Alpine skiing

No matter when the snow that winter sports enthusiasts have been longing for will cover the slopes and mountains this season, one thing is certain: The ski industry does not wait for winter to arrive, but works at high speed on the latest technologies all year round. The central themes of the past months include: Sustainability and environmental protection – many manufacturers are taking the first steps towards climate neutrality as well as light weight, comfort and electronics.

The skis with racing genes

Skiers who love speed will also quickly find a place in their hearts for these three models – the Atomic Redster G9 Revo S, its line-mate Redster S9 Revo S and the Fischer RC4 THE Curv DTX. Both Atomic skis feature the new Revoshock technology, which ensures that the super-fast ski accelerates with every turn and is great fun on icy slopes early in the morning. Because they demonstrate maximum smoothness and the highest performance. Thanks to the Ultrawall sidewall construction, they offer power and the edge grip of a full-length sidewall, paired with the robustness of Dura Cap.

A two-layer Titanium Powered laminate provides ultimate torsional stiffness and, together with the Power Woodcore, guarantees insane edge grip from the beginning to the end of the turn. You can see the roots of these two skis lie in racing, just like the Fischer RC4 The Curv DTX. Thanks to the Radical Triple Radius, this ski is sensationally dynamic in every turn, regardless of whether the radius is short or long. In addition, it brings a lot of stability and enormous edge grip. It is the perfect ski for ambitious skiers and for every day of the season. All Curv models guarantee the ultimate curve experience as well as skiing fun – from the first to the last turn! The Curv is also available as a women's model called Curv DTX WS.

High-quality skis for women

One of the best-selling piste skis for women is the Atomic Cloud 9 (RRP € 499.99, price includes M 10 GW ski binding). It is "the little black" ski of the Atomic piste collection – elegant, very pleasing and the right choice for every occasion. In fact, the Cloud 9 is a great mix of style and performance and has also been equipped with Servotec Light on the top part of the ski – providing an even more effortless and energy-saving glide on the piste. The high-quality HEAD Real Joy women's ski (RRP € 500.00) takes you effortlessly through the whole day. This ski is a comfortable, sporty all-rounder that guarantees optimum weight distribution and perfect balance and control thanks to Graphene technology. The ski is extremely energy-saving and supports the skier in their technique. For those women who care about more than just the perfect turn when skiing, the Salomon S/Max W6 (RRP: € 399.99) is the perfect ski: it's easy to control and still ensures precise turns all day long. The edges experience even higher energy transfer, resulting in more grip on the edges and uniquely grippy skiing.

The HEAD Supershape e-Magnum (RRP: € 850.00) was developed for the classic all-terrain skier who needs a reliable performance ski. Slightly easier to handle than a high-performance race ski, the e-Magnum offers premium performance features and effortless handling for the ultimate ski day on (and even off) the slopes. It has the new innovative EMC technology that reduces vibrations and increases stability to create a smoother skiing experience. And no matter how long you're enjoying the slopes, you can count on the e-Magnum – on and off the piste. The absolute all-rounder among the Supershapes.

 

 

For medium-length radii on hard slopes, sporty skiers choose the Blizzard Thunderbird R15 (RRP: € 900.00) with the Marker TPX12 demo binding. The Trueblend Piste Woodcore, a wood core with longitudinally glued wood types of different hardness, gives the ski its dynamic and agile behaviour on hard slopes. In addition, the Blizzard saves weight thanks to its wooden core. Active Carbon Armor technology, a free-sliding carbon plate on the ski, absorbs recoil and vibrations in a controlled manner. In addition, the Thunderbird R15 convinces with its durability and value.

Ski tours

Light, lighter, touring skis. This development in the industry is no coincidence, as they have to be brought up the mountain with muscle power. In addition, the models for the coming winter season are characterised above all by stability and safety. And the range of good touring skis is growing. So if you want to buy a ski that is right for you but you don't have much experience, you need a good and committed salesperson. This is because the differences are big and the ski should "support" the skier to the best of their ability.

It's all here

The Atomic Backland 86 SL is an extremely light and versatile ski for touring – a slightly wider ski with super-light SL fibreglass, ultra-light wood core and Atomic's Carbon Backbone. This combination of materials results in a super-light ski with high efficiency on the ascent and a balanced feel and stable performance on the descent. Thanks to the All Mountain Rocker and HRZN Tech at the tip of the ski, it also offers sensational lift in powder and ploughs confidently through choppy snow and crushed snow with less spring in the shovel. The notch at the tip of the ski makes it quick and easy to attach and remove Atomic's PreFit skins.

    • These high-quality skins with PreFit Cut for the entire Atomic Backland series no longer require any additional adjustment. They are made of 70% mohair mix and thus offer super-strong grip when climbing. Extremely durable and robust.

    • The Backland Tour is the practical and super-light pin binding for ski touring from Atomic.

The two climbing aids can be folded forwards independently of the rear jaw and offer three walking positions: 0°, 7° or 13°

    The versatile & the freerider

    Extremely light, maximum performance on the ascent, better power transmission and more stability - that's what the Blizzard Zero G 85 (RRP: € 600) stands for, just like the Scott Pure (RRP: € 699.95). Blizzard's touring ski achieves its lightness and stable alignment through Carbon Drive 2.0 technology. The carbon structure provides torsional stiffness as well as optimal flex, so the lightweight also convinces with its downhill quality. For better power transmission and more safety, Blizzard has installed two carbon reinforcements in the binding area. The Uphiller of the Zero G collection has a center width of 85 millimeters. Its forgiving nature and smooth ride at high speeds make the ski versatile. The Pure was developed by and for pro freeskier Jeremie Heitz. It features a progressive Titanal layer that provides extreme harmonic flex and extra power transfer out of the turn, while the ski's stability keeps the line secure when big mountain skiing. Its most impressive feature is the Dual Power wood core, a combination of paulownia wood and two beechwood struts that run the length of the ski for an added advantage in torsional stiffness.
