Intro

When it comes to playful powder skis, Eric Pollard is arguably one of the most influential and important figures in the industry. With his help, Line was able to create iconic skis like the Elizabeth, Sir Francis Bacon, EP Pro, Mr. Pollard’s Opus, Pescado, and many other skis designed to let skiers slash, spin, flip, and butter their way through deep snow.

The newest ski that Eric’s been working on is the Outline, which will be Line’s widest freestyle ski for 19/20.

The Outline effectively replaces the current Line Magnum Opus and Mordecai, and, like the 19/20 Sir Francis Bacon, the Outline features convex tips and tails. We’ve already talked a bit about the Outline and Sir Francis Bacon on our GEAR:30 podcast, but here we’ll go over the Outline’s design and how it compares to the skis it replaces, and others on the market.

What Line says about the Outline

“Equipped with Convex Base Technology to open up new possibilities in turn shape, the LINE Outline Skis are the ultimate development of freestyle powder ski design. Slarve, drift, and plane in any snow condition. Building on years of twin-tip ski design, the LINE Outline is the ultimate collaboration between Eric Pollard and LINE Skis.”

First, saying that the Outline is the “ultimate collaboration between Eric Pollard and LINE Skis” is a very bold statement. Eric and Line have made a lot of very good skis, so the Outline has a lot to live up to.

+

+
+
+
+
+

But the Outline’s Convex Base Tech does set its design apart from previous Line skis. And after our initial time on the Outline and Sir Francis Bacon, we do think that Line has a reason to be hyping up these ski’s ability to slarve, drift, and plane (you can listen to our GEAR:30 podcast for more on that).

Shape / Rocker Profile

Apart from its convex tips and tails, the Outline looks very similar to many of Eric Pollard’s recent pow skis like the Mordecai and Magnum Opus. The Outline has fat tips and tails, with a bit of early taper. But unlike many current playful pow skis like the Prior CBC, Salomon QST 118, J Skis Friend, and Armada ARV 116 JJ, the Outline’s tips and tails don’t start tapering very early, and they also don’t taper to much of a point.

Compared to the new Sir Francis Bacon, the Outline actually has slightly less tip and tail taper, presumably to increase float in deep snow.

The Outline’s longitudinal rocker profile is also very reminiscent of the Magnum Opus and Mordecai. The Outline has pretty deep tip and tail rocker lines, but they’re not crazy deep by today’s standards. The Outline’s rocker lines also rise pretty gradually until you get to the ends of the ski, where the tips and tails splay out significantly.

Flex Pattern

Here’s how we’d characterize the flex pattern of the Outline:

Tips: 6-6.5
Shovels: 7-7.5
In Front of Toe Piece: 8-9.5
Underfoot: 9.5
Behind the Heel Piece: 9.5-8.5
Tails: 8-6

Unlike the Mordecai (especially the 193 cm version), the Outline is not a very stiff ski. Its tips and tails are pretty soft, and they slowly ramp up in stiffness as you get to the center of the ski. Overall, the Outline has a nearly symmetrical flex pattern with smooth transitions and no noticeable hinge points.

Compared to the 19/20 Sir Francis Bacon, the Outline is similarly soft at the ends, but ramps up quicker and is noticeably stiffer around the bindings.

Compared to the J Skis Friend, the Outline’s extremities are a bit softer, but the Outline’s flex pattern ramps up quicker. Compared to the 4FRNT Inthayne and Moment Wildcat / Blister Pro, the Outline is similarly soft at the very ends of the ski, but both the Wildcat and Inthayne stiffen up quicker and, apart from the ends, are significantly stiffer throughout.

Weight

Like the new Sir Francis Bacon, current SFB, Mordecai, and Magnum Opus, the Outline is a pretty light ski. At just over 2000 grams per ski for the 186 cm version, the Outline is one of the lightest pow skis we’ve reviewed.

For reference, here are a number of our measured weights (per ski, in grams) for some notable skis. As always, note the length differences to keep things apples to apples.

Bottom Line (For Now)

The Line Outline follows a long line of prolific and iconic playful pow skis. The Outline’s design doesn’t stray too far from its ancestors’, but we’re already pretty psyched about the result. Blister Members can read our initial on-snow impressions in our Flash Review linked below, and then stay tuned for our full review.

    “the LINE Outline Skis are the ultimate development of freestyle powder ski design…the LINE Outline is the penultimate collaboration between Eric Pollard and LINE Skis.”

    +

    So, these are the best freestyle powder skis ever, but EP + Line are going to make one ski after them?

    Hey guys – I’m probably a bit behind the curve in terms of ski news, but if Line are describing this ski as “the penultimate” collaboration with Eric it seems to indicate that there’s only one more EP / Line collaboration left. Does this mean that Line and EP are going to be parting ways? Or do you think they meant something else?

    +
    +

    The best powder freestyle ski Line and Pollard have made was the EP Pro, the rest of his skis have just been chasing the lasted trends, the EP Pro was unique

    First, saying that the Outline is the “penultimate collaboration between Eric Pollard and LINE Skis” is a very bold statement.

    +

    I think “penultimate” means second to last….
