Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

The Ripstick 96 is so capable anywhere on the mountain, it doesn?t matter what the terrain or conditions are. The unique Amphibio design uses tip rocker on outside edges for smooth turning and camber on inside edges for grip and precision. On groomers it rips turns like a piste ski, in powder it?s effortless, and in tricky conditions it?s perfectly balanced. TNT Technology has thin tubes of carbon and light tip and tail inserts integrated into the wood core. This keeps weight down and boosts handling and energy.

One word - easy. Once you've worked out which ski goes on which boot, the rest is remarkably comfortable. Maybe too comfortable and slightly lacking in entertainment factor but that's being picky.

The Wingman 78 C is one of the easiest to use and most forgiving skis on the rack. Amphibio Technology blends inside edge camber with outside edge rocker to make turning hassle-free even when the conditions are tricky. Amphibio Truline Technology uses asymmetric design to place structural materials over the inside edges of the skis to help create cleaner turns. A Power Woodcore with carbon gives the perfect amount of rebound and grip for the intermediate skier looking to hone piste skills.

The most "different" skis of the bunch I tested on the day - but in a good way. Very light weight so took some getting used to. Once done that it was really easy and fun. Good edge grip and versatile, The asymmetric left/right skis seemed to work too!

Great ski, easy to manoeuvre and fun in the bumps. The Kastle FX95 HP and the DPS Wailer Alchemist 99 were just slightly better.
