Endurance 88

I found them to be responsive and absorbed the rumbles nicely.

Glad I chose them.

Even with the horrible season my Endurance 88 skied great and my wife fell in love with her Earhart 88s

Great in powder, great on hard pack and all sorts of junk

Easy ski to turn at any speed, carves easily and handles speed at 170cms. Love them

The ski is easy to work and responds well. The weight of the ski and the feedback is not indicative of a powerful ski, especially for stronger skiers.

I really love my endurance 88 skis. Also the deal on the bindings was great. Renoun honored a promotion of theirs and the pivot bindings I got are a perfect match.

Makes me a better skier...inspires confidence with makes all the difference!

The variable stiffness technology in my Endurance 88s is the most significant technology advancement I have personally experienced in ski technology since the introduction of “shaped” skis.

Coming from robust Volkl Mantra M5s that make you work, the Endurance 88 took a little getting used to. After 5 days on the skis, I've come to love the performance of the Endurance 88s on the front-side slopes of the eastern ski areas I frequent. The Endurance 88s carve very well, with a reasonably tight turning radius when you want short turns. They are smooth as silk on the longer arc turns. The skis hold the ice and hard pack exceptionally well, providing a nice, stable descent throughout the mountain. The Endurance are a nice change in the bumps - easier and more forgiving than what I'm used to. They make the bump runs more fun than ever. They're also nice in the trees, for the few tree runs I would tend to do. I like the lighter weight of the Endurance skis, which help keep me on the mountain for longer days. If your ski days are 70% front-side, these are outstanding skis to have. As an added bonus, the Endurance 88s performed very well in a recent light powder morning at Killington - they cruised and floated well through the morning's bonus dump. Of course the 98s would have been better, but the 88s did the trick. My only criticism is their performance in crud, where they tend to get chattery - at least more so than my old Mantras. This is not a deal breaker by any means - just an adjustment. All in all, I'm very happy with my new Endurance 88s and can't wait to get out on them again.
