FLOW. POWER. VERSATILITY.
Perfect powder isn't guaranteed every day – and this is exactly where the freeride models with a waist width of up to 100 mm show what they can do. Whether on wide slopes with fresh powder, choppy gullies or hard mogul slopes – these skis deliver reliable performance on any terrain.
With a waist width between 95 and 100 millimetres, they are not big mountain skis, but true all-rounders. They offer sufficient lift in the backcountry, stability at high speeds and precision on the piste. In short: the perfect choice for freeriders who value versatility.
The tests were carried out directly in the Panorama Gondola area. There, our testers had access to a clearly defined terrain and a designated slope. This allowed the skis to be tested under comparable conditions both off-piste and on the slopes. As usual, the evaluation took place immediately after each run – neutral, practical and without reference to brands.
The result is clear: in the Freeride I category, manufacturers continue to perform at the highest level. From sporty high-performers to forgiving all-rounders, everything is represented – a line-up that is guaranteed to impress every freerider.
In a nutshell...
Skis with a waist width of 90–100 mm – true all-rounders between the piste and off-piste. Perfect balance of stability, agility and lift for every situation. From sporty and direct to forgiving – models for every skill level. The top choice for freeriders looking for flexibility, control and riding fun.
Target group:
Off-piste and piste enthusiasts looking for performance and versatility.
