Design details
Construction
Core which fuses Polyurethane (PU) Desolite providing lightness and a Power wood core for quick handling. Titanium reinforcement to stabilise skis when going down slopes at speed. Full-length ski edge for improved grip on hard snow.
Bindings
Atomic bindings, Mercury 11 model.
Durability
Shock resistant metal tip protector. Topsheet structurer for better durability.
Preparation
Waxed and sharpened skis, ready to use. Edge angle sharpened at 89°.
What is a camber?
When placing a ski on the ground, its points of contact are near the tip and tail, whereas the waist 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 the quicker the ski will respond. The lower the camber, the more forgiving the skill will be and the better its handling.
What is a rocker?
On a rocker ski, the tip – and the tail, sometimes – comes off the ground much sooner than with a cambered ski. This moves the points of contact towards the centre of the ski. The surface of the ski in contact with the snow is smaller: you will benefit from better handling and more buoyancy on soft snow. When leaning into turns, the edge length offers more grip on hard snow. The longer the rocker, the better the handling of your skis.
