Full Description
A forgiving and manoeuvrable easy-to-turn ski for beginners of both sexes, the Pursuit 11 has a user-friendly construction to help you progress without pushing you beyond your comfort zone.
With a 12.4 metre sidecut radius for a 163 ski, this one is built to prefer medium turns – nothing too extreme either way and perfect for a beginner.
Power Turn Rocker makes the tip easy to turn and control and allows the tail to skid out easily for snowplough and stem turns.
Longitudinal flex is soft so the Pursuit 11 is nice and easy to bend to initiate the turn even at the slowest speeds, and torsion is soft too so the ski will let you away with mistakes and wobbles rather than reacting before you mean it to.
And an injected foam core with added fibreglass makes this a fun, playful ski for a beginner skier to enjoy the early steps with.

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?
