Carving skis for slalom and racing on the piste

Carving skis, also known as piste skis, are versatile for various disciplines on the slopes. Some carving skis are highly advanced, while others are more user-friendly. Piste skis are crafted for stability at high speeds but can be difficult to maneuver, making them ideal for advanced and expert skiers. These race skis are also used professionally, such as in the world cup.

The piste ski is a true carving ski

Piste skis are often designed as carving skis with a narrow waist and a wider front, along with a stiff construction to ensure stability. While they are primarily made for compact snow on the slopes, some newer models have slight modifications, making them somewhat easier to use in off-piste conditions. However, only advanced skiers should attempt this, as it can be quite challenging.
