The short ones are real skis, wood core sandwich construction with sidewalls and sintered bases. They make a wide range of carving skis up to a massive 12m radius ) . Most of Lustis production goes to the major Austrian brands, their own brand skis are only marketed in the Czech Republic, but they will ship abroad. They are extremely good value £275 will get you a FIS spec racing ski. Perhaps the most interesting ski in the range is the tiny Giraffe 70cm/1.5m, which they say can be used to teach children from the age of 3 to carve.

Obviously the DPS is much more interesting, especially the Wailer / Yvette 112RP I'm surprised that Bandit doesn't already have a pair in her quiver.

Oh, apparently I'm not nearly a good enough skier to do justice to such lovely skis. I'd also like to plead poverty :D
