Jonathan Ellsworth reviews the Salomon XDR 88 Ti for Blister

2019-2020 Salomon XDR 88 Ti

by
The XDR 88 Ti replaced one of our favorite all-mountain skis, the Salomon X-Drive 8.8 FS. So how similar is the XDR 88 Ti, and what type of skiers will most enjoy it?
Jonathan Ellsworth reviews the Head Monster 88 for Blister

2019-2020 Head Monster 88 Ti

by
With the Monster 98 and 108 now gone, the new, redesigned Head Monster 88 Ti is now the widest ski in the Monster series. So what changed and what stayed the same with this new ski? Check out our measured specs, rocker pics, initial impressions, and Flash Review.
Blister reviews the K2 Pinnacle 95 Ti

2018-2019 K2 Pinnacle 95 Ti

by
Light, but pretty stable. Surfy, but can hold an edge. Forgiving, but supportive. The newest iteration of the K2 Pinnacle 95 Ti feels like a bit of a contradiction, but the result is a pretty versatile ski that we think a lot of skiers may enjoy. Check out our full review.
Jonathan Ellsworth reviews the ON3P Wrenegade 96 for Blister

2019-2020 ON3P Wrenegade 96

by
The brand-new ON3P Wrenegade 96 is the narrowest directional ski in ON3P’s lineup, but it definitely doesn’t look like some corduroy cruiser. So how does it compare to the Wren 98 it replaced, as well as other skis in its class? Check out our measured specs, rocker pics, initial impressions, and Flash Review.

Blister reviews the Armada Invictus 89 Ti

2019-2020 Armada Invictus 89 Ti

by
The Armada Invictus 89 Ti is the narrowest metal-laminate ski in Armada’s revamped Invictus lineup, and while it has two layers of titanal, it isn’t heavy, and it has lots of tip rocker. So what sort of ski is it? Check out our measured specs, rocker pics, and initial impressions.

18/19 Liberty V92

by
Check out our initial on-snow impressions of the V92, including comparisons to the Renoun Z-Line 90, Blizzard Brahma, and Folsom Spar 88.

Blister reviews the Liberty VMT 92

2018-2019 Liberty V92

by
With full-length carbon, vertically laminated metal struts, and straight-up steel plates underfoot, Liberty’s brand-new "V" line of skis sound serious. Though the story gets a bit more complicated (and more interesting) when you take a closer look. Check out our measured specs, rocker pics, initial impressions, and Flash Review of the V92.

18/19 Liberty Origin 90

by

Luke Koppa reviews the Liberty Origin 90 for Blister

2018-2019 Liberty Origin 90

by
For the 18/19 season, Liberty has revised the Origin 90. Take a look at our measured specs, rocker pics, initial impressions, and Flash Review, to see how different it is from the 17/18 Origin 90, and how much family resemblance there is to the Origin 96, 106, and 112.
