Elan Parabolic SCX - carvingskienes bestefar ⛷️

Mannen min selger etter hardt press sine gamle Elan Parabolic SCX. Skiene som markerte overgangen fra lange tynne slalåmski til carvingski. Kjøpt siste halvdel av 90-tallet.

15 herlige meter svingradius. Skilengde 183 cm. Skiene er i god stand og har vært lagret innendørs.

Salamon 977 bindinger satt opp til støvler størrelse 43.

Noe for den nostalgiske, til «pynt», eller rett og slett for å kjøre på? Sålene trenger litt smøring og kantene sliping.

Bud tas imot med takk ⛷️⛷️

Skiene kan ikke sendes. De kan hentes på Bekkestua eller leveres langs ruta fra Bekkestua - Hemsedal.

Fra Wikipedia:

The SCX, for "SideCut eXtreme" (or "eXperiment"), was an alpine ski introduced by Elan in the winter of 1993/4. Skis before the SCX had almost always used a shape that was slightly curved inward on the sides, typically by 7 millimetres (0.28 in) compared to a straight line running from tip to tail. The SCX was designed with over 22 millimetres (0.87 in) "sidecut", producing a wasp-waisted ski unlike anything on the market.

The SCX proved to dramatically improve turn performance and made it much easier to perform the efficient carve turn. This led to higher speeds in giant slalom, and the ski started winning race after race when it was introduced. It also made skiing easier in general, and revolutionized ski schools, especially in the US where the design first caught on. By 1996 every major ski company was racing to introduce similar designs, and traditional designs were being sold off for pennies on the dollar.

As the first successful "shaped" or "parabolic" ski, the SCX is considered one of the most important advances in the history of the sport.
