Full Description
Pretty much as versatile as mid fat skis get, the Reverse is smooth and strong, charges through crud, floats in powder and grips hard and is faster edge to edge than you’d imagine on groomed stuff – the 15 metre sidecut radius for the 176 length is pretty short for a ski of this type.
The 84 mil waist gives a nice wide platform underfoot for flotation in deeper conditions and stability on harder snow at high speeds.
Classic sandwich sidewall construction with titanal top and bottom sheets gives strong edge grip and a ski that is stable and reassuring at speed.
The traditional wood core is light and damp, coping easily with terrain variations and chopped up crud and the hollowed out Venturi Tip Rocker tip floats above soft snow, reduces vibrations and keeps weight down.

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?
