Very interesting ski from Icelantic. It’s a new design for 2011 and has a lot of interesting features. Big shovel and waist so you float over everything….powder, crud, mixed. Little bit of rocker makes you fell like you’re on a shorter ski when your hucking turns on the groomers, and it’s stiff enough to inspire confidence when you start going faster.

The ski is very close to a 1-ski quiver, as it can do it all well.

Dislikes

Nice try with the graphics – themed art, but I’m more a fan of simplicity and letting the material in the ski speak for itself.
