Sidecut

126/74/111 in 170 cm (67”)The sidecut corresponds to the width in mm of the nose, 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 ski in changing snow conditions Radius =14 m (46’) As for the curve radius, the smaller it is, the shorter the ski turn (small turn) The larger the turn radius, the longer the ski turn.

Preparation

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

What is the rocker?

When placed on the ground, the ski’s points of contact are near the tip and tail, while the waist (under the bindings) is slightly raised. This is the camber. The longer and higher the camber, the greater the edge grip, and the 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 tip and sometimes the heel come off the ground sooner than with a cambered ski: this moves the contact points toward the centre of the ski. The ski has less contact with the snow, offering added manoeuvrability and lift in soft snow. When leaning into turns, the edge length offers more grip on hard snow. The longer the rocker, the better the ski handles.

After-ski advice

After a long day of skiing, this is what you should do to prolong your ski’s life: * Wipe your edges with a cloth to prevent rusting. * Use ski ties to prevent the bases from rubbing against each other. * Store your skis in a dry place, away from sunlight.

SKI CENDRILLON

J'ai acheté ces skis pensant être le prince des pistes, mais au bout d'une semaine, c'est plutôt le carrosse de Cendrillon qui est devenu citrouille ! Le vernis se raye aussi vite que la magie s'en va à minuit. On se croirait sur des skis de dix ans, alors qu'ils ont à peine u

ne semaine. Si vous cherchez des skis qui vieillissent plus vite que vous, ces skis sont faits pour vous !"

un plaisir de skier avec le seul bémol c'est le " vernis" qui s abime vite au dessus avec les traces de ski. Même en étant soigneux .

Skieur d'un niveau intermédiaire, j'avais besoin de skis maniables avec une bonne accroche, des skis sécurisants qui ne partent pas dans tous les sens. J'ai retrouvé cela dans ces skis, avec un très bon rapport qualité/prix. juste parfait pour mon niveau et ma pratique (2 sema

ines par an).

Très satisfait de mon achat. A noter que je l'ai acheté à Grenoble où - par rapport à mon magasin habituel du sud de la France- la spécialisation "ski" semble plus marquée: les rayons étaient plus remplis et les conseils à l'avenant.
