Strengths:
Carves with great ease, especially on ice. Excellent edge grip. Super stable at high speed.

Weaknesses:
heavy at slow speed and in bumps

Summary:
Best high speed/carving ski. All it wants to do is go edge to edge to edge. The ski says "let go of the brake, I got you covered, we got this, speed on!

Strengths:
Very responsive, stable at high speed, carvery absolutely perfect, grips on everything.

Weaknesses:
Heavy, slightly difficult at low speed as well as short-range and drops like stones in pillows. They do not belong in the air either!

Summary:
My absolute favorite ski slopes. The more you push the skis the better they will become. Responds quickly to movements and is aimed mostly at an advanced skier who likes heavy carvings. Stony-hard and heavy but just do what they say to them to do. The description says that they are sought after by ski instructors and I agree in part. During working hours I would never choose these because it is too difficult to maneuver at low speed and to stack around with them and a couple of Danes become too heavy. But for leisure purposes, I do not want any other.

The chip model is more lightweight at low speed without tumbling on the properties in high.

Owns a pair of 177cm, 50-100 ski days per year.

Strengths:
Very stable at high speeds, nevertheless lightweight. Very good grip on ice / hard lead.

Weaknesses:
Nor can it be found any weaknesses, but if it is such a cause that you want to drive very fast turns it can lose a little more speed than the brother isupershape (slalom edition) Not suitable outside of the piste.

Summary:
Going back this year for the purchase of this amazing ski, 2010/11 was this skier I used (only the colors on the outside that changed). For the winter it was the red isupershape that was the skis that I have spent several seasons. If you drive along Long turns and in steep ice-skating trails I would choose the speed edition. Both good both.
I'm not an active practitioner, but have about 30 days in the ground per Sesong. I have tested 177 ispeed lengths and 175 on isuperhape

Strengths:
Flexible and safe skiing that impresses in well-tended slopes, but at the same time it is relatively open-minded even when it starts to grow up. Good hardness in the skid without requiring extreme leg muscles for that matter.

Weaknesses:
Heavy skis, Doubtful if KERS really makes a direct noticeable difference

Summary:
A good all-round ski if you stay in the slopes, top class ice-grip but lacks a bit of the "sucking" feeling that you can get in long cut turns with some other skis (eg Stöckli Laser SC)

Strengths:
Ice grip, stable in both high and low speed. A fairly low radius allows you to easily combine cards as long turns.

Weaknesses:
Not found any yet.

Summary:
The skis are brilliant but require a bit of leg muscles. Very stable and has a grip - its weight? which is absolutely outstanding. If you love lying down and squeezing yourself, the ski is right for you. Did not test the skid in pillows but I do not think it will be good at cushions, it weighs aldelles too much for it.

Tested 177cm.

Strengths:
* Extremely good attachment on all possible surfaces.
* Really fast and easy to handle at high speed.
* Short Hökarängenstyle or longer tourist style? The ski does not care, it fixes everything.

Weaknesses:
The design, if you have to find a weakness now.

Summary:
Tried these skis a week in Åre last season, I was sold directly. It was just shopping.

Extremely good attachment in the piste. Odd pist or more sorbent-like conditions does not matter, this ski grips directly. Just rush on and pull up a bit of speed, this ski runs like the train. Very easily operated at high speed.

Best ski I've tested.

Model year: 2009

Strengths:
Perfect piste skiing. Stable in high traffic, able to ride well quickly.

Weaknesses:
Too long turn for me, but it's a flavor. Not particularly fun outside the piste, too narrow.

Summary:
A pure pistachio that is really fun to go full! Worthless off the piste.
The rating refers to piste.
