DPS Cassiar 80 / Cassiar 80SL (2013)
Tester's Review
A relentless carver, the Cassiar is loaded with springy power and hungry to arc up the pistes. Testers called it "darty," "spunky," and "race-bred without a spandex look." Its proprietary carbon construction a DPS hallmark is remarkably light and sturdy. Testers felt it deflected a bit in crunchy, crusty conditions due to its lightness. But on groomers, it tracked precisely with a snappy, playful, and laserlike intent.
PRICE (MSRP): $1249.00
