With 24 Hours of Sunlight coming up, we have three pairs of Trab skis loaned out among our team. The flagship Trab for that sort of thing is perhaps the Sint Aero (pictured above), as it combines light weight and a narrow dimension for quick uphill, along with decent hardpack downhill performance. We’ve also got a pair of this season’s Trab Duo Freerando Piuma set up for the race, which are super light as well. Third pair is last year’s version of the Piuma, they’re good boards as well.
