A DIFFERENT KIND OF SKI BRAND
A few years ago, skis began feeling boring, stagnant, and unexciting. A world filled with Honda Accords. Heritage Lab is here to resist that. We make performance skis with personality and performance that you cannot find anywhere else, and we deliver it with the best service and experience on the planet.
Heritage Lab is singularly focused on helping you get onto the perfect ski. That permeates everything. Here, you can speak directly to the owner/designer and always get a straight answer about the right ski or mounting point. We stand behind every ski to a degree far beyond any other ski retailer.
Every Heritage Lab ski is built with proven shapes and geometries that offer large sweet spots, dialed rocker profiles that add performance across a variety of snow-surfaces, and feature best-in-industry construction to deliver an elite skiing experience. Our collection uniquely balances ultra smooth ride with a lively and responsive feel that is remarkably fun on-snow and stands out in a crowd.
To pull all of this off as a predominately one-man band in an economically viable manner, our ski collection is almost exclusively offered on a preorder basis. Please reach out any time. I am here to help you get on your dream setup.

THE HL SKI COLLECTION
MODERN FREERIDE SKIS
Like to ski fast and slash drifty turns? These ultra smooth and responsive skis are just the ticket. They bring effortless drifts, tons of surf in untracked snow, and precise performance as the snow gets tracked or hard. They tackle all that your mountain has to offer.
The Modern Freeride Ski Collection features skis that are more heavily rocked, and have more progressive mount points between -4.5cm and -8cm from the center and waist widths from 100mm to 122mm.
If you are new to the HL ski line, the R110 is a great entry point.
DIRECTIONAL ALL MTN SKIS
Created to offer traditional GS edge geometry, in more modern shapes, that thrive equally well on and off piste, this collection is for skiers who live their life in the passing lane.
Derived from the most unflappable charger skis ever made, but updated to enhance versatility, they are impossibly smooth, flawlessly stable, and impeccably responsive.
The Directional All Mountain skis feature larger turn radii and have longer effective edge lengths than the Modern Freeride Ski Collection. Their natural mount points are between -9.5cm and -12cm from the center and have waist widths ranging from 85mm to 113mm.
If that sounds compelling, start with the RC95 model and explore the range from there.
CARBON BC COLLECTION
There is nothing like skiing untracked snow - and nothing makes it better than quickly and efficiently accessing it with premium carbon built skis featuring progressive shapes and dialed rocker profiles.
The BC skis collection are all built with a world-beating carbon build that is both competitively light and noticeably damp. Their shapes primarily draw from the Modern Freeride skis and feature rocker profiles optimized for pinnacle performance in wild backcountry snow. Waist widths range from 132mm to 90mm.
The most versatile BC shape is the AM100, so we recommend exploring the range from there.
HB MODEL QUICK-REFERENCE
FR - Full-height Reverse - soft-snow specialists that turn the mountain into a skatepark. Exceptional in "hot pow" and featured in our "Powder Lab" collection of skis.
R - Reverse - intended as reverse camber daily drivers, they add neutral edge engagement and increase fore-aft support on firmer snow vs the FR. The R110 is listed with the Progressive Freeride skis.
AM - All Mountain - a lightly cambered profile that is more inspired on edge and better at "slicing through" cut-up / variable snow than the surfier reverse camber skis. These are the cornerstone skis of the Progressive Freeride colleciton.
RC - Resort Chargers - directional skis with race-derived geometry and stout "comp" flex that need speed to come alive. They define the Directional Thoroughbreds.
FL - Fall Line - skis that want to carver down the mountain, not accross it. These are special skis produced in very small batches on limited basis.
