Defiance Truflex Ls El 10.0 System Ski + El 9.0 Gw Shift B85 - 2024 Black/Red/Black, 176cm/One Size

Best alternate: Option 4, which is the more exciting option. Pick it when you want a livelier line and the rentals step-up angle. A first morning on a new setup after seasons on rentals goes better when the skis and bindings flex together. The Truflex LS Ski + EL 9. 0 GW Shift Binding package pairs a cap-construction all-mountain ski with a Shift platform that flexes along with it, so the ski's own flex shapes each turn. A 76 millimeter waist keeps edge-to-edge changes quick for frontside carving and light afternoon chop. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"On firm, skied-off groomers late in the day, the camber underfoot kept the edges biting through every turn. The cap construction stayed forgiving whenever my technique got sloppy, so I kept carving instead of backing off. That balance is why I point skiers moving past rentals toward this setup."
