Sjezdové lyže Van Deer Freeride 98 - 2024/25

The FREERIDE 98 is an all-terrain freeride ski that has got range. Ready to take you from corduroy to deep in the backcountry, this is one of Marcel Hirscher’s favorite picks. At 98 mm underfoot it’s sized for maximum versatility, with an impressive yet playful performance in a variety of conditions: floaty in powder, grippy on hardpacked snow, very maneuverable in the trees, and stable at speeds. Featuring a good amount of tip & tail rocker for that surfy feel on storm days, the construction of the FREERIDE 98 includes a poplar wood core, double Titanal and Carbon laminates, full ABS sidewalls, race edges, and a P-Tex race base. Add to that Marcel’s high-end Race Room finish and some other magic touches he won’t talk about and this is your ski for inbounds hike-to terrain as well as deeper days out-of-bounds.

About Van Deer brand

WELCOME TO A NEW ERA OF SKIING

Inspired by Marcel Hirscher, our founder and the man behind the brand, we like to do things differently at VAN DEER-Red Bull Sports. We believe in the power of ‘new’. In a new no-compromise approach to skiing and ski equipment. In a new generation of skiers. And in breaking new ground in the ski (racing) world. With pooled knowledge, a shared sporting vision and full of passion, we build world-class skis for the winners of tomorrow. And for anyone who believes that good is not good enough.

THE PHILOSOPHY BEHIND VAN DEER-Red Bull Sports

In our world all skiers are equal. We want everyone to have access to the world’s best ski equipment, regardless of age, experience, and what kind of skiers they are: powder junkies, ski tourers, racers – you’re all at home at VAN DEER-Red Bull Sports.

Whether you’re a youngster going into your first FIS race or an established podium racer in the World Cup – your race skis are identically constructed; and they are made from the exact same high-end materials.

In everything we do we are ready to go the extra mile: We choose small, individual series rather than large-scale production. We prefer top-quality raw materials over less expensive imported components.

OUR WAY

Our skis are developed, built, tested, and tuned with the same know-how, meticulousness and obsessive drive for perfection that helped Marcel Hirscher become who he is today: the greatest alpine skier of our time.

“WHEN PERFECTION BECOMES OBSESSION MAGICAL THINGS ARISE”

Marcel Hirscher’s story is one-of a-kind. Competing at the highest level for 15 years, he profoundly changed the world of ski racing by setting new standards with his exceptional talent, technical skills, race intelligence, training methods, and physical fitness. What really set him apart from everybody else, though, was his professional, no-compromise approach to his equipment. Marcel’s obsession for tinkering and fiddling with things and his perfectionism often drove people mad. But his ability to translate his intuition and extraordinary feeling for both snow and gear into innovation have made him one of the most successful alpine skiers of all time. The fact that Marcel has achieved everything there is to achieve in alpine skiing is also a result of his long-standing partnership with Red Bull. And so it comes as no surprise that this collaboration has created a common vision. Being an innovative ski manufacturer, VAN DEER-Red Bull Sports is ushering in a new era to take skiing to the next level – with pooled knowledge, an uncompromising winning spirit and drive for perfection. Not just on the racecourse, but also in Marcel’s new favorite playgrounds: backcountry and big mountain.
