Carving Skis & Piste Skis

Carving Skis for Slalom and Racing on the Piste

Piste skis, also referred to as carving skis, are suitable for most disciplines on the piste. Some of these skis are designed with advanced features, while others offer ease of use. Although primarily focused on providing stability at high speeds, piste skis can be tricky to navigate. Consequently, they are ideal for expert and advanced skiers. These racing skis are utilised professionally, such as in world cup competitions.

Piste Skis: The Essence of Carving

A piste ski typically resembles a carving ski with its narrow waist and broader tip, along with a solid build to ensure stability. While designed for the slopes' compact snow, some newer models feature modifications that enhance their usability in off-piste conditions. However, this remains a challenge and should only be attempted by advanced skiers.
