The SS is the third generation of the ground breaking O’Brien Sixam skis. This ski is very fast and comfortable right out of the box. By maintaining consistent water speed and offering smooth turns on both sides the SS simply puts the skier at ease. New School or Old School technique, the SS offers the skier a great deal of latitude. With aggressive New School technique the SS displays additional ultra shortline capabilities but does not noticeably penalize less technical or Old School skiers. Regardless of skiing style the SS delivers exceptional width. As with most skis the SS carves a tighter arc with more weight on the front of the ski but the SS is less critical then most. As opposed to a hard and fast finish to the turn the SS turns more progressively and continues to increase angle all the way to the wakes. If you are looking for a ski to offer forgiveness when you are in trouble there is no better ski then the SS. The SS is not only fast but its specialty is turning nice arcs and finishing with a tight line. This ski turns better than any ski I’ve ever been on. The SS explodes off the second wake and carries a ton of speed away from the centerline of the boat path Brad Beach  Some skis should come with instructions like “ride me center/forward” or “ride me center/back”, the Sixam SS should just have top graphics that read “LET'S JUST GO SKIING”. It is fast, responsive, predictable, and doesn’t punish a skier that has not embraced the latest techniques Bill Barton The Sixam SS has a solid, predictable feel from the get-go. I think skiers with a variety of styles will feel comfortable on this ski – but it shines with a neutral to forward stance. The ski will cast out wide and finish with consistent angle on both sides. The turns feel symmetrical and solid under foot. Stephanie Stange |
