at once, on piste and powder. New skiing sensations.

 

Innovation

Very important surface area compared to the ski length. Asymmetrical shape: switching the skis improves performances on piste or in powder. A longer and smoother nose profile, bringing great acceleration. A new carving capacity for a wide ski.

 

Design

3 designs for each ski length: “BackCurve” (sport/performance), “The Quest” (prestige), “HappyD” (fancy/colorful) or “White Quest” (sober classic). Asymmetrical top sheet artwork and sidewall angles showing the ridden position: “Powder” or “Piste”.

 

Performance

The pointy nose cuts out the deep snow, provides faster floa- tation with less efforts and an incredible acceleration. Grip on hard snow, easier access to powerful carvings. Great stability at high speed, especially in difficult snow conditions.

 

Jury Statement

 

“We decided to give the award to Dupraz D2 because of many things, especially the particular symmetrical shape. The design is simple and minimal but stylish, which is an important factor. It’s possible to use the ski for more versatile purposes. The D2 ski can be used on piste and on powder, and obtain different performances in powder or when you cross the slopes. Dupraz Sports implement great craftsmanship and use of materials.”
