Skiing on twintips
Login
But they aren't 'twin tips', the tail just has a little turn up. What are they? B78's? I'd suggest the turned up tail is just to help you slide backwards out of tricky situations. A completely flat ski makes this sorta situation difficult especially when the snow is cut up or a little deeper than usual. There is a reason 'Rossignol Bandit Twip Tip Skis' does not bring any relevant results from Google ;)
Edit: I wish I hadn't sold any skis and my new ones were here so I could do a 'flat tail', 'turned up tail', 'semi twin', 'full twin' picture post :lol:
What are they? ... Are they 'flat tail', 'turned up tail', 'semi twin' or 'full twin'? Don't worry if your not sure Pabs will know! :lol:
I hope you enjoy them! :D

They are more of a semi-twin and aren't really designed for the park or going backwards...

They may not be suited to the park but the whole point of twin tips are so that you can ski backwards...and they go backwards very well.

I seem to recall them being Atomic Sweet Daddy's. I don't know, haven't seen them but I am guessing they will have a flat tail :lol:
