FAQ
Are the Kore 93 good on groomers?
Yes—solid grip for the width. Dedicated piste skis remain calmer at very high speeds.

As a rule of thumb, between chin and top of head; longer for stability, shorter for agility.
What brake width fits?
Choose 95–100 mm brakes to cover the ~93 mm waist without catching.
