AMC 73 @ approx 165 cm Written by Ski Review Guest on 2007-02-18 01:58:29
Tried these skis as well as the Z3, Metron 7 and X-Wing 10s. All in the 165 cm length range. Ski conditions were variable, powder, crud and ice in the wind blown areas. The skis were okay - fairly manoverable except on the ice where they were poor at holding an edge but better than the Z3. Rating 3rd of the 4 skis tried. I was disappointed as these were my first choice on paper. |

nice all round ski for groomers and not bad in crud and powder ( not deep stuff) - smooth but not really very dynamic and don't hold the edge very well on hard pack compared to say the Fischer Progressor |

USED THEM FOR 1 1/2 SEASONS. GOOD FOR AN INTERMEDIATE SKIER, LIGHT SKI FOR EASY MANEUVERABILITY. SKI IS MORE OF A CARVING SKI, YOU CAN ALWAYS FEEL IT WANTING TO GO ON ITS SIDE. NOT TOO STABLE AT HIGH SPEEDS, SKIS WILL CHATTER. OVERALL A FUN SKI TO MESS AROUND WITH AND REFINE YOUR TECHNIQUE, JUST DON'T USE THEM ON ICE |

I skied these hard for a week in Austria Jan 08 and was impressed, effortless turning and great edge hold (I'm heavy though). I stuck some icy mogulled steep blacks confidently. In rotten deep snow they struggled. I am old enough to remember skiing Dynastar Course 205's so any of these short fatties are a godsend in my humble opinion! |
