CLOUD NINE WOMEN'S GROOMED SLOPE SKIS - BLACK

Construction:

The "half-cap" construction at the tip and tail protects the ski from mechanical damage, while the construction of the structure by the binding increases its cushioning and shock absorbing capacities and therefore improves grip along the edges.

The lightweight Cap Fibre construction reduces the weight of the ski and offers optimal performance.

Bindings:

Atomic bindings, LITHIUM 10 model

Durability:

Metal tip end to limit impact on tip

Preparation:

Waxed and sharpened skis, ready to use. Edge 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, which serves to move the ski points of contact towards the centre. 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. The shorter, the more high-impact the ski.

V shape

With its pronounced V-shape, it is ideal for cutting curves with precision or making fluid sliding turns.

Heel fit

Helps you to save your energy: the raised tail allows skiers to have a more natural position on the ski and therefore achieve a greater level of control and precision.

Flex

The flex zones on the Cloud make it particularly easy to control. Indeed, the flex softens with great accuracy from the tip to the tail.
