Men’s downhill ski with bindings - Boost 900 R
We developed these exclusively on-piste skis for advanced skiers looking for the right balance between precision and performance for their preferred turn.
Carving and grip: this 100% Alpine ski range is prepared for carving different turns at high speed, whilst maintaining control of the ski throughout the descent.
BENEFITS
Precision
Three 13 to 15 m curve radii, this ski is very precise in its trajectories.
Energy return
Strong thanks to a very present tail that regains power when exiting turns.
Stability
This ski is highly stable thanks to its carbon-assisted hold in curves
Traction
Ultra quick and stable edge changes on hard ice packed snow.
Ease of handling
Oversize tip for easier carving.
TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
One range, three different skis: choose your ski to suit your preferred curved turns, not according to size.
Three skis: choose according to the routine and not according to size.
XTR - Xtra-Short Turn - 166 cm = for very short turns with ultra-fast edge changes.
STR - Short Turn - 171 cm = the most versatile.
MTR - Medium Turn - 176 cm = for wider turns and/or making very wide turns at speed.
Sidecuts.
XTR, 166 cm: 122/68/103, R = 12.8 m.
STR, 171 cm: 122/68/103, R = 13.6 m
MTR 176 cm: 122/68/103, R = 14.5 m
This is the width of the tip, waist and tail. A wide tip enters the turn easily, a narrow waist grips well. The shorter the radius, the more tight the turns.
Structure.
These skis have been designed with a wooden core along the entire length that ensures uniform distortion in turns and provides dynamism and stability. The carbon reinforcement boosts acceleration, while the vertical melamine edges grip on hard snow.The base has a high molecular weight.
Bindings.
LOOK brand bindings, NX 12 KONECT GW model in black.
GripWalk compatible, Din 3 to 12.
These bindings fit ski boots with a sole length between 255 mm and 378 mm.
Weight.

In 171 cm: 6.1 kg
In 176 cm: 6.3 kg
Solidity.

Preparation.
Ready-to-use waxed and sharpened skis. Edges sharpened to 89°.
Maintaining your skis: before, during, or after the season ends?
Maintenance is required to keep skis in good condition! Ideally perform the following maintenance routine before storing in the garage at the end of the season: apply a generous coat of wax for summer hibernation, to prolong their lifespan.Get our advice on our website or ask our team members in our shops.
What is a camber?
On the ground, the contact points between the ski and the snow are near the tip and the tail, while the centre (under the bindings) lifts slightly (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 and manoeuvrable the ski is.
