What Stereo says about the Piste V3
“No other ski better exemplifies Norwegian ski heritage. Incredibly crisp, clean, and lively on edge, while maintaining composure and versatility off-piste, the Piste V3 is the tool that every accomplished skier gravitates towards day-in and day-out.”
Flex Pattern
Here’s how we’d characterize the flex pattern of the Piste V3:
Tips: 7
Shovels: 7-7.5
In Front of Toe Piece: 8-10
Underfoot: 10
Behind the Heel Piece: 10-8
Tails: 7.5-6.5
Interestingly, the tail is actually a bit softer than the tip of the ski – something we don’t often see on a directional, carving-oriented ski like this.
