<h3>XW Lab Ski (http://www.tetongravity.com/proshop/xwlabski_SAL1407.html)</h3><p><em>Bust out the Salomon XW Lab Skis when you finally get the nerve to book that Alaska heli-skiing trip or sign up for the local freeride comp.</em></p><p><strong>Cody Townsend Review:</strong><br />
This ski is the ski I've been riding in big <br />
mountain comps for the past three years. <br />
It was originally designed by Kaj <br />
Zackrisson and was designed specifically <br />
to go really really fast and stomp <br />
humongous airs (which is how Kaj skis). <br />
For the first two years of the existence of <br />
this ski, it was undefeated in any big <br />
mountain competition. What that means <br />
is that every comp that Kaj or I entered <br />
for two years straight was either won by <br />
him or I on the XW Lab. And when we <br />
were competing together either I won<br />
and Kaj got second or Kaj won and I got <br />
second. It was a pretty phenomenal run <br />
and attested to how incredibly amazing <br />
these skis are at flat out charging. It'll be <br />
hard to find a pair of these skis because <br />
they're made in such limited quantities but <br />
if you want to win some comps or go <br />
faster and bigger than you've ever gone <br />
before, I'd suggest you pick up these <br />
sticks.
