 Poster: A snowHead
|
|
No longer owning my own skis I've pre-booked a pair in Courchevel. These are Rossignol Bandit 78 BMP TPI. Are these any good? Primarily required for fast cruising on-piste with some short ventures off.

Cymru am Byth, Fine as long as it isn't rock hard on piste.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Spyderman, Oh bollox, I hate skiis that don't like ice. On the other hand I'm off to Courchevel in two weeks time, and with current snow conditions and at least one dump (end of this week) forecast before then shouldn't be too icy.

Cymru am Byth, I think you'll be fine. Piste preparation in Courchevel is probably the best in the world.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Spyderman, Cheers. Having been brought up on Kastle super G and Atomic arc skiis no modern ski holds any fear for me on turning performance. However I did get used to having two metres of edge to stop my 17 stone sliding down the mountain in icy conditions.

Cymru am Byth, I'd agree with what Spyderman, said re Courcheval. Piste prep is superb and there's a lot of easy off-piste coming back from top of coqs chair towards 1850. i was there mid March and saw no ice.
