What Head says about the Supershape e-Titan
“The Supershape e-Titan might just be the ideal western carving ski. The widest of the family, it looms large like its name implies. At 84mm wide under foot, it’s the widest of the Supershape family and features HEAD’s new EMC technology, the only electronic dampening system on the market, which reduces vibrations and increases stability for an overall smoother ride. Thanks to HEAD’s Graphene technology, the e-Rally features optimized weight distribution for perfect balance and control. Its new tip shape allows skiers to vary their turn shape at will. Super turns, super versatile, Supershape.”
Flex Pattern
Here’s how we’d characterize the flex pattern of the SuperShape e-Titan:
Tips: 9-9.5
Shovels: 9.5
In Front of Toe Piece: 9.5-10
Underfoot: 10
Behind the Heel Piece: 10-9.5
Tails: 9.5
In short, hand-flexing any part of the SuperShape e-Titan is quite difficult.
Stay Tuned…
We received the Head Supershape e-Titan & e-Rally this Spring and will be spending more time skiing them this Fall. Keep an eye out for updates, and let us know of any questions you have.
I own and regularly ski the OG version of the Titan, with an 80 mm waist and a bit more exaggerated shape, so color me intrigued about the latest version.
No idea how stiff they are — I suck at hand flexing — but they sure are a blast, the way they PULL you across the fall line into a turn.
