Oh, thats interesting.
From what I read, they are an entry level ski, not a ski for entry level skiers.
Tell me ehy your opinion is so different from Ross?

Make certain the bindings have the correct DIN range for you, and that the brakes are wide enough for that ski!

DIN 2.5 up to 9.5. My markers are set at 6 currently.

How do I find out about the brakes and their width?

I wouldn't worry about it, tbh. I presume that the skis will come with an 80mm brake.. they should be able to give you info on that.

You are venturing off the edge into variable conditions, so you will need a softer ski, one that won't give you too many surprises, and one that will turn easily, not a straight line supertanker :mrgreen:

It will give you some extra float with the 78 waist and with the length you have chosen should hold it's line rather well.

My 2p's worth, but what do I know, I'm just a punter same as everyone else :lol:

HEY! Who you calling a punter? :wink:
