Dynastar CR 72 Pro Xpress review 2015
PROSKILAB™ reviewers' comments
It’s a shame! The CR 72 pro Xpress is a really good ski, particularly comfortable carving, and a treat for riders who want carve their way down the slopes at a good speed. Its slight lack of accessibility means that unfortunately it lost some decimal points. This is an excellent choice though for riders who already have some technical skills (carved turn control) and who want to start some serious carving.
Review: Pros
- Globally good performer
- Can be pushed to higher speeds
- Very good turn/carving performance
- Grip and stability
Review: Cons
- Very carved shape and stiff tail make skid turns slightly less comfortable
- Lacks some accessibility
