Differences skis

I went and picked up a pair of Differences skis, which were recommended to me. They are handmade in Vorarlberg, which is nearby. All I can say is that they really improved my skiing. I am an intermediate skier. These skis allowed me to whiz down slopes with the maximum of confidence. When Philip at SportAlp asked me how good a skier I am and I replied, "Intermediate", he gave me this quizical look as if to say, "Are you sure you want these skis?". Only later, when I was returning them did another guy tell me that they are skis for expert racers. Well, I felt like a racer today. Other skis usually start to rattle a bit when I go fast, which makes me feel insecure so I slow down. But these skis were so still as I raced down slope after slope. Of course, the packed pistes were also the perfect condition for this kind of skiing, but I do believe these skis made all the difference!
