Ski Specific Info: Brand new! Pristine condition!
Big, Fat, & Floaty. The A-Star is brand spankin’ new for 2013 and is the widest ski Prior has released to date. At up to 125mm underfoot the A-Star is Prior’s quiver ski for the super deep. The hybrid rocker profile allows the skis to be extremely nimble and versatile in a variety of soft snowpacks while guaranteeing the ability to come up for air when needed.
XTC Carbon Construction is available as an upgrade to all A-Stars and saves an average of 500 grams (1lb 1oz) off our regular quad glass Ski construction.
Profile: Hybrid Rocker
Best for: Steep and Deep. When coming up for air is a priority and when sticking deep landings is a must.
Rider Type: Expert off piste skiers.
Mounting Recommendations - The A Star’s mounting point is open to interpretation. Although Boot Center is recommended, it can be moved forward up to 5 cm’s for a progressive upright style skier and back as far as 2 cm’s from Boot Center for an aggressive race stanced skier.

Quadglass Construction
Quadraxial/Carbon glass is a stitched fabric with glass fibers running in four directions (30, 30, 0 and 90 degrees). It also contains two 6cm-wide, 9-count carbon strips running lengthwise along the center of each ski. The Quadglass material is layered on each side of a vertically laminated maple woodcores combined with UHMW sidewalls and bases and nylon topsheets. The fiberglass/carbon configuration of quad glass creates increased torsional and longitudinal stiffness. Quad glass is an excellent option for aggressive riders seeking additional stiffness, snap and a damp stable ride.
