8. Candide 4.0 — Faction

faction

We tout this ski as a fat-board that can handle the deepest powder while still providing the best of times in between storms. Lightweight balsa and Titanal mounting plates strike a balance between lightweight playfulness and rock-solid performance. A multi-radius sidecut provides stellar maneuverability, too.

11. Lupo S.P.I.D. — Dalbello

dalbello

Stiff, custom-fitted, reliable. An ultra-burly hike/ski mechanism allows for extended range of motion for bootpacking or quicker ski-touring missions without comprising performance on the downhill. The three-piece Cabrio design yields outstanding response. This is the go-to of big-mountain star, Sean Pettit.
