Important Details
-
Metal Edges: They ensure exceptional control and grip on hard snow, ice, or on traversed slopes. They are essential for safety during backcountry descents.
-
Omnitrack® Base: This scale system (or anti-recoil) is designed to offer reliable thrust on climbs and efficient glide without requiring kick wax.
-
Progressive Sidecut (99-68-84): This shape facilitates turn initiation and improves flotation, making the ski more "playful" and maneuverable than narrower touring skis.
-
Triaxial Construction: It surrounds the wood core to reinforce the ski's torsional rigidity and solidity, while maintaining a reasonable weight.
Usage and Compatibility
This ski is intended for skiers who want to:
-
Venture off-piste and explore woods or untracked terrain.
-
Have control during descents and on varied terrain (powder, soft snow, ice).
-
Cover long distances with good glide efficiency and thrust.
Compatible Bindings
The Madshus Panorama M68 is often mounted with robust bindings designed for backcountry:
-
NNN BC (Backcountry) by Rottefella: Offers good stability and great control, with models like the Rottefella NNN BC Magnum (wide platform).
-
Rottefella Xplore™ System: The new standard for backcountry, offering increased mobility and stability.
-
75mm / 3-Pin: Traditional 3-pin bindings (sometimes with a cable) are also an option for skiers who prefer this system for telemark performance and maximum control.
