The ski's handling characteristics are also, as with any other ski, dependent on its radius. Allmountain skis are available with different radii, from around 10 to 20 meters. Generally, especially the wider skis also have a larger radius, as they are less tailored.

ROCKER AND CAMBER CONSTRUCTION OF THE ALLMOUNTAIN SKI

Many of our all-mountain skis with bindings are equipped with rocker constructions. Either with a so-called Tip-Rocker at the front shovel or with a Tip & Tail Rocker, i.e. rockered at the front and back. Rockers make it easier to turn around the ski and thus enable easier turn initiation. This makes skiing easier both on and off piste. The next step up from the tip or front rocker is the tip and tail rocker, which is slightly bent up at the front and back.

However, a good number of all-mountain skis with bindings also come with the classic construction without rocker: the full camber construction. The classic camber has its strengths above all on the piste. When the ski has a positive camber, the contact points on an unloaded ski are at the shovel and the tail of the ski. This means that there is always a distance to the snow under the binding. As soon as pressure is applied to the ski, the ski is under tension and gains continuous edge contact. This is particularly advantageous at high speeds and in tougher conditions.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT ALL-MOUNTAIN SKI

Which all-mountain ski is the right one for you depends largely on your skiing ability and style, as well as the intended area of use. Those who want to use their skis regularly on the slopes, step on the gas and only occasionally launch into the backcountry are well advised to go with a narrower all-mountain ski. Conversely, those who are more in the freeride area should rather reach for a wider all-mountain ski.
