Poster: A snowHead

Hi folks thinking of buying these for Mrs BS has anyone tried them? She is an intermediate red / Blue crusier with asperations to dabble with off piste. Any views on them or equivilants we ought to look at. Cheers.

bladeski, isn't the Attraxion I the begginer ski of this range? I'd be inclined to go up the range a bit. I got the Attraxion VI last year and IIRC pamw has the Attraxion V and likes it. A friend of mine bought the Attraxion III too and she liked that. Very, very good ski, and with the oversized shovel of a tip it is well suited to her dabbling off piste.

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

agree with sarah, about the I being a beginner. I was tired of battling 5 days with a offpiste twin tip when there wasnt much soft stuff left, and they only had the I to hire me for the last days. They are real easy to ski, but not really at any speed, and def wouldnt be for offpiste - they are pretty narrow as i recall

bladeski, yes, I'd go for the higher end of the range. These are mine. http://global.skipass.com/gearguide/ski/2007/rossignol/Attraxion-V.html
They're a couple of years old and I think were top of their range at the time - I bought them second-hand. It says they're for experts (which I'm not). They're fine on piste, not difficult at all - I'm very pleased with them. You can dabble off piste, but I don't think they're particularly built for that.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Modern skis with waists of less than 75mm cannot be considered any sort of 'off piste friendly'.
