2022-2023 4FRNT Hoji

The middle ski in Eric Hjorleifson's signature series got a big update this season, and we think the changes make for a notably more versatile ski — whether you use it in the backcountry or at the resort. Check out our full review & Deep Dive comparisons of the Hoji.

Luke Koppa and Dylan Wood review the RMU Apostle 3.0 106 for Blister

2021-2022 RMU Apostle 3.0 106

The revised Apostle 106 is an exceptionally maneuverable and easy ski, but certain skiers could also really like it for skiing fast and dynamically all over the mountain. Check out our full review & Deep Dive comparisons.

Dylan Wood and Luke Koppa review the Sego Comp 110 for Blister

2021-2022 Sego Comp 110

The Sego Comp 110 seems like a pretty niche ski — it was designed for freeride skiers who need to ski fast and go big, and also throw tricks. But after a season on it, we think its rare blend of traits could be appealing to many skiers — not just those on the competition circuit. Check out our full review & Deep Dive comparisons.

2021-2022 Rossignol Blackops Sender Squad
