Head Supershape - precise carving power for every radius

Head Supershape stands for uncompromising edge grip, rich feedback and the choice between five clearly separated characters. If you are sporty on the slopes and are looking for a ski with racing DNA that is still suitable for everyday use, you will quickly find the right Supershape setup for your style at XSPO.

The Supershape Story

The Supershape line has been the reference for sporty piste carving for years. With the e Supershape generation, the series got EMC on board, Head's electronic damping system that converts vibrations into electrical energy and thus reduces unwanted oscillations. Graphene and the Worldcup Sandwich Cap Construction are added in current models, sometimes supplemented by Crossforce Carbon under the binding for smoother running.

Models, widths and technology at a glance

e Original66 mmVery slope-oriented, short to medium radius
e Speed68 mmHard slopes, long radii and high speed
e Magnum72 mmsporty all-round on the piste, wider sweet spot
e Rallyapprox. 78 mmwide carving line with reserves in softer snow
e Titaniumapprox. 84 mmMaximum slope width in the series, very stable

EMC explains in one sentence: Piezo ceramic plates and conductive tracks convert oscillation energy into electrical energy and thus filter out disturbing vibrations for smoother running and more edge grip.

The way to the right Head Supershape

  1. Define the focus of use: Do you love hard, fast slopes and long turns? Then go for e Speed or e Original. If you want a larger sweet spot for changing slopes, e Magnum is the right choice. For more shovel contact and reserve in softer snow, e Rally and e Titan are ideal.
  2. Use width as a lever: 66 to 72 mm under the binding provide maximum edge grip and fast edge changes, 78 to 84 mm provide additional stability and composure on rough slopes.
  3. Check damping and design: EMC is on board as standard. Graphene saves weight with high torsional rigidity, the Worldcup Sandwich Cap ensures pressure stability on the edge.
  4. Choose your binding package: Many Supershape Sets come with PRD 12 GW or Protector PR 13 GW, both of which offer solid transmission and grip on the edge.
  5. Adjust length and radius: Sporty short for maneuverable short turns, body-hugging medium length for versatile carving, longer for smooth running at speed. The radii remain typical for the model, the width determines the feel.

XSPO stands for a diverse range of sporty piste skis and a structured selection according to skiing style and technical features. So you can find the Head Supershape that suits you functionally without having to search for long.

Frequently asked questions about Head Supershape

  • Which Head Supershape models are available and how do they differ?
    There are e Original 66 mm, e Speed 68 mm, e Magnum 72 mm, e Rally approx. 78 mm and e Titan approx. 84 mm. Narrow means maximum edge grip, wider means more stability and versatility.
  • What does EMC do for Head Supershape?
    EMC converts vibrations into electrical energy using piezo ceramics and conductor paths, thereby damping disturbing vibrations for smoother running.
  • Is Head Supershape also suitable for soft or rutted slopes?
    e Rally and e Titan offer additional stability in softer or rutted snow thanks to their wider center width.
  • Which Head Supershape is the most maneuverable carver for short radii?
    e Original and e Speed are the piste-focused, narrow options for quick edge changes and precise short to medium radii.
  • What is the construction of the Head Supershape?
    Worldcup Sandwich Cap with Graphene, UHM C Base and Speed Rocker is typical for the series.
  • Are there any changes to current vintages?
    Newer models have received Crossforce Carbon under the binding and fine-tuning to the shape and shovel, EMC remains series-wide.
  • Which bindings are common with Head Supershape?
    Common packages are PRD 12 GW or Protector PR 13 GW depending on the Set.
