But I would recommend this to a beginner looking for their first pair of skis after having some lessons already, or a skier that just wants to cruise the blues & greens & take in the views”

Beginners & progressing intermediates will find that the RTM 75 playfully provides the perfect gateway to the world of edged turns. The ski is designed with a Woodcore construction to ensure that it always cuts a dashing figure, even when speeds are higher The Wood Core construction consists of the wooden core extending across the width of the ski body & is positioned within the central binding area. The Wood Core delivers extra power under foot & allows easier & lighter flexing at the tip & tail for a smooth, somewhat forgiving performance. Both this, the normal [RTM 75] or dual woodcore [RTM 75is] versions have a unique 3D design which stabilizes the front of the ski body & transmits forces toward the ski’s center for a comfortable ride. For a tip rocker construction this translates into the stability needed for higher speeds without making turns any less gentle to initiate.

Measuring 75mm across the waist, the slender but snappy tip rocker ski with dual woodcore is a real all-round talent on groomed terrain. Ride the Mountain ski constructions are harmonized to different ability levels, skiers ranging from beginner to pros can all find their perfect counterpart. The RTM 75is Features a tip rocker profile, this means that the variable edge length at the shovel makes the ski much easier to turn. It has a cambered area underneath the foot & at the tail, this provides control & support for novices & intermediates. 4 Motion binding is yet another example of creating the perfect setup for each target group. It was developed for the mid-range skis in the RTM series. The rails are set farther apart for optimum power transmission. The Triple Pivot Compact toe is shared by Marker’s well-known Squire binding, & is combined with either a Twin Cam heel or Comfort heel. The dual woodcore RTM 75is version has a unique 3D design which stabilizes the front of the ski body & transmits forces toward the ski’s centre for a comfortable ride. As the name suggests, The Dual Wood Core consists of parallel strips of wood surrounded by PU. Featured in the XTD Progressive construction, it is layered with extra glass sheets top & bottom for added ski rebound. For a tip rocker construction this translates into the stability needed for higher speeds without making turns any less gentle to initiate. At the end of the turn the classically cambered tail provides a clean arc for the curve to follow. The SENSOR models are coincidentally also produced based on this construction principle. Ski

You get allot of ski for your money, the ski is aimed at an intermediate level skier but an advanced skier that is perhaps not skiing hard & fast all day will ride this happily. It has very good edge hold & feels super stable. I was very impressed with the performance of this ski. Is this for me? This ski is a really good intermediate/ relaxed advanced level ski, for the price its performance is incredible. It is a frontside ski, so skiing off the sides won’t really suit it but you will be having so much fun on the piste it won’t matter. If you are into charging reds/blues & the occasional black or just comfortable cruising around the mountain this is very nice ski for the job.

For the skier who skis 1-3 weeks of the year, wanting to progress at their own pace, & needing a ski that will ski in all conditions, its spot-on. Only those craving powder will find it coming up a little short. For infrequent excursions with that light full rocker it is excellent though, & far more interactive & supportive than a traditional piste ski. I would happily have this ski in my personal collection, It feels so easy to turn, almost effortless thanks to the rocker, & eats up choppier sections of snow (Anyone who has skied the 3 Valleys think Meribel at 3pm on a sunny day!) I also like the fact that although it has a steel laminate, it is not as heavy as some of its competitors at this price point, thanks to the 3D construction giving it control without extra weight, & the lighter binding thank found on its bigger brother the RTM 80. If you are mainly a piste skier, & are progressing from an older set of piste skis or early carvers, this is a PERFECT ski to move to, as you get some rocker without feeling you have to transform your skiing style, & will find the smoother feed into & out of the turns a revelation! Is this for me? An ideal ski for the confident intermediate skier wanting to progress through to a more advanced skier wanting an easy to work ski in all conditions, that inspires confidence whatever your level. If you are on a set of fairly old piste skis and

The RTM 80 is a good recommendation for strong skiers who demand top reliability & performance on varied terrain.

Like the RTM 84, the RTM 80 reinforced 3D construction channels forces to the edges. The major difference between the 84 & 80 construction is in the sidewall compared to the cap. The cap construction on the RTM 80 makes this full rocker ski more forgiving & a bit softer in the general ride characteristics yet still delivers the necessary power reserves for athletic skiers pushing their limits. The Extended (XTD) Wood Core is used in XTD Progressive constructions. More forgiving than the Extended Sensorwood Core, it consists an solid central section that extends toward the tip & tail. Ski

It is a very useable ski in a variety of conditions & will, without question, put a smile on your face.
