Hi there!
As the entrepreneur behind High G Skis LLC, I thought I would take a moment to introduce myself. My name is David and I am thrilled to bring to you what I believe are the world's finest carving skis. High G Skis was borne of my quest to find the most exhilaratingly fun line of carving skis in existence. My vision was to lay down those exquisitely low-to-the-snow pure carving turns with power and with style. I wondered, why were skis not made with the ability to carve like a snowboard? Why is an 8.5 meter sidecut radius on a snowboard considered normal, but practically unheard of when it comes to skis?
I believe the answer lies primarily in public perception. Such a tight sidecut necessitates a much shorter ski than most people will tend to consider -- that is until they click into a pair of Lusti RFC's. There is a fallacy that short skis are not stable. While there may be some truth that a longer ski will be more stable in certain snow conditions or modes of operation -- when skied flat or landing jumps for example -- the truth is that a longer ski is simply going to be less responsive. While sometimes less responsiveness is a good thing, it is not what high performance radikal fun carving is all about. With the exception of skiing in powder and crud, when considering ski length, one should really be thinking sidecut radius. In terms of performance, when a ski is on edge and properly carving, the ski will be stable so long as the ski and binding system are well designed and working together in concert. And yet the vast majority of skiers end up slarving around on that beautifully groomed corduroy rather than truly carving. How many of you out there crave the experience of carving tighter, more aggressive turns, with quicker side to side ski engagement and rebound, yet have that uneasy feeling that perhaps something in your own rig is holding you back? Do you have that yearning to include a truly extraordinary ski in your quiver, yet you can't quite put a finger on what it may be? We at High G Skis are on a mission to change that. With that said, should you wish to experience pure carving exhilaration, then you have got to get on a pair of these Lusti RFC carving skis.
Are you not sure if the Lusti RFC's are your cup of tea, yet you're curious to try them out? I've got you covered. All four lengths are now available at Sierra At Tahoe's demo rental shop for $64 a day. * (I highly encourage you to try before you buy.)
Oh, and by the way, if you are at Sierra At Tahoe and you see that guy in the Orange & Teal Jacket (with the name-tag "David" and High G Skis chest patch) carving fast, tight railroad tracks down the face of Lower Main, Marmot, Upper Powderhorn, or Bashful, well that's me. Once you catch up, be sure to introduce yourself and say hi.
I hope to see you out there on the mountain!
Warm Regards,
Dave Lee,
