Manufacturer's remarks
The Elite 11 from Dynastar has been designed for very good skiers that love the groomers and speed. The Elite 11 has the stability and precision of a racing ski and the lightness of a touring ski (1800g). The combination of know-how makes it unique. Its intermediary radius makes it extremely stable at high speeds with excellent grip in turns. Expert riders looking for incredible thrills and challenges will adopt it at once!
