Review from Powder7.com: A flexible wood core with reinforcements allows the Hot Rod Igniter Ca to excel all over the mountain, with a penchant for the groomed runs. Expect the Hot Rod Igniter Ca to deliver snappy turns and provide respectable float when you find yourself in softer snow. This a great, relatively light weight ski for someone who wants to cruise the mountain with ease. It differs from the Hot Rod Igniter Ti in that it is lighter, with less metal in its construction. It is built for a less advanced skier than the Ti version, or a skier who prefers a light weight ski.
