Sporty, strong intermediate ski with a slightly narrower sidecut that will suit more traditional skiers yet still carve on the feet of modern advanced skiers. A good performer but nothing inspirational, but inspirational means that you often have to work hard and this ski is quite relaxed and happy to glide around the hill looking racey whist not being driven so. The Salomon Crossmax 10 would be a hop in performance whilst the 8 would be a tamer choice, the Head I XRC 800 is also a great mid-speed carver.
