A 137-104-121 mm shape at 171 cm pairs an early-rise tip for float with a wide flat tail that keeps working in debris, and the 18.5 m radius at that length rewards a longer turn rather than a quick pivot. At 1,545 g per ski in a 171 the Voile Charger is the poplar build of the shape, damp at speed, and rated for telemark bindings as well as AT.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"ccbb-expert-line\"\u003e\n      \u003cspan class=\"ccbb-expert-badge\"\u003eExpert Review\u003c\/span\u003e\n      \u003cspan\u003eSpecifications verified against the manufacturer catalog for this model year.
