Van Deer H-Power 78 15795603

The Van Deer H-Power 78 is an all-mountain frontside ski designed for those who spend most of their time on groomed trails but still want the flexibility to explore varied terrain. With a waist width of 78 mm, it strikes a balance between nimble edge-to-edge performance on hard snow and enough support for occasional softer patches.

Featuring a 122/78/107 mm sidecut, the H-Power 78 offers a blend of quick turn initiation and solid stability. This shape helps you carve smoothly on firmer slopes while keeping the ski responsive when you lean into the rail. Paired with the Look SPX 15 Rockerace bindings, you get consistent power transfer and reliable hold through every turn.

The ski’s 18.5 m radius at 183 cm length defines the natural arc of your turns: a slightly longer radius delivers more stability at speed and a forgiving feel when you take bigger, sweeping lines. The sidecut dimensions—tip, waist, and tail widths—work together to control how sharply the ski pivots, making it easier to link turns without having to over-edge.

Van Deer says about theH-Power 78

There’s a lot of talk about that one-ski-quiver and here we are: The H-POWER 78 is made to rip on all parts of the mountain – on and off-piste – it’s a no brainer almost any day of the season. With Marcel’s signature on it, it comes as no surprise that this ski offers more hardpack performance than pretty much any other model in its class, crushing the groomers like a race ski, even in extremely firm and icy conditions. At the same time, it’s plenty but not too light, very nimble and extremely versatile so that you won’t have to think twice about heading sidecountry when those freshies are calling. Providing rock-solid stability and edge hold through every turn, the H-POWER 78 is powered by a poplar wood-core with two Titanal layers, full ABS sidewalls, race edges, a P-Tex race base, and a genuine Race Room finish. 100% Marcel-approved.
