Sport Performance Short Turn 2025
A little challenge: who needs slalom skis? These nimble, agile sports stars have nothing to hide when it comes to performance. In fact, they offer a more versatile and thoroughly exciting all-round package! While pure SL racers are for technical experts, these 14 models deliver short-turn thrills at the highest level for any sporty skier.
The moderate short-turn racer
This is a premium ski positioned alongside Slalom and Giant Slalom models.
It is a turn specialist for skiers who enjoy angles and tight radii but want a little more help.
Compared to a Slalom ski, it is less aggressive and easier to handle – ideal for long ski days where endurance matters.
Is this the right ski type for you?
Strengths
- At home in short and medium carved turns.
- Softer flex makes it more forgiving and versatile than the race versions.

- Smoothly absorbs small errors, conserving energy.
Weaknesses
- Can lightly skid with less skilled skiers.
- Off-piste or chopped terrain requires solid technique.

Recommended Length: Sport performance short turn skis should be chosen based on your height minus 5–10 cm.
