Line Sir Francis Bacon Downhill Skis Frequently Asked Questions
Product Description
Line Sir Francis Bacon skis are a wider all-mountain freestyle ski. One of Line’s most popular skis, the Sir Francis Bacon is an excellent fit for skiers who are looking to progress their skills in the park, and in the backcountry. 3D Convex Tip and Tail Technology adds convex contouring to improve the feel of the ski and improve overall control and float. The Sidewall Construction with ultra high-density Polyethylene vertical walls over the edges helps absorb negative vibrations and provide powerful energy transmission. A blend of lightweight Paulownia and Maple in the core maintains the lightweight nature of these skis and creates the best strength-to-weight ratio. The Symmetrical Flex Pattern contributes to easy switch skiing and landings.
Expert Notes
Sir Francis Bacon skis are the top all-mountain ski from Line. Capable of laying down some trenches on groomers while providing ample float when you find untouched pow stashes, the SFB’s have long been a staple for all-mountain freestyle skiers. A Partly Cloudy core with a fully symmetrical flex profile makes the SFB’s one of the lighter all-mountain skis on the market. Francis Bacons offer a playful ride in the soft stuff that allows you to ski switch, forwards, sideways or whatever way you want to get down the mountain. Being so light, however leaves something to be desired on the frontside for those who really like to lay down the hip and carve groomers.
