The Session is particularly interesting for recreational skiers who want something forgiving and easy to ride, but who don't want to step onto a traditional wide ski that feels difficult to turn once they're up and running.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Session's increased width provides excellent stability and makes starts noticeably easier, particularly at the lower speeds often preferred by recreational skiers. Once you're up, however, it doesn't feel like a conventional wide ski. \u003cstrong\u003eRadar's Grip Rails 2.0\u003c\/strong\u003e are designed to help the ski roll onto edge naturally, grip the water and maintain that edge through the turn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a ski that feels intuitive rather than demanding. It is stable when you need it to be, but still gives you the satisfaction of carving a proper slalom turn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/w04lKYgQNoc?si=lm1ECfSndgoFNiU1\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrip Rails 2.0\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the traditional compromises with wider skis is that, while they are easier to get out of the water, they can be harder to roll onto edge and hold through a turn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRadar addresses this with its \u003cstrong\u003eGrip Rails 2.0\u003c\/strong\u003e design. The angled rails effectively create a pseudo-tunnel underneath the ski, encouraging water flow towards the centre of the ski. This helps the Session roll, grip and hold its edge through the turn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is this combination of an easy-going, forgiving platform with genuine slalom-ski characteristics that makes the Session different from a traditional beginner or wide-body ski.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich Session Size?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Session is available in four sizes, with the correct choice primarily determined by skier weight. If you're between sizes or would like some advice on which option is likely to suit your skiing, \u003cstrong\u003eplease ask\u003c\/strong\u003e.
