The sidecut corresponds to the width in mm of the tip, runner and tail.
The wider the tip, the easier the ski enters the turn.
The narrower the runner, the faster the transition from edge to edge.
The wider the runner, the more comfortable and stable the ski is in snow changes
Radius = 16 m in 170 cm
As for the curve radius, the smaller it is, the shorter the ski will turn (small turn)
The larger the curve radius, the more the ski will turn in large turns.
What is a camber?
When a ski is placed on the ground, the points of contact between the ski and the snow are located near the tip and tail, while the center of the ski (under the bindings) rises slightly. This is camber. The longer and higher the camber, the more grippy and responsive the ski. The lower the camber, the more forgiving and maneuverable the ski.
What is a rocker?
On a rocker ski, the tip and sometimes the tail lift off the ground earlier than on a cambered ski, shifting the contact points towards the center of the ski. The ski's surface in contact with the snow is shortened, offering maneuverability and lift in soft snow. With the angled rocker, you gain edge length for more grip on hard snow. The longer the rocker, the more maneuverable your ski.
