What LINE says about the Vision 104
“From the resort to far-out zones
The most versatile ski in the redesigned Vision Collection, the Vision 104 is just as at home conquering dawn patrol as it is catching the first chair. With a lightweight feel due to the new THC tech and a more durable construction thanks to its Thick Cut Sidewalls and Bio-Resin superpowers, the Vision 104 represents a freestyle, freeride ski that you can take from your favorite resort to far into the backcountry.
Designed to rip within the resort ropes and well beyond
Visions can change over time, whether about a brand's vision, or the skis we’re riding on, our vision changed the day we tested the new Optic Collection. From the 88 to the 114, the Optic Collection skied so well that we knew we had to revamp the Vision Collection to match. We took the shape of the Optic 96, 104, and 114, removed the metal, increased the rocker, added a brand-new THC layup and the new Vision Collection was reborn. These changes resulted in incredibly lightweight yet stable skis for the uphill, with the versatility and performance that the Optic footprint offers for the downhill.
Designed with our new Bio-Resin Tech and FSC Certified Wood Cores, the Vision Collection doesn't just feature improved skiing performance; it also features new environmentally friendly materials.”

Tips: 5-6
Shovels: 6.5-8
In Front of Toe Piece: 8.5-10
Underfoot: 10

This backcountry & resort ski is super soft only at the very ends, but the other sections are pretty stiff.

2021-2022 Line Vision 108
Line is calling their Vision 108 a “freeride” ski, but we’ve never been on a “freeride” ski quite like this. Check out our full review.
I am right in seeing a skin notch in the tails?! That would be a nice addition.
Correct.
