2013 Volkl Kink

Shhh.. a $499 steal of a ski

A review on: 2013 Volkl Kink
Philpug

Pros: Playful and inexpensive

Cons: Could be pigeonholed as a "twiner" ski

  Review: The Kink was my runner up behind the Salomon Rocker2 90 in my 2013 "Steals & Deals". The Kink is the spiritual successor in the Volkl line to the Karma and Bridge, a ski that fills the niche between the al-mountain lines and Park series and lighter powder skis. The Kink very well could be the best combination of the three and the most versatile....for the least amount...

2009 Rossignol S4 Squindo Ski

2009 Rossignol S4 Squindo Ski

“ I always keep a pair of twin-tips around to play with when we haven't had any snow for a while. I use them mainly in the moguls.  My twins need to handle a light amount of crud, slush, powder, etc. but I'm not concerned about their deep snow performance.  Of all the twins I've owned I've enjoyed these the most.   One reason I like these is they have fairly decent dampening...” --Rio

Stockli Coral Snake

Stockli Coral Snake

“   The Coral Snake was only built for 2 years and then decisions were made to reduce side cut measurements and the new Snakes were moving towards the Park. My guess is that the configuration was too radical for the mainstream and they split the difference and made the Rotor 84 instead.     At 122 the Coral has almost the same shovel as the Stockli Laser SL (120),  ...” --Matonieve

2010 Boone Magic Sticks

2010 Boone Magic Sticks

“ I've skied on a lot of park skis in my day, and I have to say the Boone Magic Sticks in the freeride width stand out as my easy favorite.  I prefer a little wider ski for park than most people, so the 93mm waist works perfectly for me.  I know a number of people who ski on the 83mm waist ski, and they all have positive things to say as well.  The flex is unbelievable.  Very even throughout...” --JsNeagle

Ninthward First Blood Alpine Ski

Ninthward First Blood Alpine Ski

“I'm on my second pair of 180s, I sold the first ones (the ugly brown graphics) to a backcountry skier from Edwards. I have the 07 model now, I'm pretty sure the construction is the same as the 08. Turn radius 24m, seems about right in powder. 123/91/116 for a mid-fat isn't excessive, and they are stiff, well built.I ski Vail and Summit County where deep snow and crud are the main fare. The...” --snokat

2013 Kästle XX90 James

2013 Kästle XX90 James

“   Review: The James could very well be the post popular if the while XX series. With the XX James's 90mm waist, the versatility of this model will make it fun east or west, frontside or back, hell you could through some A/T bindings on them and they will excel in the back country. Hard snow performance was very good for a ski with this construction and like it's sir name, the West, I...” --Philpug

2005 Atomic Tweak

2005 Atomic Tweak

“The Tweak is an all-mountain twin that's a lot of fun both in and out of the park.  It's an extremely light ski, so it's very maneuverable and great in bumps as well.  Yet the carbon rods keep it stiff enough to stay very stable at speed, and it's a very capable carver.  The mountain point is also back from center, so it has a slightly more all-mountain focus than some pure park skis, but it's...” --mordy07
