One of the highest reviewed front side skis of all time ski magazine ski of the yr, testers choice, gold medal gear, etc. As a former ski shop employee, I can ski on anything I want, this is my go to ski unless Im in +8 powder. Bought this particular pair as a back-up to my current pair, butthey are still going strong and could use the cash for the holidays. All sales final, thanks for looking! More info on the ski.
Of the many online reviews of the ski.. With the heart of a race ski and the width of a side-stash basher the i. Supershape Rally is a versatile, all-round recreational carver for railing at speed on and off piste. It has been empowered with centered Graphene, making the ski lighter with superior power, control and balance. While our hand-built Worldcup Construction guarantees perfect hold and carve-ability, with energy enhancing KERS and the Rocker, Radius and Rebound of ERA 3.0 S.
In short it is an all-conditions carver that delivers ultimate fun. Head iSupershape skis just keep getting better and better. Supershape Rally is the middle width member of the i.
Supershape family, positioned exactly between the Magnum and Titan with a 76mm waist width. Just like its siblings, it is a very powerful and precise front-side carving machine, with the same feel on the snow as well. The Rally has the middle turning radius of the three, and is intended to be the most versatile turner of the three brothers. Whatever turn shape you want, Rally can give you.Long radius at high speed, short radius down the fall line, the ski just does it for you. Just like its other i. Supershape brothers, it is simply a SUPER FUN, high speed machine! After a total overhaul in 2018, the Rally got a new sidecut shape with a tighter turn radius.
With its 76mm waist and 13.7m sidecut radius, the Rally sits right in the middle of the iSupershape group. The new construction incorporates Head's proprietary Graphene material, a super strong graphite matrix that is only 1 atom thick. It is many times stronger than steel and brings an even better feel and higher performance to this ski.
Because Graphene adds a tremendous amount of strength without taking up any space or adding any weight, applying it to the metal components in the ski allows the metal be thinner, and therefore lighter, with no decrease in strength or effectiveness. Also, more of the mass is shifted from the center of the ski to the tips and tails, resulting in improved stability at speed, and easier initiation at the beginning of the turn. Supershapes have always been good, but the new shapes and construction have taken them to another dimension. Era 3.0 features found in all i.SuperShape skis incorporates three features, rockered tip, a unique sidecut radius, and intelligent rebound. SuperShape series skis with ERA 3.0s are now rockered in the front 10% of the ski with traditional camber in the remaining 90%.
This rockered profile in the tip allows the ski to be made VERY stiff torsionally, which gives incredible edge hold, while the small amount of tip rocker makes the ski initiate turns effortlessly. The new shape incorporates a tighter radius in the tip and more taper (narrower tail than tip) to assist in making the ski incredibly easy to turn, able to make a variety of turn shapes, and more forgiving and user friendly in tough, cruddy snow conditions. Intelli-rise rebound places Head's Intelli-fibers in the tip of the ski to silence any vibration or flap in the new rockered tip. Only Head offers skis with KERS (Kinetic Energy Recovery System), an electronic force recovery and management system originally developed for Formula 1 race cars. Head's adaptation of KERS into snow skis is an evolution of their Intelligence Technology, which uses vibration energy to adjust flex and/or torsional stiffness based on the amount of vibration traveling through the ski as it moves over the snow. But, unlike Intelligence used in other Head models, KERS incorporates a Chip into the tail of the ski, the purpose of which is to store energy and control its release at the exact moment when power is requested by the built in Sensor. KERS works like this; (1) Kinetic energy (vibration) is converted to electrical energy which is stored in the Chip during the arc of the turn. (2) When released by the Sensor, this electrical energy is released into Piezo Electric Fibers built into the core at the ski's tail, (3) immediately increasing rebound for maximum rebound out of the turn. This exclusive Intelligence technology is found only in Head skis, and KERS is found only in Head iSupershape and Worldcup Race models. This system consists 100% of solid state electronic parts, there are no moving parts and nothing to wear out or break. Supershapes are very popular skis for good skiers, instructors and coaches because of their ability to go fast AND slow thanks to the flex adapting properties of Intelligence technology. Intelligence changes the flex in certain areas of the ski, according to how much vibration is being generated. So, at slow speeds the ski is very supple and forgiving, while at high speed it is solid and powerful.Head's World Cup and iSupershape skis are the most technologically advanced snow sliding tools in the world. There is a reason why the i. Supershapes consistently place in the top 2-3 models in the hard snow/frontside/carving category of virtually every ski test Head enters them in, and why so many of the world's most elite skiing athletes use Head products...
