Twintricks Adult Freestyle Skis - Orange and Blue

Construction:

Woodcore Tec is a construction with a wooden core and vertical edges. The advantage of this construction is that it offers great versatility when skiing and plenty of comfort regardless of snow conditions.

Bindings:

Tyrolia branded bindings, Attack 11, Din 3 to 11.

Durability:

PE top sheet that is usually used in the base. Consequently, there is less flaking of the ski and it transports less snow. Elastomer reinforcement (ROBUST T&T) at the nose and tail for absorbing shocks on rails and on landing.

Preparation:

Ready-to-use waxed and sharpened skis. Edges sharpened at 89°

What is an arch?

When placing a ski on the ground, the ski points of contact on the ground are found near the tip and heel whereas the middle of the ski (under the attachments) is slightly raised (this is the arch).

The longer and higher the arch, the more high-impact and responsive the ski.

The lower, the more tolerant and manageable it is.

What is a rocker?

On a rocker ski, the tip (and sometimes the heel) come off the ground well before the ski arch. This shifts the points of contact towards the centre of the ski. The ski surface in contact with the snow immediately provides manoeuvrability and ease of handling on soft snow. When taking corners, the edge length provides grip on hard snow. The longer the rocker, the more manageable the ski.A shorter rocker makes the ski less prone to slipping

FULL CAMBER

Skiing with a full-length camber to facilitate precision and prevent slipping. Twin-tipped shape for manoeuvrability.

What are ski sidecuts?

The sidecuts have 3 sides, the width of the tip (front of ski), the skate (middle of ski) and the heel (back of ski).

The wider the tip, the easier it is to enter turns.

The slimmer the skate, the more tenacious the ski on hard snow.

The wider the skate, the more comfortable and stable the ski in changing snow conditions.

The wider the heel, the more involved the ski in turns.

The slimmer the heel, the easier it slides.

What is a ski radius?

Do you like making big turns? Then choose skis with a wide sidecut radius (> 18m). Less vibrations and more comfortable management.

You will love everything: big turns, small turns? Therefore select a universal sidecut radius of between 14 and 18 m (medium radius). If you prefer small turns, select a sidecut radius < 14 m. Skis with a small sidecut radius respond more quickly and turn better.
