Skiability
A JOYful ski
Glide smoothly from edge to edge with complete ease. EMC technology provides cushioning for turns by eliminating unwanted jolts
Structure
A lightweight PU core that aids turning, ideal for beginners and entry-level riders
BINDINGS
Thanks to its lightweight heel piece, the JOY 9 GW SLR binding allows women and young skiers to ski with almost no effort at all
From DIN 2.5 to 9. GripWalk compatible .
Suitable for ski boots with a sole length between 255 mm and 338 mm.
Sidecuts
117/70/103 in 163 cm
The sidecut corresponds to the mm width of the tip, waist and tail.
The wider the tip, the easier the turn entry.
The narrower the waist ,the quicker the edge switching.
The wider the waist, the more comfortable and stable the ski is in changing snow conditions
The smaller the turn radius, the shorter the ski will turn (short turns)
The larger the turn radius, the wider the ski will turn
Turn radius = 13.3 m for a 163 cm ski
Caring for your skis: before, during and at the end of the season?
Maintenance is essential to keep your skis in good condition! Ideally, it should be done before you put them away in the garage at the end of the season: a good coat of wax before putting them away for the summer makes them last longer.

What is a camber?
On the ground, the points of contact between the ski and the snow are near the tip and tail, while the centre (under the bindings) rises slightly (this is the camber). The longer and higher the camber, the greater the edge grip and more responsive the ski. The lower the camber, the more forgiving the skis and the better the handling.
What is a rocker?
It is the tip and tail that lift off the ground. By recentering the points of contact between the skis and the ground, this shortens the amount of time that the skis touch the snow and improves handling / lift in soft snow. The longer the rocker, the better the handling of the ski.
