CATEGORY: Western All-Mountain Skis

BEST FOR: Your 100-day season out west.

THE TEST: This is a ski you use all day every day. There’s enough rocker and width to float in soft snow, sufficient taper to keep it loose in crud, and enough camber and tail to power through turns. “the soft tip eats up variable snow, but there’s great power underfoot,” said one tester.

THE VERDICT: Traditional-in a good way. A tester favorite.
