The Concept is old faithful; almost everyone has skied on one and if you haven't skied on one, ask your next-door neighbour. Chances are they own one. A Closed Cell PU Core allows the Concept to be stronger and more durable while staying more forgiving out of turns. With its traditional high-end shape, the Concept still generates speed across the wake and feels powerful through a turn thanks to its dual concave. Finished with a smooth speed base, the Concept will always feel fast when you want it, across the wake and pulling out of those turns. Thanks to the Concept, you can now have a performance ski with the feel of an entry-level shape.
The Shadow is the boot with comfort and freedom at the forefront of their mind, allowing for plenty of control from boot to ski. With a lycra toe and heel wrap, the Shadow provides a snug fit, but combine it with the plush EVA footbed, and you get a complete and comfortable package around your foot. Connelly produced their signature superlight baseplate to reduce weight so that you can maximise your performance with less weight underneath your foot and with a shorter cuff for added freedom.
Waterski Features
Rocker
- Flat Spot - Underneath your front foot gives you comfort and stability while also propping you up higher on a platform for control throughout your entire motion from cut to turn.
- Continuous Rocker - Through the tip and tail allows the ski to always provide a constant level of speed across the wash and allows for a smooth, comfortable turn, drive through the wash, while still having the ability to easily keep that speed into your leading edge.
Flex
- Flex Rating(1=Soft, 10=Stiff) - 5/10
- Performance Glass Flex Sequence - Works in tandem with the C.A.P.T tech, creating a unique flex profile that allows for plenty of forgiveness and flex across the wake, while stiffness in the guts provides maximum stability.
Core
- Closed Cell PU Core – The most well-known core in waterskiing, with a tighter knit construction to reduce weight while remaining durable and providing a slightly softer feel meaning you can ski for longer, feeling less tired, while also getting more flex into turns and less rebound when crossing the wash
Laminates
- Fibreglass Laminates – The most forgiving top layer you can get, a simple fibreglass laminate allows the ski to provide a comfortable flex and smooth arcing turns.
Shape
- Variable Bevel - A sharper bevel through to the front binding of the ski that transitions to a round bevel in the tail allows the ski provides lift and speed in the nose across the wash, while the tail provides suction for tight turns for the apex of your cut or around the buoy
- X.C.A.P.T. (Xtreme Connelly Advanced Profile Technology) - The original profiled construction, allowing skis to reduce weight and specifically tailor a flex pattern to various points in the ski
Concave
- Double Concave - Providing the best of both worlds, having a second concave inset of the outer concave gives the ski plenty of balance and stability thanks to its channeled water flow, while the outer concave allows for easy roll and lock into edges.
