Poster: A snowHead

Hi guys,
Going to Courchevel 1650 in a week and I thought I’d do the 2 for 1 deal at Ski Republic!
I was on a Atomic Bootcamp a few moths ago and really really loved the Metron 9's (i nearly borough some but though better of it!). I would like a ski like this for my Courchevel trip, what would you recommend from the ski republic range? I ski on pist, mostly on red runs and I’d class my self as an intermediate, and I’m just starting to get the hang of carving.

Also, are ski republic ok to hire from?
Cheers guys!
Matt

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

mf-racing, Dynastar Contact 9 or 10's depending on your weight - the shop will advise you. I was in 1650 over Christmas & a couple in the Chalet were also on Ski Republic's 2 for 1 deal & they skis they were on were brand new for this season. Not sure if they delivered/collected the skis though as they're in 1850 which would be a pain if you've got to collect & return. although the bus service is great.

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

I've been told the Fischer RX 8's are very similar to the metron 9's in terms of level ability, but the fishers are way more forgiving! I've ended up buying the Fischer's as I don't fancy getting punished by the Metrons for lazy skiing if I've got a hangover!
So anyway, I'd recommend you try the Fischer RX 8's! (their edges also grip on ice really nicely!)

There is a separate Ski Republic shop in 1650, so no need to go to 1850, though it is not very close to the lifts.

benzanna3, RX8 beats the Metron 9 in so many ways it's almost unspeakable.
