Rippin' Rider Review: Dynastar Team Omeglass Ski, Lange L10 Team Boots, and Look Bindings
Reviewed by Katarina, age 10, from Angel Fire, New Mexico
Functionality of the product:
Skis are quick from edge to edge and run fast. Boots are particularly comfortable....a good feature in a race boot. Katarina is particularly happy with the 4-buckle system. It makes them more adjustable.
Improvements:
We can't see how you could improve on any of the equipment. As said, the 4-buckle system works particularly well.
Durability:
Very solid ... and very durable.
Use:
Katarina has skied at a number of Colorado and New Mexico resorts this season. She
has had comments on the boot, binding, ski combo. Other competitors her age remark how "cool" they look. They love the graphics. Kat is a better skier anyway but the skis have meant a difference in her performance on the slalom course. She finds them easy to ski so she can focus on aggressiveness.
Katarina is VERY particular when it comes to boot fit. These are the best boots she has ever had. She has not had a complaint.
