Derived from the Radical R9S Ti Oversize skis but easier to control.

Sharing the same sidecut as the R9S but being a much gentler beast the 8S is a pleasure to use for advanced skiers but will give an intermediate a thorough workout and introduction to the joys of slalom/short-turn skiing and having your legs zip beneath and out from you. For less aggressive, powerful or agile advanced skiers the shape of the 8S will feel very easy to exploit with the toned-down flex but intermediate skiers will love the new-found “bite” that the skis posses over run-of-the-mill piste carvers. Worth a try especially if you are skiing early in the season with firm snow conditions and want better grip on icy pistes.
