Any ski over 113mm underfoot can be thrown into a skid, but some would prefer it if the pilot knew how to point ‘em. Our Power picks not only aren’t afraid of speed, they live for it and to one degree or another, require it. Imagine you’re heli-skiing on a pitch so steep every turn triggers a slough line that seems intent on catching you from behind. You have a choice: accelerate or be swept over the next cliff band like a piece of luggage. It’s in moments like these that our Powder Power Picks were designed to rise to the occasion, keeping their cool when the going gets gnarly.
