According to the inter web, this is what the French Montagnes Magazine said about the Hagan Boost 94: (excerpts, click the link below to read the entire review in French)The Big Surprise of this Seasonexcellent stability even at high speedsA model that is not unlike the behaviour of the Salomon Explore 95 but with greater rigidity.This ski becomes our favourite of this rangeslips very clearly in the first place of these tests.enormous carbon-filled shovel erases all the roughness of the terrainunparalleled driving comfort in deep or trafficked snowturns are easy to makeRead more here.DescriptionSpecsTechnical FeaturesSkinsHAGAN Boost Series SkisFirst Lines, Powder and Steep Slopes: The new HAGAN BOOST skis are light enough for long tours, with 94mm and 99mm waist widths, but are by no means oversized. Tip rockers up to 410 mm provide these off-piste rockets plenty of float for high speed turns.The Boost skis are built with 3D "diminishing rib" profiles - a raised central ridge that tapers out towards the ski's edge for a reduction in swing weight. The rib is taller and narrower near the bindings, progressively widening while getting shallower near the tip and tail. The rib shape keeps the skis stiffer mid-foot while absorbing impact without chatter. Tip and tail rocker help float over soft snow and cut through chop, while camber underfoot and carbon stringers provide stability and stiffness, ensuring they rip the hardback. From flotation devices to powerful chargers, welcome to the most playful line of powder skis on the market.The BOOST 94 is our second widest ski. This very sporty free tour ski unfolds its full potential at high speeds and delivers top-class performance. The tour rocker and wide shovel promise considerable lift in deep snow. It fits into the concept of an adventurous free tour ski - ready at any time to discover hidden powder spots. The Boost 94 is coupled with a lightweight paulownia core and a carbon backbone to keep it nimble while ensuring steadiness for burly descents. The BOOST 94 is light enough for long tours while its 94 mm waist and 127 mm shovel provide stability and security even in difficult snow conditions.The BOOST 94 is also at home on firmer slopes. It is stable on edge and holds lines securely. This freerider is the tool for adventurers whose exploits guarantee they will experience a wide variety of conditions.The BOOST series also includes the BOOST 99 and the BOOST JR.Sidecut162: 125-94-108170: 126-94-109188: 127-94-110182: 128-94-110Weight1390 grams in the 176 cm lengthLengths162, 170, 176, 182 cmRocker350 mm tip rocker and 140 mm tail rockerTip Height60 mmCoreUltra light PaulowniaTurning RadiusMultiradius 18 metersFeaturesDiamond Sidewall Elliptical Shovel Carbon Tip Stabilizer Micro Height ABS SidewallsTitanal Binding Area ReinforcementConstructionCarbon Fiber shovelPaulownia coreCarbon Fiber lower layerBaseHigh Molecular weight die-cut sintered graphite base with stone ground structure Recommended LengthYour height, +/- 5 centimeters based on weight and skiing style.CARBON CUT CAP TECHNOLOGYHAGAN's innovative and proprietary carbon fiber inlay in the ski tip increases stability and greatly reduces vibration, improving control and smoothness on hard chattery surfaces.DIE-CUT-BASEOur graphite sintered bases with die cut inlays are extremely durable with stone-ground base structure ideally tuned for optimal descending and gliding.MULTI RADIUSOur multiradius concept lets you adapt to snow conditions and speeds as desired, creating short and long turn radii on a totally individual basis. Increase forward pressure to shorten the turning radius, decrease forward pressure to lengthen the turning radius.LOW PROFILE 3D-SHAPEOur remarkably thin construction in conjunction with a micro-height sidewall greatly reduces weight. 3-Dimensional top surface shaping increases torsional rigidity and maximizes edge grip.ROCKERAll Hagan ski models are equipped with tip and tail rocker. The rocker length varies amongst models between 250 and 390mm front and 90 to 150mm. Optimized for the ascent, the "tour" rocker height is between 3 and 4mm.ELLIPTICAL FRONT SKIWe designed an elliptical shape to keep the oversized shovel perfectly manageable in any snow condition and all types of terrain. The elliptical shape surfs untracked powder perfectly, but also carves through breakable crust and difficult conditions with control and precision.DIAMOND EDGE CAPThe diamond shaped top cap ensures perfect power transmission and reduces swing weight.I highly recommend pairing your Boost 94s with matching custom-tailored 100% mohair HAGAN Boost 94 hybrid climbing skins!
