    Krypton 130 with tech inserts

    Faction CT 3.0 2020

    Has anybody skied current Candide 3.0? I hand flexed them and it felt way too stiff ski for a freestyle all mountain/pow ski. How do they handle pow? Are they butterable with ease or it’s a hardworking ski? How are they on slow speed? I assume they are quite good on high speeds due to stiffness...

    Looking for just slightly stiffer CT 2.0

    Hi guys. Recently I skied CT 2.0 which were mount on Candide line. I really liked swing weight, flex and rail performance in park. However I have doubts about its offpiste performance (bumps, chop, slush). So I'm looking for just slightly stiffer but still playful skis. I'm looking to current...

    Can’t ski in 3piece boots

    I skied 3piece design boots most of the time in past (Dalbello Krypton 120 and then 130). But this season I mostly skied Atomic Hawx Ultra XTD. Today I tried my krypton for the first time this year. And I felt like I had forgotten how to ski. I had hard time to get skis on edge and make a good...

    Jack of all trades all mountain playful skis

    In previous treads I asked for something that is very similar to K2 pettitor. I was suggested to try k2 shredittor and marksman. I tried and didn't like them. To sloppy on speed and hard snow. I liked shreditor more than marksman, but still to soft for me. I decided that I need to go for...
