VOLKI TIGERSHARK 10

Volki Tigershark 10 Power Foot Switch

This article is a review on the Volki Tigershark 10 power foot switch skis and will include important information about them –including its usability and dimensions.


If you’re looking for a ski model that will raise the bar, Volki Tigershark 10 skis are just for you. These skis are for those who enjoying skiing fast on moderate to light snow. The foot switch is the newest in ski technology. All one has to do is turn the knob on the skis and you can adjust the type of ride you desire.


Note the more looser the knob is, the faster the ride and the tighter the knob, the smoother the ride. Personally, I done recommend riding with loose knobs to novice skiers, as they will have a hard time controlling the balance and the speed of the skis. However, for intermediate and expert skiers, this should be ok.


The great part about these skis is as the terrain changes, so can how you ski. The skis come in different sizes: the 10-foot and the 12-foot skis and the dimensions for each skis (sixe/radius) are: 161/12.9, 168/14.3, 175/15.8, and182/17.3.


The sidecut for the Tigershark 10 model is 121-73-105. So, if you like to change the pace of your skis, during your ride, you should choose the Tigershark 10 model

ATOMIC DRIVE 11

Atomic Drive 11

Remember when skiing was thought off as a dangerous sport when you just glide through piles of snow using a pair of thin planks of wood and pointy sticks? It was then, but now, with the Atomic Drive 11. That issue has been put to rest…for good.
The Atomic Drive 11 brings out a new edge to the ski equipments in the market. Following the empty break left by another great series, the SX series, the Atomic Drive 11 glides through snow with grace as it did with certain few bumps on slopes. The 11 becomes even more popular with serious athletes out there as it gives precision in every twist and turn.


Speed is valuable when skiing becomes a sport and the Atomic Drive 11 does not lack on that side. The Atomic Drive 11 consists of ultra-light carbon with aluminum stabilizer that offers outstanding control over gliding under the ice. With its lightweight, the Atomic Drive 11 is easy on the feet as it is easy in control and still feels tight and secure as skiers try to bring it up to speed and aggressiveness.


In skiing, safety and control is the first step to making it out there. The Atomic Drive 11 is one sure way of achieving those points under a price that is worth saying, “This is going to be one hell of a drive.”
