On The Slopes / In Use

The Supershape Magnum remains one of the most refined and rewarding piste skis on the market. The combination of Worldcup construction and Crossforce Carbon gives the ski an agile yet powerful feel, gripping firmly through arcs while delivering confidence on steeper or icier terrain.
