Strengths:
super light and despite the fat waist easy to get on edge. Surprisingly good grip even if it is best in powder and slush

Weaknesses:
requires active skiing and nothing for short snob turns under the lift

Summary:
The best fat skis I went on and also good looking!
The only downside would be the price ...

Strengths:
Easy genuine. Gets a fan everywhere. Good flow and for me pretty soft

Weaknesses:
Very sensitive to side strokes as they are very thin there.

Summary:
The fastest way down the mountain I walked on, through ramparts, winds, blue and powder. They eat everything and sound a little different

Strengths:
Reliable in all types of substrates, lightweight stable and smooth despite its size

Weaknesses:
That I did not buy them earlier. (if you want to go to the Gondola in Kläppen, you have to take Katanorna into the cabin, as they are too wide for skiing)

Summary:
A ski that takes you wherever you want and how much you dare, the ski is more like.

Strengths:
Easy, speed-stable, good flow in crushed pads. Despite its radius, it is easy to make a short run in the piste. Great edge grip on hard surface.
Have driven three days in Engelber in both hard ground and dump. Clearly the best ski I drove

Weaknesses:
In the event of a storm run, they may become a bit sluggish / planky.

Summary:
A ski that really works everywhere and who likes to drive fast! A real charger!

Strengths:
Funny skis I had. Wide range of offpiste in Japan / Hokkaido (fluff) and in the Dolmites (heavy deep snow) and on the piste in Åre, Ramundberget, Vemdalen

Weaknesses:
gets fast laterally if you are burdened in deep snow and hit hard underneath

Really hard and icy just turn in type 23 m radius ski shape works. Because of the width I can not stand in a sharp turn when it's 25-30 degrees hard ground to speed I'm too weak simply.

Summary:
Very good offpiste. Most good off-piste skiing is bad in piste: these are almost like my W-work RTM 84. can go fast in the piste,


I used to go 80 years a year and lived in Chamonix and Lyngen in the ancient times. now down to 21

Strengths:
Lightweight, amazing in pillows / lice. Cruel even in hard / icy pistons. Best crossover ski I own / tested in the crossover segment.

Weaknesses:
Sluggish / worried hard before when they lie on the slab, but will be completely calm when tackling them.

Summary:
Jump to buy.
Works everywhere, the downside to my ride style is that they build a lot of speed in pist.</s>

Strengths:
Good grip, stable and feel safe in all situations. Predictable in the offpiste, fun to lay on long runs in the piste. No instability in high traffic. Slightly Curved

Weaknesses:
Well, have not experienced any. Yes to lift one hand because of the narrow edge that others pointed out, but it's up to the feet to judge them

Summary:
Awesome skis, not beating them yet. For me they were maybe a little tall (191 cm) but more of a mental thing. However, I moved the tie 2 cm in front of the rack. Before that I thought it was far too much forward, with a new position they were balanced, like another ski run. Have not tried all the skis that exist so leave space in the grade for something better, but definitely one of the best skiing I own.

Strengths:
Easy. Stable on cutting. Cut through the heights and dashes. Good bearing capacity. Easy to change swing radius. Easy to hatch on too. Good kick out of turn!

Weaknesses:
Sounds bad on hard snow, a bit "ceramic " as well. Have noticed it on other columns as well. A bit indefinite (unstable?) When you do not charge it. Perhaps due to the low weight, a habit. Not really the same "punch " and rebounds like a couple of Hendryx Funkallistic (unfair comparison maybe ...)

Summary:
Driving in the first hard night frost piste, later in the day in half-thinned pist followed by pistons with sludge feathers and piles (there are no pillows). Good move in them after a couple of runs, lies very well in the track, carving in half pasted piste was really fun! Turned more than the specified 25.8 m, probably on the rocker. Easy to combine ice with carving moments, good control. Because I can compare with Hendryx Funk, the rating is not the highest, but with a little more in-game, you are likely to basically do the same things on them as Funkarna. Then they are cool with their black and white color, white rext, yellow edges and super thin profile!

Ridged 191 cm in December but did not get any real impression then, probably due to short travel time and mixed hard before. 184th is okay!

Strengths:
The weight is obviously hard not to point out, every gram under foot makes difference especially if you are going to ride a little.
Sick stable, really trust! just to gasp :-)
Dimensions, not too wide to cope with upright and hard, not too narrow to give a nice flow in the powder

Weaknesses:
Obviously requires his skier! it is important to stand on and to energy ....
Not easy to carry with a hand if you do not want to slap their gloves, difficult to grasp because they are so thin at the edges, really practiced my new ability ;-)

Summary:
Easily the best ski I've had so far, has run both on Gotama & Kuro before, but not "old" Katana.
Giving really confidence and just gazing on, experienced me as a clearly better skier in the harvested offpiste (read Longan / Lavancher a few days after last snowfall).
This is a real freeride charger in my world! log as a twelve year most the whole time ....
If I were in season, I would easily bet on these as single-skid, fix everything outside the piste with good luck and well in the piste, so is the old-known volleyball performance that applies :-) What's up there now? ;-)

Edit: after two weeks in Japan, just realize that it is not wide enough to cope with the light and deep snow here

Model year: 2014
Riding style: From self-taught off-piste fox to Step 2 in ski instructor education that enjoys all the rides but still focuses on it outside the slope
Length on the ski: 184 cm
Riders weight: 80 kg
Riders length: 181 cm
