This 3rd generation Freeride, the Freeride Fusion, allows for smooth carving and unrestricted creativity in chop. HO Sports infused properties from high performance crossover skis into the best-selling Freeride ski program. Ski behind virtually any watercraft with ease while ripping off fluid turns big or small. The wide platform makes it super stable and easy to progress on without sacrificing those smooth as butter edge to edge transitions. HO Sports included the new Asher Balance fin and Switchblade Fin System. Shaped by top pro Will Asher, the Balance Fin features a reduced fin length for quick turn rotation combined with a new distribution of surface area for great cross course direction. The Switchblade system takes the guesswork out of fin settings, no calipers needed! Just swap in a new blade shape and you're ready to experience new performance characteristics from your ski. The new settings are built into the blade. HO Sports done the work for you.
Women's specific flex 30% softer flex to maximize feel for more finesse skiers. Spoon tip provides more buoyant, easy planning surface. Hybrid edge design clean edge technology tail for efficiency and traditional beveled forebody for stability. Clean edge technology reduces drag 50% by allowing water to release cleanly off the bottom of the ski. This differs from conventional edges where water wraps around the bevel, up the sidewall and releases off the upper edge creating suction. The clean edge bevel-less tail produces more acceleration with less skier input. In addition, HO Sports enhanced stability by maintaining more bevel between the rear foot and fin. The result is a fast moving highly efficient ski with the handling required for tight line turns. Clean edge technology is bevel-less and the sidewalls are rotated inward like wakeboard edge, causing water to release cleanly off the ski's bottom surface. This results in a 50% less drag than conventional skis. This low drag back half of the ski means more lift, easier get-ups, less spray & less effort!
The traditional beveled edge in the Freerides front half allows water to wrap around the bottom of the ski and up the sidewall where it finally releases off the ski's top edge. This rounded edge rides deeper in the water for the stability skiers need. HO Sports Freeride is available in multiple lengths depending on the rider's weight range. The 63" (160cm) is designed for skiers weighing up to 110 lbs. (50 kg), the 65" (165cm) is designed for skiers weighing from 110 lbs. to 150 lbs. (50 kg to 68 kg), and the 67" (170.2cm) is designed for skiers weighing over 150 lbs. (68 kg). Ski is designed for recommended tow speeds from 24 mph to 28 mph (38.6 kph to 45 kph).

Dual lace zones with a low drag bungee upper and static lace in the lower lace zone that locks down the skier's foot for precision control.
