Fun Carver 88
Fun Carver 88 Details
WHAT IS THIS SKI????
A huge powder-inspired 152 mm rockered tip, an 88 mm frontside friendly waist - and a race inspired stiff flat tail…
Until we name it, we’re calling it the Fun Carver 88. It’s the only name that does it justice. Or maybe we should just call it the reverse mullet - party in the front, business in the back.
This ski will make you a better skier and people on the chairlift will turn their heads in awe as you rip immaculate slalom turns on a ski with a 150 mm + tip!
If you want to make every vertical foot count with tight turns, then hop off the trail in fresh pow - there’s only one ski you want - and it’s this one! It’s weird, funky, and kind of confusing to look at - but the sh!% eating grin on your face after your first run will tell the whole story.
This isn’t a one ski quiver - it’s different. It’s the ski that compliments your true All Mountain skis, (like the Ahmeek 105s you probably already have).
This is the Fun Carver, it’s extremely easy to initiate those high-G tight slalom inspired turns with the energy and pop of a one year old Siberian Husky. With a moderate flexing tip and rock solid tail, this ski is the whole package, even when you want to let it run medium-to-large radius turns.
And now on to the technical jargon...
- Full ash hardwood core - for maximum snap and pop
- Full width biaxial carbon fiber for increased torsional stiffness = more grip
- nanoMAG Damping System to reduce chatter and vibration on hardpack snow
- Rockered tip for easy turn initiation and the blast through powder/crud/variable snow
- Traditional camber underfoot for immediate edge grip
- Stiff flat tail for rocket-like energy coming out of a turn - but it’s still easy enough to break out of a turn

Customer Reviews
The shape pulled me in. I pondered it for a year and pulled the trigger last fall. These guys rip! They are a hoot on groomers. Confident on ice, rail the end of day crud with ease. I would mount back as recomended. Went with 169 and was worried they'd be too short but they are fine. Definitley not the fastest skis in my quiver but they are exactly what they say they are.
Absolutely and completely impressed. This ski has zero learning curve. The second you put it on edge, it does exactly what you hope it would. Click in and start ripping turns. I ski in upstate NY...translation- ice. These skis are the answer. Sean (from Shaggy's) and I designed my top sheet graphic . I explained what I wanted and he made it come to life. I would recommend this company to anyone who is interested in a ski and especially if you seek something custom.
“Fun Carver” describes this ski perfectly. Just had my first day ripping them at my local ski bump in MN! And I couldn’t help but go faster and faster through the turns on these awesome skis! I can’t wait to get them on a larger hill and really letting them rip! Great job Shaggys!
Next generation all mountain skis. You will be a better skier with Shaggy’s Fun Carver 88. Ski the East!
Now you know.
I had a chance to demo these this spring. WHAT A BLAST! The big shovel on the front gives just the right float for all conditions - pow, crud, corn, mashed taters. The tail is the after burner. Get these babys on the groomed, and they carve like nothing I’ve been on. Already got a pair on order!
