Full Description
A great option for developing intermediates, the X-Kart Sport will encourage you in short turns but at the same time is plenty forgiving enough for the inevitable mistakes at this stage.
Monocoque construction makes the ski light at the tip and tail, so easy to maneuver, while transferring pressure very effectively to the edge for maximum control and edge grip.
The composite core is light, quick reacting and full of energy.
Carve rocker construction means the wide tip engages quickly in the turn without becoming grabby or chattering when skied flat.
A single layer of titanium reinforcement give enough torsional stability for good edge grip and control throughout the turn while still allowing the ski to collapse slightly to forgive mistakes and wobbles.

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?
