Description

Black Diamond finally unveil their free touring line of skis which bridges the gap between freeriding and touring. Their name: the Link. The series incorporates 3 skis each having a specific width. Choose the one that best suits you and go shred!

What can the Black Diamond Link 105 do?

The Link 105 is the widest Link and therefore the most freeride-oriented one. We may be stating the obvious but this ski was designed with deep powder and untracked slopes in mind. But above this, the most important was to make it light. Black D stripped down the ski until they got rid of every unnecessary materials. They utilised a paulownia woodcore offering lightweight and responsiveness as well as agility. Just use it with skins on and begin climbing to realise how light it is. Despite a 105mm waist you’ll make your ascents easily and keep your legs fresh and happy for the descent. On the downhill, you should have more fun than a cat playing with a ball of wool. The ski floats and manoeuvers elegantly through the deep allowing skiers with ambitions to progress their freeride game. On the other hand, if there isn’t much powder in the resort, the Link handles hard snow very well and delivers reactivity and precision on it. In other words, the Link 105 is a consistent ski that works up and downhill, on and off piste. What else could you possibly want?

Who is the Black Diamond Link 105 designed for?

We recommend the model to advanced skier looking for a fat freetouring ski that’s light enough to be brought anywhere on the mountain. Effortless when skinning up and mindblowing when skiing down, the Link 105 is a great choice.

Tips and advice

On glisshop.co.uk, you may feel overwhelmed by the amount of products we sell. How can you find the right skis, which ones can suit your level, your style or your budget?

Your options: 

1. The advanced search engine: You'll find it everywhere on our website, as a sidebar on our listing pages. It allows you to select conditions and refine your selection: brand, level, style, etc. When you select them, only the relevant products will show. 

2. You can contact us on the 020 3129 3301: skis feature fine technologies and affect your safety. It is important to make sure that the skis you've selected will suit you. Call our landline and get in touch with our team for any questions regarding these products. 

During the process or your order, we'll ask you to complete a form about the mounting of your bindings. With these details, we will be able to mount the bindings with the correct settings. The release value of the bindings is set by a professional skiman, and according to the norm AFNOR FD S 52-748.

If you don't have your own ski boots when you order, the bindings will be pre-mounted. The final settings can be done :

- by a shop if you are renting your ski boots

- by our skiman : you can call us for any technical questions. Our skiman will do the final settings for you. Telephone : 020 3129 3301

All skis you purchase on our website are factory-waxed and tuned. This means they are ready to hit the slopes. However, gear tends to wear and in order to keep it in its best shape, you need to maintain base and edges on a regular basis.

Maintaining your skis is essential for a smooth glide and a solit grip. Frequency of maintenance may vary depending on how often you use your skis, or on how damaged they are. We recommend you to wax them every 10 riding days and at the end of the season. Edges need to be tuned up to 2 times per season if you want to keep a good edge control. However, don't overdo it. Tuning is basically scraping off material. If you do it too often, the edges will vanish after some time.

When your base is damaged and shows shallow scratches or rock gouge, it is possible to repair it.

You can get these repairs done by professional ski shop, or if the gouge is only superficial you may repair it yourself. To do so, you will need special tools and materials such as wax, Ptex for repairing bases, edge sharpeners, etc. You can find them on our website.

All products benefit from a manufacturer guarantee, as long as the damage is caused by a manufacturing defect (may it be hidden or obvious).

Usually, the manufacturer guarantee lasts two years.

Only the manufacturer is able to decide if there has been a 'manufacturing defect' or a 'misuse'. Glisshop is only an intermediary between you and the manufacturer.

The manufacturer's guarantee will not apply if the problem comes from a misuse.
