SPEEDMACHINE MACH 1 £380

The easier way to go fast. Long turns on the groomers at all but bonkers speeds were a blast aboard these, and the entry fee is very reasonable. You'll miss the outright grip of a race-bred ski, but you won't miss being chucked off the back if you end up sitting too far back. A sound progression ski for anyone looking to get to grips with piste technique.
