Advantages: A amazing ski to many adavntages.A perfect ski for any ability. Disadvantages: NONE
...Well I bought these ski's at Snow and Rock in Sheffield and when I first used them in the half pipe (carving,steeps,new school,race there good for all) they were really responsive and the stiffness add's to the excellent qualities. Then I took them to Val Thoren at Easter and one cruisy blue's and reds they were so responive and had such a great turn radius and on black runs and off piste they are so agile. The price is perfect I got mine for £200 and put some off my own bindings on. They are a wonderful ski for intermediates, and experts alike. Carving,speed,off piste,crusing and new school there great. Definatly worth considering for this sesaon.A must buy for any improving skiiers.

Advantages: supurb allrounder Disadvantages: not for the freestylers
...the board, perhaps I’d better make clear the viewpoint from which I’m reviewing this product. I’ve been boarding for two years now. I’m 6 foot, and 13 stone. As far as my skill level goes, I’m still a relative beginner. No problems on the slopes or off piste, however, tricks in excess of the 180 and basic grabs usually result in me on my bum, board up, snow everywhere…
How she looks…
The top of the board is minimalist, mine being a grey/green colour with two grey parabolic stripes running from end to end. That’s it. On the underside however is emblazoned an intensely detailed drawing of a Queen upon a throne that towers from one end of the board to another. Its style is reminiscent of something you’d see on the front of a fantasy novel.
How she’s composed…
The board is made...

Advantages: Ease of turning, handling, style, following. Disadvantages: None I can think of.
...I go to Sandown ski club ever week, and I always try to get the Salomon X-Screams. They are incredibly easy to turn, have a nice carving action, and are probably one of the best skis around. They have a huge free-ride following, and are used by beginners and experts alike. They are the skis by which all others are judged. The newer X-screams have the Prolink arms 'to guarantee ski/snow contact'. Wether it actually works is another matter... but it sounds and looks cool!
So basically, these skis will suit anyone, especially those who are looking to improve their turning and confidence, and want to learn how to carve easily.
Excellent skis!...

I love my Dyson, I have done since the day I bought it. BUT it does have a downside - with three fluffy cats running about the house a fair bit of cat fur gets deposited and my Dyson was not great at getting the stair carpet clean. The tools that come more
