2023 HEAD Shape e-V8 Skis 170cm w/Protector 11 Bindings

Used HEAD Shape e-V8 Skis. Only used about 6 days!!! These are awesome skis. I am only selling since I am a little larger for this size and progressing more to the advanced levels and need a ski with metal in it. This ski is amazing for a progressing intermediate, OR a light advanced-expert. It carves super easy (75mm underfoot so turns extremely well). I loved using this ski as it taught me a lot and I would keep it but alas I'm a little too big for it. These skis have the (Tyrolia) protector bindings which are IMO going to be the new standard for knee safety. They release laterally which other bindings DO. NOT do, as well upward. Both toe and heel do this, so you get 180 degrees of releasability on both heel and toe which makes for a high margin of safety. From SkiEssentials.com The Head Shape E-V8 has all of the personality of its older sibling but it’s narrower design for those skiers who live on groomed runs. The Shape story continues with the E-V8 and this thing likes to live on groomed runs as the construction delivers quickness edge to edge and smooth predictability. The Lightweight Wood Core and layer of Graphene work hand in hand that brings a lightweight foundation and powerful precision that results in effortless maneuverability with generated power when you want it. Ceramic materials are at the forefront of EMC technology for the best vibration dampening that converts kinetic energy to electric energy that results in a smooth and quiet trip from top to bottom. An Allride Rocker adds a good amount of camber with some rocker for quicker edge engagement to the surface of the snow without locking you in for effortless exits out of carves. Offered with the Protector PR 11 GW Bindings, the Head Shape E-V8 is a must have for any advanced level skier.
