I like the iSL Chip, it was my ski the last two seasons, we sell it and I think it fills an important nitch for the transition skier. It also lasts forever. It is an excellent ski for the skier who can hold on ice, wants to ski bumps, but may not want a race design product to man handle every day. It is very forgiving, yet it holds up under tough conditions.
I am a Super Supporter of the Super Shape. It is a race ski with an all mountain carving side cut.
I don?t know how Head does it, but they come up with the darndest skis, skis that none of the other companies have. I ski the Super Shape in everything. I skied it in forty centimeters of powder last May in Hintertux, Austria, I skied icy bumps in Fernie, BC and Loveland (with SCSA), and I skied slalom at Mt Hood on hard ice.
Did the ski ever let me down, No? Did I ever think to myself, man I could use my World Cup SL, RD skis right now, No!
I love that ski. I will be skiing it all season unless I go to Wiegele?s Heli Ski or we get a real Rocky Mt. Dump. That?s when the iM**88s** comes out.
