FREERIDE SKI - ROOKIE 90 + BINDINGS - TYROLIA PR11 GW

What are ski sidecuts?

The sidecuts corresponds to the width of the nose (front of the ski), the waist (middle of the ski) and the heel (back of the ski).

The wider the tip, the easier the turn entry. The narrower the waist, the stronger the grip in hard snow.

What is a camber?

When placing a ski on the ground, its points of contact are found near the nose 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 a rocker?

On a "rocker" ski, the nose, and sometimes the tail, 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 shortened: they have 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 the ski.
