Dynastar Speed Omeglass Master SL R22
The Dynastar Speed Omeglass Master SL R22 may not be totally ‘new’ for this winter but we’ve highlighted it as an Editors’ Choice ski for all you merchants of speed who like to live life on the racier side of rapid.
Based on World Cup slalom skis and created by Dynastar’s race technicians, the snappily-named Speed Omeglass Master SL R22 is a high-performance, super-grippy ski that holds an edge like its life depends upon it. Tester Rich put it through its paces in Dynastar’s home of Chamonix and loved the leg burn – “are these skis or rails? There’s just so much grip underfoot!”
As you’d expect from a high-end, race-oriented ski, it performs best when pushed so don’t expect an easy cruiser. Give it the groomer beans however and you’ll be rewarded with superb rebound in return.
Designed to deliver balance, power and precision when travelling at speed, the Speed Omeglass Master SL R22 has a powerful and durable ash wood core, moderate tip rocker for maximum edge control, and full length titanal layers to keep things super stable when you’re driving hard through the turn.
While the Speed Omeglass Master SL R22 takes the majority of its inspiration from competitive race skis, the modern sidecut and shorter radii means you don’t have to be wearing a race suit to get the most out of this speed demon.
Over to Rich for the last word: ‘fast, fun, reactive, and agile, this ski will keep turning all day long.’
Verdict
You bring the legs, and the Speed Omeglass Master SL R22 will do the rest! Price includes bindings.
