Description
The HEAD Worldcup SL is a single-piece, streamlined, ultra-high-performance racing pole, designed to meet the demands of slalom skiers and competitors looking to maximize their speed between gates.
Key Features
-
Construction:
-
Material: It is made of Aluminum 7075 (a light and highly resistant aluminum alloy, often called "Aerospace" aluminum), which ensures an excellent strength/weight ratio.
-
Swing Weight: Its construction aims to offer a fast swing weight (or low inertia), essential for quick, precise arm movements and rapid pole plants in Slalom.
-
-
Grip and Strap:
-
Grip: It is equipped with a Rubber Racing Grip (often called Soft Downhill) designed for a firm, comfortable, and non-slip hold, even in intense racing conditions.
-
Strap: It integrates a Velcro Racing Strap that allows for precise and quick adjustment around the wrist or glove, ensuring the pole remains perfectly connected to the skier.
-
-
Tip and Basket:
-
Tip: The tip is made of Tungsten Carbide, an extremely hard and durable material that ensures aggressive and explosive grip, particularly for fast starts and effective pole planting on hard or icy snow.
-
Basket: The pole has a Mini-Racing Basket, small in diameter, optimized for Slalom. It minimizes drag and reduces the risk of snagging without hindering penetration in compact snow.
