Theres a lot of competition around this waist width but the all-new enforcer 88 easily claims a position of its own. A slimmed down waist compared to the wider enforcers means that hard snow performance is improved, which is especially noticeable zipping from edge to edge on the groomers. The elongated nose is where this ski differs from others, as they clearly keep their freeride influence and provide impressive handling in soft and cruddy snow. The shortened contact length increases ease of use in a variety of conditions.Testers comments: Simon (Fort William) Started in soft chop, skied through fresh powder then onto fresh groomed piste. The rocker, construction and profile make it very capable and adaptable for any snow.
