The Impulse Ti 98 features a moderate 98mm waist for all-mountain versatility.It’s equally adept at blowing through chop at high speed or confidently tackling steep, chalky, technical lines.

Austrian-made with pre-preg fiberglass and an engineered poplar core, we’ve boosted the performance of the new Impulse by adding a sheet of Titanal which improves edge-hold, dampness, and stability at high speeds.

Good solid dependable work ski

"Luv these. Responsive ski, holds good on hard snow and capable on deeper day's. Bases are bomber and absorb wax well. Top sheets are move durable than previous models I have a NTN set up and an Alpine. Everyday work ski holds up to the abuse. I will probably get another pair for the 26/27 season as a backup. 182 cm 18 M radius good for quick turns in tight spots."

Impulse Ti 98s

"Solid skis that perform across the mountain. Would have liked a wider ski for the backcountry, but these can keep up in powder to get the job done!"

Eric S. (5/5)

I didn’t think they could but they did!

"They made a great ski better. I started skiing black Fiamond skis with the Boundary Pro 107. Loved them, bought an impulse 98 loved those, 98 Impulse Ti? Even better, lighter (slightly), snappier and still damp and confidence inspiring."

Jason R. (5/5)

"Lightweight and sturdy! Mounted the Fritschi Tecton 13s and makes a great all-mountain ski!"

Great ski

"Best ski ever! Allrounder"

Rick (5/5)

Superlative ski for my desires

"Been using Impulse 98 for patrol chores going on couple years now and figured, I’ll just get another helping of those"

Dave B. (5/5)

Very Versatile

"I work in retail and have been using this ski for a month now and I am really satisfied with it, have it mounted with a Salomon S/Lab Shift 13 and it is as fun for Ski Touring as it is for Alpine Skiing. It is also very robust and playful."

Impulse Ti 98

"I haven't skied on these yet but I have last year's ski and I've been on it since November 8th,when we opened. Daily work ski. Unfortunately we're in the slippery tilted concrete stage of the man made season. Easy to flick these around, snappy and responsive, perfect for patrol work, for me they carve and hold and edge. I keep them tuned and waxed every week. The Ti 's will be mounted with 22 Designs Bandits driven by new Scarpa TX Pros. Currently I'm running Marker Griffins on last year's model. So one for Alpineone for Tele. Can't wait, there getting mounted now finally. Luv em!"

Scott L. (5/5)

Beautiful boards

"Everything BD claimed about these beauties is true. I can't wait to get out and see how they do going uphill and downhill this winter."

Katherine B. (5/5)

Solid crud carver

"These skis have really impressed me with their resistance to chatter. Solid carver that give control and confidence on the groomers and in the crud. I have not had opportunity yet to experience these skis in powder conditions. But I really did not buy them for that. I have some wider and lighter touring skis that are great in powder, but not so great in the conditions that the impulse excels in. . . I'm happy that I now have a quiver that covers the majority of conditions in the PNW."
