MEN’S ALPINE SKIS WITH BINDINGS – BOOST 900 R
Store Availability
We developed these exclusively on-piste skis for advanced skiers looking for the right balance between precision and performance for their preferred turn.
A 100% piste ski ready to carve different turns, providing stability and impressive grip at high speed, the ski's advantage is to maintain total control throughout the descent.
BENEFITS
Precision
3 curve radius of 13 to 15 m, accurate trajectory depending on the programme.
Energy return
An extremely responsive strong tail that transfers the power out of curves.
Stability
Incredible stability with reassuring handling in curves thanks to the carbon.
Traction
Ultra quick and stable edge changes on hard ice packed snow.
Ease of handling
Oversize tip for easier carving.
TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
EXPERIENCE
Different radius depending on the height for perfect adaptation to your preferred type turn.
There are 3 sizes to choose from that correspond to 3 programmes. The size of your skis is not determined by your height.
XTR - Extra Short Turn 166cm = allows you to make very short turns with very fast edge changes
STR - Short Turn 171cm = the most versatile of the 900 R range, allowing you to make many types of turns
MTR - Medium Turn 176cm = allows you to turn wider and/or make large, fast curves
STRUCTURE
The ski’s full length wood core ensures even deformation in curves, for a responsive, comfortable and stable ski.
Carbon reinforcement for "energising" the ski during acceleration.
Melamine vertical edges which create a firm grip on hard snow.
High molecular weight sole.
BINDINGS

SIDECUT
122/68/103 for size 166 / 171 / 176 CM
The sidecut corresponds to the mm width of the tip, waist and tail.
As for the curve radius, the smaller it is the shorter the ski will turn (small turns)
The bigger the curve radius the more the ski will turn
3 radius= 3 programmes depending on the preferred type of turn
- Radius XTR = 12.8 m for very short turns
- Radius STR = 13.6 m for short to long turns
- Radius MTR = 14.5 long or high speed turns
What is the rocker?
When placing a ski on the ground, its points of contact are found near the tip and tail, whereas the middle of the ski (under the bindings) is slightly raised. This is the camber. The longer and higher the camber, the greater the edge grip and more responsive the ski. The lower the camber, the more forgiving the ski and the better the handling.
WHAT IS A ROCKER?
On a "rocker" ski, the tip, and sometimes the tail, comes off the ground sooner than with a cambered ski: this has the effect of moving the contact points toward the centre of the ski. The surface of the ski in contact with the snow is shortened and offers manoeuvrability and floatability in soft snow. When leaning into turns, the edge length offers more edge grip on hard snow. The longer the rocker, the better the handling of the ski.
OUR AFTER-SKI ADVICE
After a long day skiing, this is what you need to do to guarantee your ski's long life:
* Wipe your edges with a cloth at the end of the day to prevent rusting.
* Use ski ties to prevent the soles from rubbing against each other.
* Store your skis in a dry place and away from sunlight.
