NEW! Head's Peak range stays almost conventional, right to the point near the tip of the ski where there's a big chunk missing. It's called Flowflex and it's supposed to work like tip rocker, letting the front of the ski lift when under pressure. We were worried it was going to turn one of our benchmark strong all-mountain/freeriders into a flappy-tipped horror, but Head seem to have worked that one out and the ski still bites into turns and holds well through the long smooth arcs it gravitates towards.
