Grown tests in printed and online magazines 

Planet Snow and DSVaktiv ski magazine from December 2012 (06/12) testing the Grown allmountain ski 'OutGrown', season 2012/13, with alpine bindings: "The Grown ski is a harmonically balanced freeride ski (...) showing a high performance through its high dampening capabilities, making it stable and calm at high speeds. The ski convinces with precise steering offpiste, but also onpiste. A great allmountain ski."  

Telemarkfriends.com testing the Grown allmountain ski 'OutGrown', season 2012/13, with Telemark bindings: "Direct, without compromise. Grown skis need space and speed - if given both, there hardly is a better ski".

The Swiss Institute for Snow and Avalanche Research (SLF) in Davos has tested Grown skis in their snow laboratory. Result: Grown skis with their eco friendly materials and construction are at least as durable and tough as conventional ski constructions - even more, the basalt fibre construction delivers exceptional dampening in high speeds.

General recommendations 

NORR, the Scandinavian outdoor magazine, accepts Grown skis as new Green Partner, amongst selected companies such as Patagonia, Vaude, Hilleberg and Bergans: "Grown is the pioneer and leader in sustainability in the ski industry."

Grown test videos - o-tone by skiers testing Grown skis 

Sometimes a skier tests our skis and sends us a short video, and sometimes we interview someone who just skied on Grown skis and ask what she or he felt. Take a look at what skiers feel and think. Check out the ski test playlist below (showing multiple test videos in a row) and visit the Grownski channel on Youtube for more videos.
