Carving Skis & Piste Skis
Carving Skis for Slalom and Racing on the Piste
Carving skis, also known as piste skis, are versatile for various disciplines on the slopes. While some carving skis are highly advanced, others are more user-friendly. Designed for stability at high velocities, piste skis can be tricky to manage. Therefore, they are ideal for advanced and expert skiers. Such race skis are also employed at a professional level, such as in world cup events.
The Piste Ski: A Genuine Carving Experience
Typically, the piste ski is constructed as a carving ski with a narrow waist and a broader front. Simultaneously, it features a rigid build to ensure stability. Although piste skis are crafted for the compact snow of the slopes, some newer models have a slightly altered construction, making them somewhat simpler to handle in off-piste scenarios too. However, this should be attempted only by advanced skiers, as it can be quite challenging.
