The 2027 DPS Kaizen 100 with Tyrolia Attack 14 GW Bindings reworks the Kaizen platform around a more mainstream all-mountain waist while holding onto the surfy, intuitive character DPS is known for. A short turn radius and balanced rocker keep it approachable up front, with plenty of performance under the hood. We paired the Kaizen 100 with the Tyrolia Attack 14 GW because of the Attack’s light weight, reliability, and ease-of-use for all mountain and freeride skiers. Additionally, ample elastic travel and direct power transmission function to ensure these bindings cater perfectly to the needs of demanding freeriders.

Why we like it:

Few all-mountain skis this wide feel this quick. The short radius and a healthy dose of tip rocker leave the Kaizen 100 nimble underfoot, pivoting, slarving, and slashing with a lightness most skis its size never find.

Who it's for:

Intermediate through expert skiers chasing one do-it-all ride that floats in soft snow yet never demands expert input on firm. It rewards anyone who prefers a lively, quick feel over a heavy, planted one.

Highlights:

High-modulus full carbon laminates sandwich a Patented Dual Layer Wood Core of poplar paired with ash: the poplar keeps things light and responsive while the ash lends damping and edge grip you rarely feel from a carbon ski. A Carbon Power Plate sits underfoot, routing energy straight into the ski for a locked-in feel through the turn. A 100 mm waist rides under a rocker-to-edge balance tuned to do a bit of everything, quick enough to pivot yet grippy enough to hold. A World Cup Race Base wears factory Phantom Glide for speed that is sorted from day one, backed by Rockwell 48 steel edges for grip. With a low stand height of just 17 millimeters, the 2027 Tyrolia Attack 14 offers an impressively close connection to the snow, delivering precise power transmission and a confident, locked-in feel. The FR Pro3 toe piece allows for a full 180 degrees of boot release, enhancing safety in a variety of fall scenarios, while the AFS (Anti-Friction Slider) ensures reliable re-centering and consistent release characteristics. Built to withstand hard use, the Attack 14 combines durability with performance, making it a go-to option for aggressive skiers who demand trust in their gear.

Things to consider:

That classic short radius is a blast, but it can feel busy at high speed through long, open turns. If your skiing is mostly fast and big, the longer-radius Kaizen 105 is the sharper choice.

Fit & sizing considerations:

The Kaizen 100 sizes true, so go with the all-mountain length you normally ride.
