The Findr R3 86 is a mid-width ski built with a carbon fiber front ski touring and skiing in hard and mixed snow conditions with maximum edge control. FIND Dr has a traditional camber profile and an early rocker at the top to provide flotation in deep snow.The top layer of nylon is eextremely light with a certain texture that makes it durable & prevents snow and ice from sticking.
Manufactured using G3's new process, the skis are fully recyclable without compromising flex, weight or durability. In the proprietary recycling process R3 can all materials are reused in new manufacturing or recycled when the skis are worn out.

R3 Recycable Skis
With a new manufacturing process, the skis are fully recyclable without compromising on flex, weight or durability. G3's proprietary recycling process R3 does that all materials can be reused in new manufacturing or recycled when the skis are worn out. Send back the skis to G3 and their team separate each component in a environmentally friendly system. With the original materials remaining, they can be reused in production or recycled.

Premium Carbon Fiber Construction
The skis are constructed with carbon fiber laminate of the same quality as used in the aviation industry. Each layer of carbon fiber is carefully applied above and below the core to optimize flex, stiffness and power transfer specifically for each ski. G3 uses dry and flexible carbon fiber sheets with exactly the right amount of resin and carbon fiber for each ski size. The process minimizes unnecessary weight and optimizes the fiber's function.Polyurethane Sidewalls
Polyurethane (PU) is an elastomeric polymer material known for effective energy absorption, durability and elasticity. An inherent problem with ultralight carbon fiber skis is the chatter and jitteriness that comes from the light and stiff materials used. The ski's PU edges counteract this as they absorb the extra energy and dampen nervousness. The elasticity of PU increases durability by 30%, and improves protection from impacts on the edges compared to ABS. PU also bonds the edge permanently and completely seamlessly to the wood core.Magnetic Contact Points
The skis are magnetic at the contact points in the tip and rear end. They snap together when the skis are put together and facilitate all transport without the need for ski straps. The innovation is practical for all types of activity on the mountain.
