These skis are AMAZING! Perfect for all mountain skiing, offpiste, tricks- you name it they'll do it BUT...
Not so good to use when teaching little people. As I'll be teaching three to sixteen year olds it's most probable that they'll be a few accidents. I'd hate for the stunning design of the ski to be spoilt whilst working and so have decided to invest in a more durable ski.
There are two pairs of skis in contention for the job however my bank balance will only allow for one.
Both sets are men's skis. The reason for this is mainly that they are stronger, and more powerful. When using them everyday I would recommend that experienced women skiers consider switching to a men's ski. The difference is considerable (I had a spin on my brother's Salomon Lord's a while ago) and wouldn't consider buying another pair of women's skis other than for the more aesthetically pleasing design.
I find the Rossignol skiis more attractive and find it unusual that Dynastar opted for a vintage, less appealing design on the ski. More recently they have released a similar design in a different colour scheme and the ski is much more appealing to the eye.
But in truth I need to test these out on snow. A few sessions on a dry slope should give me an idea as to which will be more practical.
Results to follow...
