Andy Mink: There’s a reason the Supershape iRally is so popular: it flat out rips on groomers, from soft and chalky through recycled hard pack. Unchanged for 2019, the Rally boasts width underfoot between 74 and 77 mm depending on length. All lengths have a turn radius less than 15 m. What does this mean for the intermediate to advanced skier? You can lay track for Union Pacific! The wide shovel pulls you into the turn. The farther you lay the ski over, the more the tip engages.

While the Rally doesn’t demand that you ski hard, it prefers that you do. It will tolerate intermediate-level mistakes, but not big ones. This is a ski at the edge of advanced/expert level. If you desire to ski hard and fast with lots of turning on the groomers, this is definitely a ski to consider.

Insider tip: If you want to save some money and aren’t planning on skiing hard all the time, take a look at the Head V8 or V10.​

Philpug: Head took the very successful iSpeed and iRally and gave them more direction, more purpose. The addition of Graphene, a new profile, and a new tip shape has resulted in a more technical feel for these Supershapes.
Insider tip: Instructors, these make most any turn shape at any speed. Great teaching skis.​

Technical skiers. If you measure your fun with each turn, these are your sticks. The skier willing to go at least 8/10 all day.

The cruiser who likes to grab a few trenches now and then but is happy just being on the hill. Those who like making figure 11s.

Friend just picked up few year old Irallys. Everyone that tried them, really liked them.

I will say the 2020 color scheme looks like rentals. Either that or a lot of people in U.P. have the 2020 version.

They really do look like rentals. Something about that gray.
