Touring skis Zag SLAP 104 LITE Mixed - 2025

Zag Slap 104 touring skis are highly appreciated for their versatility and downhill performance, while offering a good compromise for uphill skiing, especially in the freeride/touring category.

Field tests show that the Zag Slap 104 is a real pleasure to ski in powder. It floats easily thanks to its width and double rocker. Downhill, it is judged to be a powerful ski, which retains good stability at high speeds, yet is playful enough for more creative maneuvers in varied terrain.

On the uphill, although its weight is noticeable compared to lighter models, it remains perfectly usable for ski touring, especially on outings where downhill is a priority. For long high-mountain traverses or more technical ascents, it could be a bit of an effort penalty.

The Zag Slap 104 is designed for intermediate to expert skiers, who are looking for a ski capable of performing in freeride and backcountry, while retaining the ability to climb in ski touring mode. It's the ideal ski for those who prefer downhill skiing and want good flotation in powder, while retaining good maneuverability.

The Zag Slap 104 is an excellent choice for freeride enthusiasts who want a versatile ski to attack off-piste, without sacrificing touring ability. Its versatility on powder and trafficked snow, combined with good downhill stability, makes it a popular ski for those who want to combine fun downhill with lightness uphill. However, for skiers looking above all for a light ski for long ascents, it can be a little heavy.
