The Origin 106 was built with big mountains in mind. Liberty is based in Avon, Colorado, just a stone-roll downhill from Beaver Creek Resort. And when they develop their freeriding Origin skis, it's pretty obvious they've got Birds of Prey, Cherry Chutes, and Stone Creek Chutes in mind (FYI, those are all zones you need to go ski at Beaver Creek). The 106mm waist width of the Origin 106 is just nimble enough to negotiate steep bumps, helped out by rocker in the tip and tail and a forgiving-yet-sturdy wood core with carbon and one strip of vertically laminated metal. Those traits help it excel in tight trees, too. When you want to open things up, whether in mixed snow or plush powder, the Origin 106 performs like a big-mountain ski. Sturdy, smeary, poppy, surfy. Garnish this insanely versatile build with a silhouetted mountainscape on the topsheets, and you get a ski with the Rocky Mountains in its DNA.
