I don't have a modern Amundsen, but I do have some 20 year old Sondre skis, which are the exact same geometry as Amundsen, just with a softer flex. They should be easier to turn than the Amundsen, and for all I know they are.dave52 wrote: ↑Sun Nov 27, 2022 3:28 pmSome good info has been already said on this but seeking a little more detail if anyone cares to chime in... comparing the Gamme to Amundsen, how much more easily can the Gamme turn compared to the Amundsen? And where else would would that rockered shovel in the Gamme come in handy?
However, there is no comparison with the Gamme. Turn initiation on the Gamme is just so much easier, they are a pleasure to use on trails where I would not even consider using the Sondres.
From what I have heard, the Ousland has similarly good turning. Slightly better in some snow conditions, slightly worse in others, but overall quite similar.
