Overview
A beginner or intermediate adult can use the O'Brien Vortex, a wide-body combo pair with dual tunnels and adjustable bindings. The width is meant to make deep-water starts easier, and the build is fiberglass.
The reason to buy is the stable shape and bindings that adjust to the skier. The limitation is the listing detail: there is no rider weight limit and the binding range is not given.
Who it's for
A new or developing skier who wants forgiving width and bindings that change to suit different feet. Experienced skiers who want a narrow, aggressive ski should look at a slalom model.
Pros and cons
- Wide body for easy starts
- Dual tunnels for stability
- Binding size range not listed
- Weight limit not listed
- Bindings detailed only briefly
Performance notes
A wide body spreads the skier's weight and helps them rise out of deep water, and the dual tunnels add straight-line stability. Adjustable bindings let different foot sizes share the same ski.
