Full Description
The replacement for the very popular Source, the Chill Out promises to be even more of a great all-rounder than its predecessor – much more so than you would expect from a ski that’s 9 and a half centimetres underfoot.
The tip only rocker is one of the main reasons why the Chill Out’s such a versatile ski. Obviously the wide rockered tip float really well in soft and deep snow while for piste performance the rocker makes the wide tip less grabby, but there’s plenty of effective edge, the camber gives masses of rebound and the tail holds on to the turn to the end then kick into the next one.
Like all Movements, the Chill Out’s very light and nimble so it’s fast edge to edge despite its wide waist making it a fun ski in all conditions, stable at speeds and ready for pretty much everything the
