Scott The Ski review 2015
PROSKILAB™ reviewers' comments
While The Ski really stood out last year in the All mountain 70/30 category, this year’s ski was outdone in this category by the wider, more distinctively freeride-type skis. It’s still an excellent ski though, especially for intermediate to good skiers who prefer on piste skiing.
Review: Pros
- Good on-piste behaviour
- An easy-to-handle, intuitive and enjoyable ski
- Highly reactive, with fast initiation
- Excellent behaviour in skid turns
- Fair performance off piste
- Excellent handling in powder
Review: Cons
- Notable lack of floatation in powder
- Performance lacks oomph.
