The 2027 Line Poisson with Tyrolia Attack 14 GW Bindings is equal parts carver and slasher, a new freeride concept ski blending precise titanal-laminate hard-snow performance with a surf-inspired Stepped Tail. An aspen veneer core, zoned titanal placement, carbon stringers, and a stepped swallowtail come together for a ski that knifes carves on firm snow and breaks loose into surfy slashes when the snow softens. We paired the Poisson 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:

The Stepped Tail is the standout feature, borrowed from surfboard design. Breaking the running surface at a defined point makes the tail easy to slash or release on firm snow while leaving real surface area behind the step for float in powder. It is an unusual thing to find on a ski.

Who it's for:

Advanced and expert freeride skiers who want a one-ski quiver blending hard-snow precision with soft-snow play. Particularly suited to skiers who appreciate creative ski design and want something different from standard freeride builds.

Highlights:

The titanal layout is the first piece of the puzzle: a full strip of metal underfoot for stability and edge hold, with segmented flanges in the tip and tail freeing up the flex for energy and liveliness. That is a different approach from the full-sheet titanal in most freeride skis, and it hands the Poisson a more playful character without costing precision. Underneath, an aspen veneer core keeps things snappy while uni-directional carbon stringers add pop where the toned-down camber profile gives some away. The Stepped Tail is both the visual and functional differentiator, a defined break in the running surface that makes the ski feel shorter and looser on firm snow yet longer and more balanced in deep snow. Moderate tip rocker keeps turn entry smooth, and nearly flat camber lets the aggressive sidecut work without feeling locked in beneath a 110 mm waist. 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:

The Stepped Tail design is unusual and takes getting used to. Skiers who want a traditional freeride feel may find the looseness of the tail distracting, and the lighter titanal layout means this is not as damp as a full-metal-laminate alternative. Call it a specific tool for skiers who appreciate the design philosophy.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Length runs true, and because the Stepped Tail makes the effective edge feel shorter than the overall length, most skiers will be happy on their usual size.
