Head Worldcup iSL 2008

Head, Worldcup, iSL, 2008

The ISl's are a slightly detuned version of a full-on race slalom ski- so great for advanced and expert skiers with no great desire to only shred gates. They are a great all-terrain slalom ski for the advanced to expert. If you have never skied on a pair of slalom skis before then they will probably take your breath away with their level of control- it is like trying to carve butter with a rolling pin and then switching to a heated razor blade. You surgically carve your route downwards, arcing and having a truly exhilarating time whilst the skis surge onwards gripping tenaciously.

For the advanced skier looking to improve their on-piste performance or the expert wanting a tamer more manageable pair of friends than a pair of racing thoroughbreds the iSL's will provide heaps of fun, excitement and versatility for the accurate skier.
Highly recommended.

The manufacturer says this about the Head, World cup, iSL, 2008:

Still the benchmark for agility and edge-hold for non-race orientated skiers. So quick in turns, you won't even remember you made one. Forgiving enough for intermediate skiers.
