The Dynastar Speed Omeglass Fluid is the second step and also the access point into the Dynastar SL offer. With an identical sidecut to his elder brother, the Dynastar Speed Omeglass Pro R20 Racing (119 – 67 – 102 mm), the Dynastar Speed Omeglass Fluid has a wider client scope in mind. The size offering is wider and it goes from the shortest size at 155cm. to the longest one at 172cm., through the 160 and 165cm. sizes.

The Dynastar Speed Course Fluid is the second in the GS-like line of skis at Dynastar. It is a very similar ski to its brother the Speed Course Pro R20 Racing. With just a 40gr. difference on the weight, it is very easy to think we are talking about pretty much the same ski. The manufacturer fails to explain the difference between them. They both use the same technologies, sandwich construction, dual core, fibre-metal reinforcements, etc. So… the difference could be minimal as some lesser use of fibre-glass, a thinner metal layer or it could be none.

The Dynastar Speed Omeglass Pro R20 Racing is the high-end Slalom offering from Dynastar. The Omeglass brand is very well known in the market. It has defined the SL skis line at Dynastar for the past ten years. Anyone who hears it immediately knows what´s all about. Infinite, precise and powerful turns.
Its profile is the typical from an SL ski with a deep sidecut, a generous shovel and in this particular model a very sharp shaped tail. You won´t see a narrower end, sharper and more “extreme” tail in the Slalom market than in the Dynastar Speed Omeglass Pro R20 Racing. In fact, it is so “long” that the effective edge length is a bit shorter than in other skis. With a 119mm. wide tip, we will turn easily while keeping the accuracy at the entrance of every turn. A waist of 67mm. falls in between the thinnest ones at 63-64mm. and the widest ones at 71-72mm. wide. This profile leaves the theorical turn radius in just 12 meters, which is obviously good for a Slalom ski.

The Dynastar Speed Course Pro R20 Racing is Dynastar’s doorway into the GS range. A ski with an odd sidecut profile and a strange radius for a GS-like ski. Yes, the general public needs and deserves a softened version of the real FIS model, but this time Dynastar could have gone too far.
A more than generous 125mm. shovel, a big 106mm. tail and an astonishingly wide waist of 76mm. conform the Dynastar Speed Course Pro R20 sidecut profile. The result is a 16-meter radius for a GS-like ski, which isn´t the expected nor the required.
