Of all the skis we've reviewed, the Volkl V-Werks Katana stands out as certainly the most surprising and one of the most impressive.

2014-2015 Blizzard Bodacious
Versatile, stable, forgiving, and damp. The Blizzard Bodacious is an outstanding big-mountain / fatter all-mountain ski.
2014-2015 SCOTT Vanisher
The new SCOTT Vanisher is a light and playful ski that works best in soft conditions and is a whole lot of fun.
2016-2017 Armada Invictus 108Ti
Unlike anything Armada has made before, the new Invictus is a directional all-mountain ski with a stout, big-mountain feel.
2nd Look: DPS Wailer 105
We take another look at the new DPS Wailer 105, with comparisons to skis in its class from Moment, Line, Salomon, Blizzard, and more.
2014-2015 Blizzard Cochise
