A ski for the fun-loving woman who feels she is beginning to excel on the frontside of the mountain and aspires to master it. An ex demo model with very little use in excellent condition. Ideal for piste skiing and carving.Ex UK Ski Test Demo Ski
This is an ex demo ski from the UK ski test, it has done ONE run at the test, on snow, so is in near perfect condition, with minoor marks that you would expect of a ski having been taken up a bubble and chairlift and skied down. It comes with a full warranty, and is waxed and polished before shipping or collection.
The Flair 76 Elite provides prime performance for the intermediate and advanced skiers looking to elevate their skiing on piste.
The partial sidewall construction features enhanced edge grip and stability at the center of the ski for frontside carving, and a more forgiving tip and tail for all adventures, maybe even a few off the groomers. When the snow conditions get variable the tip rocker is there to provide clearance and easier turn initiation.
The lightweight vMotion2 Binding system features a wide interface with the ski creating better power transmission. Plus, the easy step-in-heel technology is GripWalk compatible, keeping your feet comfortable in and out of your skis.
The Flair 76 Elite is the gateway ski to bigger things.
