Absolut Race
Bang, here we go! These eleven skis are the sportiest models available on the market for recreational skiers without a racing licence. With crisp, stiff race-spec bases and World Cup pedigree from slalom to giant slalom, they demand excellent technique, stamina and total concentration. The reward: pure dynamism and massive centrifugal force on icy slopes. Conserving energy? Not a chance. These demanding skis are off-limits to beginners and casual skiers!
Racing in its purest form
I’m the sportiest ski available to the average skier – a brutal machine for true muscle-bound skiers and those with racing ambitions. I’ll give you maximum fun when carving on hard slopes, but you’ll need to ski with impeccable technique and be in peak physical condition, because my stiff, ultra-sporty set-up will quickly drain your thighs. I want to be skied dynamically and actively on hard, preferably icy snow; otherwise, I’ll be the one doing the skiing! You can forget about leisurely, drifted turns with me – it’s always full throttle!
My strengths
- High speed and maximum edge engagement are my favourite way to ski
- A ski that’s right at home on the world’s World Cup slopes
- A lean-angle enthusiast for carved turns
- Maximum smoothness and a stiff setup
My weaknesses
- I need speed to reach my full potential
- Don’t even mention soft snow to me! Anyone who ventures off-piste from time to time should opt for more moderate skis with a slightly wider waist
Recommended length: Powerful, dynamic experts who tackle these brutal race skis know exactly what length to go for!
