Factory Blemish Endurance 88

After six days on the 88's, 100,000' vertical in everything except powder (sad face), I realized I'd gone all week and not had a single argument with the skis. They always went where I wanted, and never tried to take off on their own, not even when I was tired. Early on the first day I ran into some bumps by surprise--normally I'd bail, but after a couple of turns I realized I was having fun and stayed. These skis turn on a dime and are still very stable at speed. The more I skied, the more I liked them. Well worth the investment!

I have only used these in the east so far and they perform nicely in all conditions. they can be a bit chattery at speed in runout but that's not a big deal when considering all the positives. I'll be taking them west to find some powder next week and am expecting excellent results. Best skis I have owned!

needed to get them de-tuned but once I did, they are so so so fun!! Me legs are not as sore after skiing on them.

These great all around ski. The dampening from the vibe stop is different then other skis with similar technology. There is definitely less “chatter”. The skis are pretty quick edge to edge and a great east coast daily driver.

I was an advanced intermediate until an injury 20 years ago.

Just now on the slopes first time since.

I’m 79 years old now but sill in great shape.

In my heyday, my skis had a

72mm waist! 88mm is taking some getting used to!

I like fast turns. The larger ski is just going to take some “getting used to”. Not really fair to judge the Renoun at this point…but I LOVE the edge control…they really bite.

I have been skiing on wider skies the last several years. Decided to pick up a pair of narrower all mountain skies for groomer and light powder days as an alternative. These skies do the trick! Also easier on my aging knees. These skies absorb a lot of vibration and are very easy to ski. Highly recommend these skies for your quiver.

Skied one day so far. Firm and fast snow, they ski great.

These skis rock! They carve down groomers, chug through crud, eat up chowder and float in powder. Truly a versatile ski. At high speed on corduroy, they turn quickly and pop at the end. In less than groomed conditions, they plow right through with no sense that they will submarine. Whatever surface I am on, they feel trustworthy; I know they will do whatever I ask of them. These are likely the best skis I have been on in my 50+ years of skiing. Well done, Renoun!
