Head MONSTER 88 (Page 2)

Strengths:
Incredibly good skis, they clearly made the best I went on! I thought I was developing in my ride by going on them and giving a little extra dimension to the ride. They are almost as superb in the piste as in the powder. I have both used the ski as a ski school teacher for the promotion and in the powder in the border. Because the ski is of a sandwich design, the ski is a thornsticker than many other "fat", which means that they get a really good edge grip in the piste and at the same time they float in the outside of the piste in all circumstances without being a very "fat" ski, mine is 89 in the waist. I am mostly off-piste and preferably fast but also like to nurse pist now and then, consider me to class advanced skiers who go about 30 days a year.

Weaknesses:
After a season of about 30-35 days on skis, of which about 20 of these, I discovered no direct weaknesses, not even the top of which "Headed" by Head seems to have been a problem earlier. Possibly maybe I would like to have the skid a bit wider at my waist if I was a little heavier, they probably fit the best middle-aged rider.

Summary:
A very good skiing for all conditions, pist as an off-piste, has slipped over to the other side of the Atlantic for a season now. Relative short turning radius and twist rig make them a much better all-round purchase for advanced (medium-sized) riders than a couple of freeride skis.

Model year: 2007
Riding style: Most pillows but also a lot of pistons.
Length on the ski: 186 cm
Riders weight: 75 kg
Riders length: 180 cm

Strengths:
I have searched and tested many varieties that could be worthy successors of my Bandit XX, which is now taking place. This winter, I tested the Scott Santiago Mission, Völkl Mantra, Scott P3 and Monster 88 all well-known good skis with high test results in this year's skiing tests.
I can only say that my new Monster 88 is playing in an all-in-one division. It's all about pillows, sorbet, ice cream and manchesterpist. The skis are terribly fast-paced and unfair to lay and cut, they work forwards, backwards and even in the air.

Weaknesses:
?

Summary:
I thank my Bandits for the great time we spent together and welcome my new Monster friends to my stable, I also want to watch and thank Head's designers for the underground.

 Thanks a million!!!

Model year: 2006
Riding style: Everywhere, about 5 per season 1/2 loose heel and 1/2 locking heel.
Length on the ski: 175 cm
Riders weight: 73 kg
Riders length: 174 cm

Strengths:
Stabila, you can drive really fast under any conditions. Fans add everything: pistons, cushions, wine packs, scarcely crowded and humped

Weaknesses:
Have a little too short turning radius if you have a really fat slope in front of you. Not directly light-grained in the air

Summary:
All skis are a compromise. There are even better skis for pusher and there are skis that are better in piste but this is a really successful compromise

Model year: 2006
Riding style: Yes
Length on the ski: 186 cm
Riders weight: 72 kg
Riders length: 172 cm

Strengths:
The ski is awesome. Really works everywhere
Okay, is not any higher, but then speed63 is good enough.

Weaknesses:
The one who can not handle the ski, sorry you can not go skiing ...

Summary:
Totally amazing skiing, the rumor is not wrong. The ski fits for us who can ski really hard, it allows us to be heavy.

Model year: 2006
Length on the ski: 186 cm
Riders weight: 100 kg
Riders length: 184 cm

Strengths:
Tried the skis for two days in Åre. Catched them from the Heads Test Center at the Olympiabarget (f. Very good service)

+ Good feeling through the woods.
+ Was easily maneuvered.
+ Flatten well in the Offpiste.
+ Also be good at the piste.
+ Nice to drop with

Weaknesses:
No direct weaknesses found.

Summary:
These skis are the best all-round I tested. Had good qualities all over the mountain!
Owning a couple now, then I was impressed with its characteristics during the test!

Model year: 2006
Riding style: Pist, Forest and Drop
Length on the ski: 186 cm
Riders weight: 76 kg
Riders length: 184 cm

Strengths:
Extremely playful freestyle skis that impressed. I have always been skeptical of Head and think they have thrown thin skis but this is the cannon. Good bet if you lean forward a little bit, easy driving in narrow passages (offpiste). Funny to jump with them is not that tight.

Weaknesses:
Have not tested them on larger surfaces (mountain sides), where I can imagine that they are not like the train on a big bang in a slightly worn offpiste, but I do not know. Drive today on the Völkl G4, they are so tight that you do not need to swing.

Summary:
Now I have ordered a pair that should say everything

Model year: 2006
Riding style: Offpist, forest and drop
Length on the ski: 186 cm
Riders weight: 83 kg
Riders length: 190 cm

Strengths:
The design makes them very stable, can pull a lot without losing it.
Very good edge grip for and being so wide.
Plows puckles and raised loosely no matter how well.
Turns very well at the right speed.

Weaknesses:
Difficult and find some direct.
Had not done anything with an even longer, type 194.

Summary:
Tested in hard well-groomed pistons and harvested opisted slopes.
Unbelievably good, but does not get up properly until it goes really fast.
