The newest member of the Scott family, the Scott Punisher 105 will take you on a ride you are sure to enjoy anywhere on the mountain this winter.

One of our favourites from this year’s testing, the Scott Punisher 105 will surprise you with just how versatile it really is. At 105mm under foot and with a wide tip you may think this ski would feel a bit on the bigger side on piste. However, in reality it’s easy turning and impressively grippy under foot. For those who love to charge down the pistes with confidence in their turns, even at speed, the edge grip on this ski will be a definite hit.

The Scott Punisher 105 remains very stable at speed, perhaps a result of its full-length Elliptic wood core, reinforced with unidirectional and triaxial carbon stringers. This keeps you feeling solid and powerful, without feeling weighed down, wherever you go.

Also worth a mention is its very impressive, lively versatility in off piste and bumpy terrain. You can have a lot of fun across terrains with the Punisher 105. While the waist is a brilliant size to float across powder and really push yourself off piste, it’s width does not feel like clumsy across bumps or through trees.

It is very playful even in the toughest conditions, which keeps you having a lot of fun across the mountain. Combining this playfulness, stability and responsiveness with its twin tip shape, the Punisher 105 is also set to be a hit for those who want to swap the powder for the park every now and then.
