Women’s Downhill Skiing Skis - Black

Construction

Shellfiber Tec Sw: design with vertical edges providing strong grip on hard snow. The slight 3D in the ski provides good rigidity when twisting, allowing you to take bends smoothly (H-design).

Bindings

Tyrolia bindings, SLR 9, model, Full Diagonal triggering for safety, DIN 2.5 to 9.

Durability

Metal tip end to limit impact on tip . Structured topsheet for improved durability.

Preparation

Waxed and sharpened skis, ready to use. Edge angle sharpened at 89°.

What is an arch?

When placing a ski on the ground, its points of contact are found near the tip and heel, 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 traction and more responsive the ski. The lower the camber, the more tolerant and manageable the ski.

What is a rocker?

On a rocker ski, the tip, and sometimes the heel, 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: they are more manageable and buoyant on soft snow. When taking corners, the edge length offers more traction on hard snow. The longer the rocker, the easier that skis will be to handle.

Autoride rocker

Light rocker at the tip and heel, arch under the foot. This shape provides manoeuvrability and tolerance upon changing snow conditions. You benefit from the better manageability of a short ski when sliding and from the stability of a longer ski as soon as you use the edge.
