2023 Peak 98 Skis with Marker Griffon 13 ID Bindings
The Peak 98 by Bode with Marker Griffon 13 ID Bindings is an all-mountain weapon that hits the mark for versatility, stability, and high-speed confidence. Sitting in that ideal ~100 mm sweet spot, the 98 offers a commanding ride across firm groomers, chopped-up snow, and soft stashes, all without feeling sluggish or overly demanding. Whether you're threading bumps or opening it up in wide terrain, this ski delivers a smooth, composed ride every time. We paired the ski with the Marker Griffon 13 ID because of the Griffon’s precision and reliability for all mountain and freeride skiers. With a robust construction and all the best tech, the Griffon 13 is a popular high-performance binding choice for wider-bodied skis for good reason.
Why we like it:
It blends a lively personality with serious composure, finding that rare middle ground between playful maneuverability and powerful edge grip.
Who it's for:
Built for advanced directional skiers who want one ski that does everything well, especially those who value a precise ride with just enough agility for tight terrain.
Highlights:
The Peak 98 is built around a Paulownia and Ash wood core that offers a lively and energetic feel, reinforced by two sheets of Titanal for confidence-inspiring stability. Peak’s KeyHole Technology, a targeted cutout in the upper metal layer, makes for quicker edge initiation and improved adaptability through the turn. Full sidewalls boost edge hold on firm snow and give the ski a crisp, responsive feel underfoot. As we’ve come to expect from Marker, there’s no shortage of tech packed into the Griffon 13 binding. Marker’s Triple Pivot Elite Toe and Inter-pivot 3 Freeride Heel systems work in tandem to provide improved edge grip and control, as well as helping to mitigate vibrations for a smooth ride. A cleverly placed anti-ice rail sits on top of the toepiece and can be used to scrape off those pesky clumps of snow and ice that accumulate on the sole of your boot. With Multinorm (MN) boot compatibility, the Griffon 13 is a versatile and reliable choice for a huge range of skiers and applications.
Things to consider:
The Peak 98 isn’t a laid-back cruiser; its stout build and metal construction require solid technique. Intermediates may find it more demanding in tight or technical terrain.
Fit & sizing considerations:
These run true to length. Stick with your standard all-mountain size unless you’re looking for quicker pivoting in tight spots.
