Pros
- All mountain capable
- Decently wide
- Reasonably stiff
Cons
- Heavy

Best Uses
- Heavier folk

I demoed this recently in Salt Lake City, Utah. We had a couple of inches of fresh, and the ski was fairly competent all over the mountain. However, it's on the heavier side which didn't suit me so much (165 lbs, 6'1"). Probably best for people who beat up on their skis rather than those who want something a bit more nimble.

Finally got to try my new Line Influence 105s....mmnnnnnn... Awsome! Skied Whistler a few days ago after 2 days of being closed the Peak chair had 60cm freshies! These skis rock in powder and crud! And, skied the hardpack, which lead to ice and then soft spring at the end and they gripped wickedly in all conditions. Wow... in a 105 - Who would think? This is indeed the one skier quiver. Well done.

I will buy my pair this month.

INFLUENCE 105 TECHNOLOGY
CAPWALL™
Cap on the top for light & responsive performance, combined with sidewall over the edges for a smooth solid feel.
MACROBLOCK™ CORE
This 100% tip to tail wood core is made from the widest and highest quality Maple and/or Aspen laminates for long lasting camber and energy and the lightest, most durable wood core in the Universe.
FIVECUT™
5 different sizes of sidecut radius shapes are blended into one, for intuitive control & unlimited turn shapes.
DIRECTIONAL FLEX
The softer tip floats & initiates turns easily while the stiffer tail provides reliable powerful turn exits, & stability.
METAL MATRIX™
Die cut titanal, or composite laminate provides more power & grip where you need it under foot & at the tips, while reducing weight where you don’t.
EARLY RISE™
Tip rise starts earlier in the ski so the tips effortlessly rise out of powder & stay on top without needing to sit back.
TIGERSNAKE
Used on the best skis in the world! An electrical conduit is woven into the core with control knobs on top, so the ski can become aggressive like a tiger, while maintaining natural flex . . . like a snake!
ACTIVE EDGE
20% longer sidecut edge length in contact with the snow than other skis in it's class for more grip & less slip!
