New for 2008 the X5 PRO is the perfect blend of speed and stability. With a stiffer torsional flex and slightly more rocker than the CX the X5 PRO is a world class, short-line slalom performer. Denny has tuned the fore body of the ski for better angle through the wakes. Crisper, more defined bevels at the tip, a full 12” flat spot, aggressive tail rocker and an ultra- lightweight machined core help the 2008 X5 PRO perform even better for the short-line slalom course skier. Stable and incredibly symmetrical on both sides of the course, the X5 is the most predictable short-line slalom design available.
