A performance groomed run ski for the progressing intermediate & advanced skier, this ski borrows from it’s big sister the MYA No. 7 to produce a nimble & confidence inspiring piste ski. The MYA No 5 is a smooth & nimble piste carving ski. At 71mm underfoot it is incredibly agile but has a little extra width to inspire confidence & produce a more ‘planted’ feel when skiing. The result is a ski that is easy to feed into ta turn, & exits easily too. For the progressing & intermediate skier, this encourages you to take your skiing to the next level. The incredibly short turning radius of just 10.8 metres ensures you always feel in control of your turns. All of this is possible to the main feature of this ski – era 3.0 Technology, which combines three key design elements to product & incredibly easy to manoeuvre ski whatever the snow conditions. The ski is finished beautifully with a new holographic top sheet, & clear bases with complimentary graphics underneath. FEATURES & BENEFITS ERA 3.0 takes 3 key technologies to combine them into one awesome skiing package: 1. ALLRIDE ROCKER A targeted amount of rocker is placed in each era 3.0 ski to compliment the radius of the ski, to ensure maximum performance for all ability levels. Steering is easier for all skiers & soft snow versatility is enhanced. 2. PROGRESSIVE RADIUS Regular rocker makes skiers place their ski further on edge to get the full edge length from tip-to-tail. With Head’s progressive radius, up to 50% less angulation is required to enjoy full edge contact. More edge on the snow means more edge grip. 3. INTELLIRISE REBOUND Head have moved their legendary piezoelectric Intellifibers to the tip of the skis. The nasty tip vibrations found on regular rockers are not found here. These skis are too smart for that. The Diffusor Tail on this ski allows the tail of the ski to flex into the turn a little further, & then spring back as you exit the turn giving you a little extra ‘turbo-boost’! SKI
