For the 2021 winter season, HEAD are adding something totally new to their ski range. The HEAD EMC (Energy Management Circuit) is the only electronic ski dampening system in the world and is the highlight of HEAD’s new racing collection.
The HEAD EMC ski flexes and oscillates while you are skiing, generating energy that the Energy Management Circuit converts into electronic energy. A reduction in vibrations is the result, making the ski smoother, more stable and easier to ski.
The HEAD EMC (Energy Management Circuit) features ceramic piezo plates incorporated into the front and rear of the ski. Here, the kinetic energy is converted into electronic energy and in turn, the electronic energy is used to absorb negative vibrations. This means that the ski runs smoother and allows you to ski at a higher level all day long. It also has the added benefit that the ski adapts better and faster to the terrain, so you are always ahead of the game.
This is certainly one we’re looking forward to testing out for ourselves on the slopes.
