>> To the Ski Review Men's Touring Skis 2 for the season 2021/2022
Ideal off-piste ascents and descents
To explore the terrain off the beaten track, you'll need avalanche equipment and the right material under your feet. This is where the Men's touring skis of category 2 come into play.
With widths ranging between 87 and 95 millimeters, the skis form resembles that of classic all round models. They are much lighter, however, making long uphill routes much easier. The models tested in the Innerkrems not only convinced us with their ascent characteristics, they also showed their quality during the way back down.
