Full Description
A firm favourite with our test team, the Buzz is a great ski for its natural environment - softer conditions and variable terrain in the bakcountry - but like many Movements it also performs impressively well out of its comfort zone, on harder conditions or even for a bit of piste use.
With a pretty straight 131/99/119 sidecut profile, the Buzz is never going to be the shortest turning ski in the rack but the soft tip means you can bend it into a tighter turn than you'd expect with a bit of skill and speed.
The tail is stiff, allowing for powerful turns with plenty of control at high speeds and kicking you out of one turn and into the next.
Relatively lightweight - thanks in part to the poplar wood core - the Buzz is manoeverable, buoyant and dynamic.

TOP TIP
Ski Servicing
Watch out for shops that cut corners – and costs – by hardly ever servicing their skis, or just giving them a quick wax. Unserviced or badly serviced skis can ruin your whole week. Why pay for substandard kit?
