Own the groomers with confidence and ease—meet the HEAD Shape e‑V8 Performance Ski. Crafted for frontside enthusiasts, its agile 75 mm waist and ERA 3.0 tip rocker create effortless turn initiation, while EMC vibration damping and carbon-reinforced woodcore deliver smooth, controlled arcs all day long.
