The Overview:
When the snow begins to fall, all snowsports enthusiasts can think about is blasting through powder as soon as possible. But in order to get the goods, you need a weapon of choice. However, with fewer powder days on the East Coast than out West—a ski that can perform on hard-pack or ice-pack, and powder— is key. Liberty Envy Powder has a bamboo core, which is a strong material and sustainable, making this ski lightweight and energetic.  This versatile little number carves edge to edge quickly, thanks to camber underfoot. Rocker in the tip allows this ski to float in soft snow.

The Test:
Vermont is a tough place to test out skis. From our early season hard pack to our mid-season 3-6 inch storms the ski has performed through and through. This ski is light, flexible and poppy which allows for maximum fun on both groomers and softer stuff. It can hold an edge on ice but I prefect not to put this ski through that torture. But on the few days a year that we do get a proper snowstorm, the ski just floats like a dream.
