BEST SKI
SportmaniaA true "Performance" ski, the Blizzard Power 800 S rips up the powder. The ski won over the reviewers in this demanding category thanks to its really strong character, despite the slight lack of accessibility and versatility. An excellent choice for good to very good, athletic and technically-oriented skier.

SportmaniaRossignol Hero Elite LT-Ti review 2015
Men's skis 2015 > Piste performance Best Accessibility/Performance!
The Rossignol Hero Elite LT-Ti is unquestionably a success, and stands out for its very good performance/accessibility ratio. It just falls short of the reviewers’ recommendation. We highly recommend this ski to a wide range of skiers looking mainly for a reliable and effective ski for carving and long turns.

Völkl Racetiger RC Uvo review 2015
Men's skis 2015 > Piste performance Best Accessibility/Performance!
The Völkl is a ski with character that’s extremely easy to use. The combination of these two qualities makes it a wonderful toy that’s full of energy and will give the skier hours of pleasure. A little jewel that we recommend for athletic skiers looking for a lively, playful tool.
We recommend the Stöckli Lazer SX for skiers looking for a serious model with reliable and effective behaviour, that’s especially comfortable in long turns.

Dynastar CR 74 Fluid review 2015
Men's skis 2015 > Piste performance Best Accessibility!
Opinions were divided over the CR 78The professional skiers used to skiing in a very forward position, were no doubt a bit thrown by the more central position. The rest of the reviewers, on the other hand, found the ski globally well balanced and enjoyable. Everyone agreed that the CR 78 Fluid is an excellent choice for carving novices.
The Head Supershape Rally is a good ski, but not aggressive or energetic enough for the Piste Performance category. A good ski for riders who want an easy and intuitive ski for efforless turns.
