Strengths:
I rented this model (158cm) when i was unable to rent my favourite slamon race ski in Lech. It turned out to be a revelation. The package was a joy to hammer at medium/high speeds in the fall line all week and sensed when you were slowing due to tired legs whereas the slalom racer would have been less forgiving. If you enjoy short swings and carves in firm conditions then jump on these.
Weaknesses:
Not that I tested them to the limit but would guess they would start to give way on bigger faster GS carves, and certainly less stable in a straight line, but as with any super shape ski you cant have it all, so not real negatives for my style of skiing...The one negative is the price !..but at vip rental rates you would soon have your money back.
Summary:
A gem of a ski.
Model year: 2011
Riders weight: 72 kg

Strengths:
- funny
- easily controlled, almost too easy but one gets used to it soon :)
- stable, sick safe in high lanes and on exposed surfaces
Weaknesses:
- the price. Bought my for 750 € online from Germany (www.xspo.de) which was significantly cheaper than they cost in Sweden. I bought a lock too so I could enjoy my espresso on the hill in peace and quiet ...
Summary:
I spend at least 2 per year of which 1 week in the Alps.
Have just spent a week in the Italian Alps (Cortina, Alta Badia etc.) and I'm completely lyrical. I've probably never had more fun before!
Highly recommended and I think even average skiers would really lift this ski.
