Line Skis Sir Francis Bacon Skis 2023
By now, this ski needs no introduction. The Line Skis Sir Francis Bacon Skis have inspired generations of fun-loving all-mountain freestyle skis, and generations of fun-loving all-mountain skiers. They feature a silky smooth flex pattern that's just stiff enough to hold up to explosive resort skiing and just soft enough to absolutely butter the popcorn out of. They have convex tips and tails that beg to be smeared around, and a spring-loaded core that turns every roller into a trampoline waiting to happen. This is the ski that Line made their name on, and it continues to be one of the most fun all-mountain rides in the business.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Early Rise™ – Tip and tail lift away from the snow to bring the contact points closer to the center of the ski. This increases a ski's lift in deep snow and allows it to engage more quickly on hardpack.
Rocker Profile – 6mm Tip / 4mm Camber / 6mm Tail
Flex
Symmetric Flex™ – The same flex pattern in front and behind your boot conforms to terrain equally riding forward & backward.
Sidecut
5-Cut™ – Five different radiuses are blended into the ski's sidecut. The result? A wide variety of turn shapes and an intuitive feel.
Shape
3D Convex Technology™ – Convex contouring across the tip and tail of the ski loosed the ski feel by increasing displacement - and creating a tip and tail more inclined to plane - for an added dimension of turn shape.
Core
Partly Cloudy™ – A blend of lightweight Paulownia and Maple creating the best strength to weight ratio of Line's offerings.
Sidewalls
Sidewall Construction – Ultra-high density Polyethylene vertical walls over the edges to absorb vibrations and provide powerful energy transmission.
Base
Fatty Base | Sintered 1.7mm – High density sintered bases reduce friction against the snow allowing for more speed and better durability.
Edges
Fatty Edge | 2.5mm x 2.2mm – 30% thicker edge dramatically increases durability and tuning life of these skis.
Additional Features
Stance Back from Center – 20 mm
Binding Compatibility
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

Terrain
All-Mountain All-mountain skis are designed to handle anything you throw at them including powder, ice, groomers, steeps, heavy snow, and everything in between, but they aren’t necessarily a master of any one terrain. If you’re only going to own one ski to do it all, this is what you want. All-mountain skis generally have what we call mid-fat waists that range from 80-110 mm.

Intermediate-Advanced

Ability Level
Intermediate-Advanced Whether you’re a progressing intermediate exploring new runs and terrain, or an accomplished rider seeking new thrills, the majority of skiers and snowboarders fall into this level. Intermediate to advanced skis and snowboards may be somewhat wider or stiffer than beginner-intermediate skis and snowboards, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Intermediate to advanced boots and bindings range from softer flexing freestyle options to stiffer choices built for stability at speed.

Rocker Type:
Rocker/Camber/Rocker
More
Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber/Rocker Rocker/Camber/Rocker skis have the playfulness and float of a rockered ski as well as the added edge hold of a cambered ski. The contact points on skis with this profile are closer towards the middle of the ski than a fully cambered ski, but still not underfoot. The cambered midsection provides a longer effective edge on hardpack, increasing edge hold and stability, while the rockered tip and tail provide floatation in deeper snow and allow the ski to initiate and release from turns easier.

Turning Radius:

Turning Radius
Short < 16 m radius is best for carving.

Tail Type:
Full Twin Tip
More
Tail Type
Full Twin Tip Desinged to allow you to ski backwards, full twin tips are found primarily on park & pipe skis and freestyle powder skis. More and more, we are seeing twin tips on all-mountain skis of all abilities, as it makes it a little easier to get around, and for the most part does not inhibit forward skiing.

Salomon Warden MNC 13 Ski Bindings
A clamp is a clamp is a clamp, right? Not so fast. Some are easier to get back on in 2 feet of blower pow. Some work with all boot sole types, including touring soles. And some offer downright bulletproof reliability year in and year out. The Salomon Warden MNC 13 Ski Bindings check all three boxes, and then some, and have become a huge favorite among riders who move between boots depending on the day. Manual toe height adjustment lets you dial in the precise height necessary for your boot, from ISO 9523 Touring to ISO 5355 Alpine and Gripwalk boot soles. When versatility and reliability are top of your list, there's no better choice than the Warden 13 MNC.

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.
