They say

We say

This Radical takes its shape from the slalom skis within the range, and this is really apparent as soon as you start to ride the edge. It produces a tight, grippy arc which feels very strong in any conditions. Though it’s geared up for hard snow, it’s surprisingly capable in softer snow too. In long turns, it holds an edge effortlessly, but the shape can start to feel twitchy. Overall, a punchy, short- turning ski.

Tester Comments

Coped well with different variations of snow; great in short turns

Surprisingly smooth. Very grippy - feels like a slalom ski
