HEAD & Porsche: Two titans of speed celebrate 50 years of the 911 Turbo

COLLABORATE TO ACCELERATE - together we are even faster: HEAD and Porsche have been committed to this tagline for a number of years. Once again, HEAD and Porsche pool their industry-leading technical know-how to construct three exclusive skis with the highest performance. And there is a complete collection of high-end sportswear and accessories influenced by the multifaceted history of the legendary 911 Turbo sports car.

Three high-octane ski models in tartan

Since its debut, the 911 Turbo has stood out with its unique design and exceptional performance. Features that HEAD and Porsche made the foundation of their ski collection in recognition of five decades of 911 Turbo and eight generations of Porsche 911. They have created three high-octane ski models, where the design was inspired by the tartan pattern of the first Turbo generation. The timeless design of the silver PORSCHE | HEAD 8 Series is based on the very first Turbo from 1974. This Porsche was built exclusively for Ferdinand Porsche's daughter Louise Piëch as a one-off for her 70th birthday on the 29th of August. Its counterpart, the black PORSCHE | HEAD 7 Series with design elements in light green, harks back to the first Turbo produced in series, and its world début appearance on October the 3rd 1974 in Paris. The ski collection is rounded off by the PORSCHE | HEAD W Series for women, in which the tartan pattern stands out most in black, blue and red.

A choice of three ski models is available: the racing inspired 7 series, the versatile all-mountain 8 series, and the athletic women's W series. Each ski is fitted with the innovative Protector binding, which reduces the load on the front cruciate ligament by fifty percent. For each set of skis and bindings there is also an exclusive ski bag, stylish sport clothing and a selection of high quality accessories.

PORSCHE | HEAD 7 Series

The PORSCHE | HEAD 7 series ski handles curves like the car: fast and dynamic, as if it were running on rails. The sporty sidecut and the high-end construction make the 7 series a performance-driven, fast and track-holding ski for experienced carvers.

The new PORSCHE | HEAD 8 series works well in varying snow conditions thanks to its power and dynamics. It is designed for skiers looking for an all-mountain ski that gives them stability and confidence in any terrain. Both the 7 series and the 8 series are based on a design inspired by racing, which ensures perfect control even at high speeds.

PORSCHE | HEAD W Series

The PORSCHE I HEAD W series is a ski especially designed for women. Discerning women skiers will love the PORSCHE I HEAD W series. With a centre width of 70 mm and new geometry, these skis perform with finesse no matter the speed, and excel on all types of turns - whether long or short.

The Protector PR 13 binding with Full Heel Release technology (FHR) offers maximum safety thanks to its reduced release values in forward and especially backward falls, ensuring less strain on the knees and safer skiing.

PORSCHE | HEAD Carbon
