Head Men's Peak 78 SW Skis w/ MOJO 12 BindingsCreated for advanced and expert skiers who want a balanced blend of 50% groomed and 50% untracked in their ski day, the Peak 78 ski is a highly versatile all-mountain performer with innovations to adapt to changing terrain and snow conditions. The Peak 78 features a snappy sandwich construction with Intelligence Technology. That means that Head put these things called Intellifibers at 45-degree angles in front of the ski bindings, so those mechanical impulses created by bouncing around in hard snow turn into electrical energy that stiffens the Intellifibers. When the Intellifibers turn rigid, you feel more control with improved rebound and ski torsional stiffness. The cool thing is that Intellifibers only stiffen the Peak 78 exactly where you need the extra control on the mountain--and not all the way from the summit to the lodge. Another Head innovation is Liquidmetal technology. While just about every ski manufacturer now offers titanium in their high-end skis, Head's Liquidmetal has a molecular structure that returns power at a ratio of 1:1, resulting in an improved ski rebound and improved turn initiation with roughly 29% more power than energy-absorbing titanium. Ski magazines lauded Head's Liquidmetal component in past seasons for the consistent and predictable rebound, but one lesser-known benefit is that the Liquidmetal is actually liquid, so it doesn't break down like solid molecular ski components that wear out over several seasons of hard use. What that means is that you'll probably be skiing on these Peak 78 skis long after everyone else has decided that their conventional all-mountain skis are flat and ready for the ski swap. This ski is paired with the integrated Mojo 12 ski binding featuring release technology from Tyrolia. We think experts will prefer the slightly higher DIN settings on the Mojo 12 over the Head RF 11 bindings, especially when skiing hard and fast in undulating, broken crud conditions. If you're a woman looking for a female-specific version of this amazing all-terrain ski, check out the Head Women's Wild ONE.
