Full Description
Relatively soft in flex and torsion, with a smooth camber and a medium overall profile, the Unique 4 is an ideal ski for an intermediate skier who enjoys the sensation of carving and wants to get it right, or for a more technically advanced lady who likes an easier ski.
The wide and flat tail encourages carving through the end, although the slightly turned up shape of the tail will allow a skid when you need it. The fairly wide tip also encourages the ski to carve when placed on the edge but the Power Turn Rocker construction makes the front end of the ski less chattery and easier to control.
Central Dualtec combines sandwich construction in the centre of the ski and cap construction at the tip and tail. This gives plenty of grip and fast information transfer underfoot, where it’s needed, while keeping the extremities light for easier turn initiation and balance. Power Turn Rocker also helps with turn initiation, control and manoeuvrability.

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?
