Compare ski widths, sidecuts, tip shapes, camber heights and rocker shapes by overlaying skis shapes. Easily compare changes for different length.
Search for skis according to their weight and their surface-to-weight ratio. Easily find light skis for backcountry skiing, or heavier constructions to charge on the down.
Compare the bending stiffness of skis with measurement from our patented testing machine used for world cup ski development.
Compare skis based on torsional stiffness (twist) measurements. This information, only available here, uniquely defines the character of a ski (e.g., precise vs playful).
Our equipment to measure skis is used by top industry designers from major brands. It is highly accurate and easy to use. Our ski fitting service is independent and based on measured data.
We measure a lot of skis! There are about 1500 new skis every year and we try to measure them all. Our comparison tool include 3000+ models in various lengths. Each length is unique.
Attending demos takes a lot of time and access to smaller brands is difficult. Reviews are great, but rarely cover all lengths. Our comparison tool allows you to search for skis and select a few models for detail comparisons. This allow you to discover brands and skis that you might have never considered before.
There are very few bad skis, but finding the right ski for your needs can be a challenge. By using a few specifications, you can quickly select a few skis to compare, research, demo and/or purchase. Finding the right equipment will allow you to have more fun on the slopes.
