The 2007 the HO Monza has graphics reminiscent of famous most European race cars. Keeping with the race car image this ski is not only fast across the lake but it also changes directions very fast. Some members of the test Team found the this ski to be temperamental and unstable at the apex of the turn. It creates its speed without much physical effort by the skier.  If you are in the right position it not only turns hard but holds on to angle though the wakes very well.  The test Team found fin settings on the Monza were especially critical.

"Holy Cow! It turns quick." Mike Erb

"Most anybody could get on this ski and ride it well." Keith Albritton 

"You can get a lot of angle with this ski." Tyler Scott

"It is a little squirrelly although I can make up time on it." Eric Lee
