Sidecuts
125/72/109 in 170 cm The sidecut corresponds to the mm width of the tip, waist and tail. The wider the tip, the easier the turn entry. The narrower the waist ,the quicker the edge switching. The wider the waist, the more comfortable and stable the ski in changing snow conditions. Radius = 12.9 m As for the curve radius, the smaller it is, the shorter the ski will turn (small turns) The larger the curve radius, the wider the ski will turn
What is a camber?
When placing a ski on the ground, its points of contact are found near the tip and tail, whereas the middle of the ski (under the bindings) is slightly raised. This is the camber. The longer and higher the camber, the greater the edge grip and more responsive the ski. The lower the camber, the more forgiving the ski and the better the handling.
What is the rocker?
On a "rocker" ski, the tip, and sometimes the tail, comes off the ground sooner than with a cambered ski: this has the effect of moving the contact points toward the centre of the ski. The surface of the ski in contact with the snow is shortened and offers manoeuvrability and floatability in soft snow. When leaning into turns, the edge length offers more edge grip on hard snow. The longer the rocker, the better the handling of the ski.
OUR AFTER-SKI ADVICE
After a long day skiing, this is what you need to do to guarantee your ski's long life: - Wipe your edges with a cloth at the end of the day to prevent rusting. - Use ski ties to prevent the soles from rubbing against each other. - Store your skis in a dry place and away from sunlight.
