Head Peak 78
$700.00
Released January, 2009
The Pros:Versatile - suitable for use on both groomed snow and deep powder. Designed for a wider range of skiers when compared to the original. Very different from the 2010 version - a substantial upgrade.
The Cons:Many of the features benefit advanced skiers only. Soft construction - not for everyone.
The Peak 78 is an all-mountain men's ski from Head's All Mountain Freeride lineup. The ski is a step up from the Peak 76 since it features Head's Intelligence technology which utilizes Intellifibers to adapt the stiffness of the ski to the rider and riding conditions.
