The Breeze is a great looking ski and perfect for the intermediate and advanced skier. More stability, better handling at speed yet still comfortable for all-day long effort. The Breeze is a stronger and more versatile than the three models beneath, a broader shape also gives more support for adventurous skiing and [...]

Featuring all Fischer’s ski know-how in one intermediate package designed specifically for women. As you would expect they are feather light and the overall skiing experience is one of comfort and forgiveness rather than out and out performance. As this is a pair of Fischer skis though, expect them to carve a [...]

Fantastic. The price is incredible, the performance excellent, the Watea 84’s are very agile, easy to use and great for the advanced skier. The 84’s switch from groomers to powder without fuss, they make great short turns, quick, snappy and fun with lots of ease of control and you can carve or [...]

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Stunning performance, smoothness, control, power and stability. In the 193 length this is a serious pair of World Cup skis and not for anyone who isn’t racing on a full-time basis. The shorter lengths are very different skis, the 188’s are still extremely powerful and super-solid underfoot, and [...]

RS Cosworths or XR3i’s of the ski world - the Aeromax Ti’s are loud, brash, in-expensive but grippy, great fun and actually incredibly good value skis - they come in at under £300 all in.

Lighter, a few quid less expensive and more sidecut give you a turnier, livelier initial feel and somewhat frisky pair of skis. Great for the sporty intermediate to advanced skier the Aero GT’s feature a foam core, lightweight and are very easy going but when pushed they don’t respond much more than squirm.They turn-in [...]

In an astonishing turn around it looks like French ski manufacturer Salomon’s “Golden Girl” racer Anja Paerson has left. After a below-par season for Anja it looks like a move to the home of Miller, Maier and Schönfelder could be on the cards, the Austrian manufacturer Head.

They are stunning and we will have a video review coming soon but here are a couple of [...]
