The new Shape e.V5 has a playful personality, enhanced with EMC vibration-reducing technology and a light construction.
Fun and playful, the new Shape e.V5 is an easy-turning, frontside ski. The construction includes woodcore composite with sidewalls, enhanced in the front with HEAD's EMC technology, which absorbs negative vibrations creating a smoother ride.
ERA 3.0 makes turn initiation a cinch thanks to the rockered tip combined with full edge contact for groomed snow performance. The agile 74-mm waist and LYT Tech materials result in less fatigue for a full day on the slopes.
LYT Tech Construction
By developing a ski line with lightweight Karuba wood and Graphene fully embedded we were able to increase performance while making it lighter. A unique weight distribution makes tip and tail thicker and the middle section thinner. The V-shape gives you effortless control for better steering, more stability and control.
EMC F
The front of the ski includes a ceramic piezo plate that converts kinetic energy into electronic energy, which then absorbs unwanted vibrations for a smoother ride.
ERA 3.0
A smart mix of rocker, radius, and rebound—three key technologies combined to create the ultimate all-mountain ski. Rocker Done Right.
Graphene
The thinnest and lightest material known, used strategically in the ski to make it incredibly strong and lightweight—perfectly tuned to your riding style.
A lightweight design that blends a fiber jacket with strong ABS sidewalls—giving you smooth, easy skiing with better shock absorption, stability, and edge grip.
A vertically laminated wood core surrounded by lightweight PU for a smooth ride with less vibration—ideal for skiers seeking confident, performance-driven turns.
Structured UHM C Base
Made from the same top-quality material used in HEAD’s race skis, this durable base features a special texture for excellent performance in all snow conditions.
Easy turning
Shape’s all-mountain credentials let’s you confidently flow from edge to edge, carving perfect turns from ice to slush, corduroy to chopped up powder.
Super LYT done right
LYT Tech makes an incredibly lightweight ski, with more material where it matters and less elsewhere. Use less energy. Ski for longer.
If you would like your skis set up and waxed, please send an e-mail sales@theski-shop.co.uk after placing your order with the following information below.
Please include your name and order number. Otherwise, skis will be sent out and will require waxing and setting up at your own convenience.
Skis with bindings drilled on will be classed as used and non-returnable unless faulty.
Information & details required from you for ski setup:
- Skier's Age.
- Skiers Height.
- Skiers Weight.
- Boot brand/make & sole length in millimeters. Usually found embossed on side of heels. eg 315mm
- Skier classification: Please pick one: Type -1, Type 1, Type 2, Type 3, Type 3+
Type -1
Skiers looking for a lower release setting than type 1. Recommended for beginners over 25 years old.
Type 1
Ski conservatively. Prefer slower speeds. Ski on easy to moderate slopes. Intermediate level, but not in good physical fitness. Good skiers, but with smooth supple style, but emphasizing safety. Favour lower than average release/retention settings – This corresponds to increased risk of inadvertent binding release in order to gain increased release capacity in a fall.
Type 2
Intermediate skiers in good physical condition. Prefer a variety of speeds. Ski on varied terrain, including most difficult trails. All skiers who do not meet all the descriptions of the other types.
Type 3
Ski aggressively. Normally ski at high speeds. Prefer moderate to steep terrain. Favour higher than average release/retention settings. This corresponds to decreased capability to release in a fall in order to decrease the risk of inadvertent binding release. (Type 3 should not be used by skiers of less than 22kg)
Type 3+
Very strong skiers, on challenging terrain. Skiers looking for higher release settings than type 3. N.B Skier type does not have the same meaning as skier ability. I.E, an advanced skier who skis all-terrain but is not particularly aggressive may be able to use type 2 settings.
Using the boot sole length you give, we set the binding to that length, but the final adjustments and checks can only be made with the actual boot. Heel and toe units on ALL boots have to conform to a certain size and shape. However, sometimes boots especially older models or well-worn ones, may vary in length compared to another stating the same measurements hence it is important that you do have them professionally double-checked. We recommend that you have your skis double-checked by your local or resort ski shop with your actual boot.
