Rossignol Avenger 74 question

I recently bought a pair of 176 cm Rossignol Avenger 74 demo skis with Rossignol Axuim 100 bindings at a ski swap for $225.  I am pretty sure that they are from the 2010-2011 model year.  Does anyone know if they are the composite or titanium models?  The top sheets are white and it says auto-turn where the others say composite or titanium if that helps.  I can't really find anything on this online.

 

Thanks in advance!

I saw those skis on ebay, and the listings were generally > $300, so regardless you didn't get ripped off.

 

I don't think the Avenger 74 line comes in a titanium version (but the 76 and 82 do).  The retail options were Composite or Carbon.  I'm not sure if the demo version is just a different painted Comp or Carbon, or if it is of an entirely different construction.  The one fishy thing is on a current ebay listing, it says the turning radius is 12m at 166cm, whereas the comp and carbons are 15m at 166cm.  That could be a typo on the listing...what radius does your ski say?

 

Yeah information is scarce for the demo version, but if I had to take a guess, I bet its the Composite version, because I think that was the model made in higher volume.

 

But take my advice with a grain of salt, I'm pretty new to all of this. I ended up with the 74 carbon's as my first ski, can't wait to try them out.
