OUR BRAND
IN THE MOUNTAINS, DETAILS MATTER. At Liberty, our location in the heart of the Colorado Rockies informs everything we do. Our commitment to crafting great skis and doing business the right way means we sweat the little stuff. We test and refine our skis right in our backyard, dial in the construction, wrap them in beautiful graphics, and make sure they are available at the finest ski retailers, because all these things matter to us and are inspired by our surroundings. Mountains can be unforgiving places, but we make them our home because with the right focus, they are the most rewarding places. Every decision and detail is amplified in the high alpine environment, and we wouldn’t want it any other way. At Liberty, details matter.

OUR BRAND
BENDING THE RULES When the peaks of Colorado finally start turning from white to green, and the snowpack melts to feed the rivers, the staff at Liberty takes to the water. We are fortunate to live and work in the mountains where there is rarely a lack of outdoor activities, but fly fishing holds a special place in our history. When we first started building skis 15 years ago, the prevailing wisdom was that quality ski cores could only be made from old-growth hardwood. We knew that before the rise of fiberglass and then carbon fiber, most fly rods were made from segmented bamboo. Strong fish, such as salmon and even tarpon, had been landed on these bamboo rods and we knew they could make exceptional ski cores with the right species selection, handling, and treatment. We tested and refined our process, and have since become the leader in bamboo ski construction. We still use fiberglass and carbon fiber (like those fly rod builders), along with our signature bamboo laminate core construction to give every Liberty ski a unique feel on snow. At Liberty, we take the best attributes of natural and high tech materials and combine them in a way no other ski maker can. We don’t mind bending the rules to make exceptional skis. At Liberty, details matter.

Introducing the NEW V-Series, Liberty’s front-side carving collection, featuring VMT technology. Using vertical metal struts sandwiched between bamboo and poplar, the V-Series is able to maintain dampness and power without the weight of traditional horizontal metal. Designed for smooth turn initiation, the V-Series has a metal tip and tail protector for damage control and vibration reduction. With the addition of spring steel plates underfoot for resilient flex and steering accuracy, and full carbon from tip to tail for precise edge control, the V-series is built for demanding front-side skiers.
