Lacroix Carbon 125cm Longboard Skiboards

February 26, 2008

Lacroix is famous for using exotic materials in their skis and now they have brought a bit of the luxury to their skiboard line with full carbon fiber top sheets. Lacroix’s 125cm Longboard skiboards are the longest in their line up and are designed for the skiboarder looking for maximum stability and float but with a small turn radius never letting you forget you’re still on a pair of skiboards. Lacroix has been making skis since 1966 so you know these babies are high quality.

Materials used are carbon fiber, translucid ptex 2000 base-laminated and horizontal
woodcore-carbon-vibrachoc on tip and tail-PNS rubber-fiberglass with
different angles and weight.

These use the 4×10 binding insert pattern to be mounted with Spruce Riser Bindings.

They are 14.8 cm wide at the tips, and 11.8 cm wide at the waist and have a running length of 100 cm.

You can buy these at SBOL

It seems LaCroix, maker of the Summit skiboards for the past two years are stepping up to make their own line up of skiboards, after the deal with Summit went sour. As mentioned in an earlier post, SBOL has a pair for sale, but LaCroix will also release a 98 cm a 108 cm and a 124 cm. The Phiokka logo is also on their website, which probably means LaCroix is planning to re-release them for the skiboard market, as well as the Salomon logo, and Salomon release and non-releasable bindings are shown on the website.
