The Icon 102 is Extrem's new women’s specific freeride ski, replacing the legendary Mothertree 105 in the line-up. They took the DNA from one of their most iconic ski models of all time and tuned it further. The Icon 102 is easy to initiate the turn with and the tail releases when you want it to, while the fine-tuned rocker profile floats like a dream in powder, handles chopped-up snow like with ease and carves well on the groomers.
The foundation is a brand new shape and sidecut that relies on almost 30 years of experience building freeride ICON 102 skis. Underneath the hood, the Icon 102 has a brand new fiberglass construction alongside a snappy poplar wood core that blend light weight with power and dampening to create a smooth, responsive feeling.
So, how do you replace an iconic ski model? With an Icon, of course. The Icon 102 is a freeride ski that’s the ultimate choice for the freeride skier who wants a versatile friend to rule the most days of the winter with.

Ski Buyers Guide
Buying a pair of skis doesn't need to be a daunting experience. When buying a pair of skis, there are a few simple pieces of information that will help you to find your perfect match. With the introduction of carving skis and new technology, ski length is based more on the user’s weight than the tradition of using your height. Combine this with your ski level and your aspirations and this will help narrow your choice very quickly. Follow these simple steps:
STEP 1 - ABILITY
Firstly choose your current skiing level from the list below:
1 - Never skied before
2 - I can stop with a snowplough
3 - I am doing snowplough turns, and the odd blue run
4 - I am starting to parallel ski and onto blue runs
5 - I am venturing onto reds, and starting to make step turns
6 - I am getting confident on reds, and maybe doing the odd black
7 - I am comfortable skiing most black runs
8 - I am confortable on ice, and venturing off-piste
9 - I am skiing off-piste aggresively, and carving across all pistes
10 - I am a professional experienced ski instructor or racer

- NOVICE (Level 1 to 4)
- INTERMEDIATE (Level 4-6)
- ADVANCED (Level 6-8)
- EXPERT (Level 8-9)
- PROFESSIONAL (Level 10)
STEP 2 - TERRAINNow you know your skier level, you can decide where you will mainly be using your new skis:
- - Groomed Piste Runs

- - Off-piste skiing (powder)
- - Ski touring

STEP 3 - FINAL ADJUSTMENT FOR SKILL LEVELThe final calculation- For
NOVICE skiers, this is your recommended length. For
INTERMEDIATE and
