Courchevel is marking its 80th anniversary in style this winter \u2013 with the launch of an exclusive ski created in collaboration with iconic ski brand HEAD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The limited-edition ski is the result of a long-standing relationship between HEAD and Courchevel, which extends beyond the resort itself to include its sports club, local sporting hero Alexis Pinturault and a new generation of Courchevel athletes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To celebrate eight decades of the famous French resort, the tourist office wanted to create something that would capture Courchevel\u2019s history<\/a>, reputation for excellence and passion for skiing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Beyond black”<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The ski is an elegant, deep black finish inspired by the work of renowned French artist Pierre Soulages, famous for his “outrenoir” work \u2013 literally, beyond black.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even the smallest details have been considered. The name \u2018Courchevel\u2019 is laser-engraved directly onto the binding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ski is modelled on HEAD’s Supershape e-Magnum, a high-performance piste ski aimed at advanced and expert skiers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just 199 pairs<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

But if you fancy owning a piece of Courchevel’s 80-year history, you’ll need to move quickly as just 199 pairs of the anniversary ski are being produced<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The skis will be available through authorised HEAD retailers in Courchevel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
