Billed as the ultimate all-mountain machine for expert skiers, the Temptation 88 demands strong technique, power and agility to get the most out of them.

They are designed to handle everything from piste to powder, with the ability to carve smooth turns on groomed slopes and have enough to deal with an epic powder day.

One of our testers found them a challenge. 'Difficult in short turns and I felt like I was fighting them. They're stable and grip well when you lay them over though.'

'Not very lively, but powerful and solid,' was another comment.

One of the features of this ski is the specially designed 'Air Tip', which aids the swing weight of the skis and can make them easier to turn.

The lightweight wood core helps to reduce the effort levels whilst the traditional camber underfoot means they produce a carve turn with excellent grip at all times...

...providing you have the ability to use them.
