What Folsom says about the Rotor
“Powder meets power with the Rotor
- Intended for deep snow / cat and heli skiing access.
- Traditional sidecut 10mm wider than its little brother the Rapture
- Developed specifically to make your most expensive and important turns of the season the best experience possible.”
