Full Description
A pretty safe option for anyone in the intermediate bracket, the Pursuit 13 helps you progress, build confidence and develop from skid to carve.
Central Dualtec combines sandwich and cap construction. Sandwich construction in the centre of the ski for effective grip, cap construction at tip and tail for easier turn initiation.
Like all of the Pursuit range, “H Technology” splits the tip and tail of the 13 allowing them to move more freely and giving precise turn initiation. Turn initiation is also helped by the Power Turn Rocker construction in the tip only while the rest of the ski uses traditional camber for rebound and grip throughout the turn.
The tail is not rockered and is fairly square to encourage you to learn to carve right through to the end of the turn, though the slightly turned up shape does allow you to break into a skid when you need too.

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?
