This ski was going to be called something like «iSLR GT2» but looking at the test reports, «Supershape» just seemed more to the point. 2007+ the HEAD CHIP Supershape comes with a new sidecut geometry (71mm waist) for more versatility in soft snow. One of the most hi-tech, hi-fi, and hi-speed carving tools on the market.
