The XRC 500 is the introductory model to get to know the limitless possibilities in the world of skiing. It masters wide and tight turns in very different ski conditions and offers an extremely smooth ride thanks to TPS (Traction Power System).

These skis have a Head's Fiber Jacket/X-frame core technology. For all you non techies out there this makes this a ski for the intermediate to lower advanced level rider. Aggressive skiers who put a lot of force on their ski should look upwards at a higher series XRC Ski

Head XRC series skis are designed for all mountain enjoyment with a decided emphasis on carving groomed runs. They have the right shape to easily make perfect turns no matter what your skill level. XRC series skis run the gamut from low intermediate to expert. Though they are designed mainly for on trail fun, they have enough shape to enable skiing in the powder or crud. Make no mistake though these skis excel on groomers, hard pack, and ice. Because of this most all mountain Eastern skiers belong on XRC series skis. Western skiers who don't spend much of their time off groomed runs also are best off with XRC skis.

XRC series skis range from 300 to 1400. The bigger numbered skis are stiffer more feature laden and geared towards stronger skiers. The lower numbered skis are softer, easier to turn, perfect for intermediates and those who don't ski fast. There is some difference in features between model years, so be sure to check out the features on the ski you are looking at.

Our Ski Selector can take the guesswork out of choosing the correct ski. To perfect your carving experience, we recommend choosing any railflex binding listed below for the ultimate setup. Skiers who may want to spend a little more time off of groomed runs may want to check out our extensive selection of Monster series skis, which have a little more surface area for variable snow, but still sport a great all mountain sidecut. If you are strictly carving on groomers our 'C' series skis will better fit your style.

If you purchase this ski and choose a ski binding below, we will mount the bindings at no charge (including fat brake arms if necessary). If you also buy a boot from us on the same order, we will test and adjust the bindings to the boot so you are ready to hit the slopes out of the box. There will be a form for mounting and adjustment information AFTER checkout.
