 Poster: A snowHead
|
....anyone demo'd or have any experience on these?
Snowinn (shoddy sevice i know) have these at £260, seems like a bargain, but i a little worried about speed limit as well as these being to much for my ability (i am rubbish off piste but want to progress .... and go fast)

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

these were the first fatter skis I got, I really liked them but they are reasonably stiff, the newer ones with rocker should make them a bit easier to ski in tough snow and I wouldn't worry about a speed limit, 260 is a good price, does that include bindings?

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

Cheers all,
Windymiller, were yours fully rockered like the 2013 model? If so did you notice any issues on piste? (these would be my do everything ski)
Lyseyf, No bindings, is OK though as ski's will go on my wall till i find a deal on bindings 
Also they only have 171's in, at 5'11 85kg i guess i should get 179's. Hoping the shorter lenghth would be a good offset against my abilty level ??

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

+1 here. I have been using the bridges(2012 model, fully rockered) as my 1 ski quiver this season and find them to be an excellent compromise for both on piste and off piste.
You will not have a problem on piste,they behave very well and I do not notice the width under foot.

MrAC, much earlier model (pre all this fancy rocker stuff) 2007/8 - all in I had a brilliant time on them and skied them regularly until this season
when I moved up to something fatter/longer and greener (preachers)

MrAC, short length and your wish to "go fast" don't really go well together...........

MrAC I had 179cms and they were pre rocker, I wouldn't have wanted them shorter, I'm 5'9.
