Head Super Joy review 2019
PROSKILAB™ reviewers' comments
The Super Joy from Head is a consistent ski that performs well and is happy in all types of ride, including at high speed. The ski is very responsive.
The reviewers felt that it didn't absorb uneven terrain as well as some models, making the ride uncomfortable on bumpy surfaces. It's a high-performing ski that demands a little technical skill.
The Super Joy is a great ski for good to very good riders looking for a model that's both efficient and reliable.
Review: Pros
- Performance
- Happy in skid turns and carving
- Accessible
- Responsive and fun
Review: Cons
- Requires engagement to get the most from it
- Slight lack of comfort, less efficient at absorbing uneven terrain
