You can find some information on these if you Google the Storm website.

There is a review on tgr somewhere but the lack of reviews is quietly telling I think and the fact that they are in tksmack for 20% of their original price.As a cheap ski they are worth buying as a pair of rock skis.

Trust me anything that's readily available off Google I found already. I want to hear from someone who's actually used them...
I'm not convinced.....
cheers

Maybe nobody has used them have you thought about that!!!

Well I'm guessing that they didn't sell many skis as they seem to have gone out of business but don't forget the issue was that at rrp they were trying to compete with the big brands which they seemed to fail doing. Tkmaxx are selling them for £100... how bad can they be?

I must admit to being curious myself after handling a pair in a stock liquidators store room the other month they looked awful but I suppose you could get rid of the top sheet.

Im not sure of that either. I think they just shared moulds.... andy david the director wrote a whole spiel about it somewhere on snowheads

You know it makes sense.

Not skied on the Twisted but have skied on several from the storm range. Cyclones, Rages (my current do everything ski) and Crossfires (current fast piste skis) and have found them to be great. Sure they were made in the the Sporten factory but then so are a lot of brands, there aren't that many ski factories on the planet!

I particularly liked the Inferno Racecarver...very good frontside carving ski. |
I just bought a pair of those from TKMAXX! I demoed, liked but couldn't afford them a few years ago at Hemel.

Yup, would have snapped those up as well if I didn't have the crossfires!

How short do the rage's ski given they are twin tip?, thinking about a pair in 166 for junior.

I have a pair of the Twisted Sista. They're pretty much a powder only ski and handle really great in it. I've been skiing open powder and powder in trees in the Alps where I loved them with a friend on a pair of Hellbents and he wanted to try them but different boot sizes. When ending up on piste and hitting ice or hard moguls then life gets a little harder. They have alot of pop in too and have a lot of float and flex but are a little long for me I'd say but I am only 5'10-11..
