Salomon Scream 10 Pilot Xtra Hot w/ S914 Binding
|
The Salomon Scream 10 Pilot Xtra Hot with S914 binding fills a perfect gap between hardpack-oriented mid-fat and pure-powder fat skis. Narrow enough in the waist to rail the groomers and fat enough to float in deep powder and crud, the Scream 10 Pilot Xtra Hot offers one of the most versatile ski shapes weve ever seen. The Salomon Scream 10 Pilot Xtra Hot with S914 binding fills a perfect gap between hardpack-oriented mid-fat and pure-powder fat skis. Narrow enough in the waist to rail the groomers and fat enough to float in deep powder and crud, the Scream 10 Pilot Xtra Hot offers one of the most versatile ski shapes we’ve ever seen. It shoots for that elusive target of a true all-mountain ski—and for mountains from powder-choked Alta and Jackson Hole to the ice-ridden East coast, the Xtra Hot hits that mark dead-on. The Scream 10 Pilot Xtra Hot now features Salomon’s Spaceframe construction, which stiffens the ski under the boot and reduces mass at the tip and tail. This dramatically reduces swing weight and livens up the ski. The Pilot system lets the S914 bindings flex freely across the surface of the ski, preventing a dead spot—the length of ski beneath the boot that can’t flex under a traditional binding setup. This free-flex combined with a generous sidecut means this plank can rip the corduroy as easily as it can power through 3-day-old, sun-baked crud.

Training Tips
Heart monitors are useful for knowing when you are in the right zone for your training efforts. If you understand what your maximum heart rate is, you can set up your monitor to beep at you when you exceed the high or low range of your heart rate for the type of workout you are doing.
Cross training gives your body a chance to recover while still exercising. If yesterday has a hard run day up and down hills, then today's bicycle ride gives your aching knees a well deserved break.
Anaeroic threshold is when lactic acid starts to build up in your body as your muscles are not getting the oxygen they require. This threshold is typically expressed as a percentage of your VO2 max - the amount of oxygen per kilogram of weight that a person can use in converting fuel to energy. Elite athletes threshold might be as high as 90% of VO2 max.
Efficient running position allows you to run farther and faster. Keep the heel raise to a minimum, relax your upper body and hands, keep your upper body poised and quiet.
