Chairlift use
The unlocking button is very easily accessible and its handling is done without any effort.
When the frame is unlocked, just push on your outriggers to rise up. The balance is perfect and allows you loading the chairlift with a great comfort.
The slab of polyethylene in contact with the seat gives you stability and makes easier the chairlift’s off loading.
3 suspension kinematics
Full suspension and configurable between 3 positions, depending on your style and your practice.
Position 1. The frame movement is nearly vertical when the shock absorber get compressed, which is ideal for freeride, technical discipline (SL) or a use in Dualski.
Position 3. The center of gravity moves forward when the shock absorber is compressed. Such a transfer offset the loss of balance due to a carving curve, and recharge the ski tip for improving the grip all along the ski.
Position 2. Intermediaite position, versatile, that will suit most of skiers.
Customization
In addition to the suspension kinematics, other parameters can be adjusted :
– The seating angle can be setted from 30° to 40°, every 2°, to provide you the perfect position.
– In Uniski, the center of gravity can be adjusted on a graduated rail : 70 mm.
– The Dualski offers you the possibility to set the edging angle whenever you wish, from the “Performance” position to the “Carving +” position.
