The Sixam 2 is a wider and more stable version of the men's world-record-holding Sixam 1. Additional width makes this ski especially stable from the apex to the finish of the turn, and more forgiving than most other skis when it comes to skier error at the ball. It is not the fastest or hardest-turning ski on the market, but it carries out well and creates substantial angle. For a world-class skier with perfect technique, this ski may not be aggressive or fast enough, but for a 34 mph regional- or national-level skier, the Sixam 2 is user-friendly and offers great performance, according to the testers.
