The Kaizen 105 is a confidence-inspiring, all-mountain ski that promotes powerful skiing in any terrain. We don’t believe in the idea of a true one-ski quiver, but this one comes close. 

The Kaizen 105 is a hard-charging ski that adapts well to any terrain. It favors a more aggressive skiing style, and provides serious stability to power through it all.

Whether you’re laying down big, arcing turns on fresh groomers, or slaying powder or sunbaked crud, this ski thrives when you’re charging. The Kaizen 105 is designed for skiers who seek high-performance in both perfect and less than perfect snow conditions.

Engineered for all-mountain mastery. With longer turn radius and less rocker than the other skis in the Kaizen line, the Kaizen 105 provides better stability and edge hold at speed. Reduced rocker and minimal tip taper keep the ski engaged with the snow for a connected, planted feel. Paired with DPS's full carbon construction, the split wood core contributes to stability and dampness, resulting in a ski that is powerful and ready to battle any terrain you throw at it. 

Technology & Construction

• Full Carbon Construction — DPS's highest-performance build uses two full-length carbon fiber sheets, for an energetic feel only premium carbon can deliver.
• Proprietary Wood Cores — Uniquely engineered cores dampen vibrations, but don't act as the main energy source in the ski.
• Split Core Technology — Uses horizontal lamination to combine the dampening properties of two different hard woods.
• 138mm Waist Width — Maximum underfoot width for a whole new powder skiing experience.
• Directional Shape — Perfect for fast, fall-line turns.
• Phantom Glide Treatment — Factory-applied Phantom Glide, DPS's long-lasting and eco-friendly base treatment for fast, low-maintenance glide on snow.
• Tougher Topsheets — Rugged, textured topsheet material holds up to heavy use and resists cosmetic damage.
• A Better Base — 4000-series World Cup base material delivers superior durability, paired with a precision tune and structure tailored to each ski.
• Rockwell 48 Steel Edges — Rockwell 48 is the optimized edge hardness level for lasting sharpness, durability, and reliable grip in all conditions.
• Aluminum Tailbar — The aluminum tailbar at the bottom of the ski helps resist dings and delamination from daily knocks and tail smacks.
