I actually race slalom on these skis and find then quick and responsive with good edge hold. A fun ski and excellent value for money.
Buenos en todos los aspectos
Perfecta
TANTO LOS PRODUCTOS COMO LA ATENCIÓN DEL PERSONAL EXCELENTE
Es un esquí muy cómodo , rápido y ligero
Gira bien tan en entrada que en salida. Vibra un poco a la alta velocidad. Ideal para un nivel medio.
Es un esqui que llisca molt be, bona frenada pero avegades baixa manejabilitat.
Hacía muchos años que no esquiaba y en la primera bajada ya he tenido mucha fluidez en dinamismo. No me ha costado el paso de snow a ski. No lo he visto especialmente pesado . Totalmente recomendable!
Precio excelente. Buenas fijaciones. No son esquís para apretarles demasiado, pero son cómodos de llevar.

très bien
Très satisfait de l achat, skis pour mon fils très bien
Pour le prix, je n'en reviens pas. Bonne tenue sur neige fraîche damée ou non, sur la glace également. Comme tous les skis courts il y a un léger flottement lors des schuss très raides et à vitesse "élevée" mais celui ci disparaît si l'on reste concentré sur ses appuis.
Bonne paire de ski, stable, bien pour virage. Pas acheté car couleur ne me convient pas. Proposer plus de choix de couleur.

Experience
The BOOST 500 ski is fairly narrow at the waist, enabling faster transitions from edge to edge to initiate turns more easily. It enables good grip on hard snow, enabling control of speed. It is tolerant but reassuring to support progress from skidded to sliding turns. The aim is pleasure in managing turns and progress.
Construction
Fiber Tec shell: made with a composite core, fiberglass casing from edge to edge for good pressure transfer.
Bindings
Tyrolia bindings, model SLR 10, Din 3 to 10. Fits ski boots with sole length between 10.2" and 13.3"
Durability
Tip cap to reduce shocks on the tip. Structured topsheet for improved durability.
Preparation
Waxed and sharpened skis, ready to use. Edge sharpened to 89°.
What is camber?
When placing a ski on the ground, its points of contact are found near the tip and tail, whereas the middle of the ski (under the bindings) is slightly raised. This is the camber. The longer and higher the camber, the greater the grip and the more responsive the ski. The lower the camber, the more tolerant and manageable the ski.
What is rocker ?
On a "rocker" ski, the tip, and sometimes the heel, comes off the ground much sooner than with a cambered ski: this has the effect of moving the contact points toward the center of the ski. The surface of the ski in contact with the snow is shortened and offers maneuverability and lift in soft snow. When taking corners, the edge length provides more grip on hard snow. The longer the rocker, the better the handling of the ski.
Sidecut
125/72/108 in 66.9", radius = 41'
Our after-skiing advice:
After a long day of skiing, this is what you need to do to guarantee your ski's long life: * Wipe your edges with a rag at the end of the day to prevent rusting. * Use ski ties to prevent the soles from rubbing against each other. * Store your skis in a dry place, away from sunlight.
