Short turns
When applying this technique, you perform rapid rhythmic turns close to the fall
line. Your skis should be hip width apart. At the end of a turn plant a pole, raise
the posture and rotate skis around tips to start the opposite turn. Continue through
the turn and start lowering the posture after passing the fall line. Apply much
pressure on edges at the end of a turn. Then start the opposite turn. This technique
is worth applying when you encounter a steep terrain.

Skis
Giant
Skis designed for high speed smooth turns with radius length between
16-23m. Nominal values are possible to obtain on well prepared, hard
and steep surface. Stable performance is guaranteed due to hard ski structure. In comparison
with a slalom ski, giant one is less side-cut,...

Slalom
Skis designed for short radius and sudden turns at lower speeds on well prepared
and hard surface. Short radius of turns (between 9-15m) is achieved thanks to deep
side-cut. Aggressive attacking slalom poles is possible due to...

Freeride
Skis dedicated for off-piste. Designers want to decrease the ski pressure on the
surface to prevent from sinking in powder. This aim is obtained thanks to increased
length and width. Also deep side-cut is...
