The Sender is a new lightweight 104mm underfoot ski from Rossignol. Compared to the metal-laminated Sender TI, the Sender has a more forgiving flex and is considerably lighter, making for a more playful and maneuverable ski. With its wide tips and tails this ski initiates turns easily and is a blast to carve, and the balanced flex pattern provides a smooth ride and good stability at speed.

If you enjoy skiing the trees/bumps and exploring off trail in the mornings and burning groomer runs in the afternoon consider the Nordica Enforcer 100's. These have a layer of titanal combined with wood in the core. These are damp and absorb a lot of energy when jamming. The rocker camber slight tail rocker shape is designed to keep this ski stable. The slight rocker in the tail instead of a full rocker helps the ski remain stable and will have you felling confident on every turn.

The Reckoner 102 is awesome on jumps, while also holding its own in soft snow. With a versatile mid-fat waist and all-terrain twin rocker profile, these skis have what it takes to hang in the steep and deep, but have zero hesitation when it comes to hucking a big cliff. This is a true all-mountain ski with plenty of versatility!

This ski has the most off piste maneuverability and best powder float on this list by a fairly significant margin. It has deeper rocker lines in the tips and has way more tail rocker and splay then the other skis. The deeper rocker lines make this ski feel exceptionally maneuverable and easy to pivot in tight trees and bumps. The wider waist and rocker also make this ski the most capable powder ski by a fairly significant margin (it can handle a foot of pow very well). It also has a more medium turn radius at 18.5m. Finally, this ski has a full metal laminate giving it impressive high speed composure and a very planted feel in sketchy conditions. (dealers choice on 186 or 191cm length, I would personally lean towards 186 because it is fairly hefty)

Incredibly well rounded ski for someone who wants/needs a one ski quiver. 15mm turning radius makes weaving through the trees a breeze. Strong enough to rail medium length turns on groomers, and providing stability and dampness to blow through chop.

A great option that is a bit more of a freeride all mountain ski but can easily hit the park with ease with their extra durable bases and thicker edges. These are a directional twin so they can easily be skied in either direction but sacrifice nothing when it comes to skiing and carving hard out on the rest of the mountain. Lastly, one of my favorite features on these is the 5 cut side radius allowing for a variety of small and large turns without skipping a beat in between!

Fischer redesigned the Ranger series for 2023, aiming to combine the best traits of the old Ti Rangers-stability and dampness- with those of the Ranger FR- playfulness and nimbleness. Each Ranger has a sheet of metal underfoot, but with each iteration of the Ranger, the layer of metal gets shorter as the ski gets wider. So the metal in the Ranger 102 makes up only about half of the ski, resulting in a much softer and playful ski overall. The 102 is built for days when soft snow is plentiful and skiers are looking to romp through trees and off-piste without an overly demanding ski asking too much of them of punishing them for bad form. But the metal underfoot gives the ski plenty of stability when you are racing down your favorite groomer back to the lift.

Mana Progressive Twin Shape which is versatile for freeride skiing. A slightly skinnier tail width than tip width means this ski is faster and performs better on the downhill than a completely symmetrical ski. The Mana has identical twin tip height for easy switch skiing and landings. Medium turn radius keeps these agile and snappy, but stable. 102mm underfoot this ski is ready for groomers or powder.

Armadas lightest caruba wood core paired with a powerful titanal layer gives you all the power you could need at a more manageable weight, especially in tighter spots when you're weaving through trees. The free ride rocker shape gives a bit more rise in the tips for better float while the positive camber underfoot lets you carve with ease on even the iciest days! Really just a very well rounded ski that you can take anywhere without worrying about the conditions!

Want skis that float like a true powder ski but grip and rip like your edge is a serrated knife? Do you want skis that are playful like your favorite rocker ski but will pop you up onto any rail with ease? These are your sticks. The triple camber makes sure that these skis come preloaded with energy and have twice the initial points of contact when initiating your edge. As you power into it, the rest of the edge grips in with even pressure ensuring that you don't slow down on your turn and actually accelerate you out of it. The rocker in the tip and tail is super playful and opens the whole mountain up to look like a playground. If there is one ski that changes the entire way you look at and ride a mountain, this is it.
