The S/ Max 10 has everything you want from a ski built for groomed runs. edge Amplifier ramps up energy transmission by integrating the ski/binding system more effectively than ever before, resulting in unmatched levels of grip & precision on even the hardest snow. The wood core, Titanal reinforcing & semi sandwich sidewall construction ensure power & stability for skiing at speed on any surface. Terrain Type & Ability Level Terrain Type Pistes are the home, forget about anything else. Red runs & blacks, it will cruise a blue run but you’ll be missing the fun factor that a bit of speed & some quick edge changes can bring on steepr slopes. Skier Typeexperienced intermediates up to advanced skiers looking for precision & energy. Though the S/ Max 10 may not be so much about all-out power, you can push it pretty hard. It’s for piste enthusiasts who want to rack up mile after mile of turns on groomed snow. They’ll be good skiers with an understanding of how to carve but they don’t have to be turning the skis totally cleanly yet, there could still be some skid at the start or end of the turn. This model will help to perfect the turns because turning is its forte, &, if you’ve forgotten how much fun it can be then get ready to remind yourself. Overview Shape 73mm in the waist & a 15m radius (170cm) means this ski likes to turn & switch edges quickly whilst having enough width to feel nice & solid when the snow roughs up. It keeps the widest sections far into the tip & tail for a long effective edge & better grip. The tip has enough of a smooth transition so that it is predictable in to turns; the width on the blunt tail holds on right through a carve. Rocker No rocker on this ski, it’s full camber for full grip & maxium response Core A full poplar woodcore maximises stability & liveliness while ensuring good ski-to-snow contact. A double layer of Titanal, one on either side of the core, boosts hard snow performance. It increases precision, offers a good edge grip & improves responsiveness. Construction Semi Sandwich Sidewall is the best of both. The cap at the tip & tails reduces the swing weight, adds durability & assists with starting & completing turns due to its forgiveness. The sidewall underfoot improves the precision & the grip on firmer snow. Key Featuresedge Amplifier SLThis is a built-up area through the centre of the ski around the binding, visually obvious, you can sense how it will affect the ski. The redesigned, SL specific 2-piece edge Amplifier provides 30% more grip while maintaining the right amount of flex underfoot for increased reactivity, agility & grip.e B tester’s comments: Steve (Buying Team) The thrill of carving clean arcs & accelerating through turns is brought to life by the power, response & control of the S/ Max 10.
