Kristin Sinnott & Sascha Anastas review the RMU Valhalla 107 for Blister

2023-2024 RMU Valhalla 107

by
RMU says their women-specific Valhalla 107 is “a skier's dream once you enter fresh snow,” but at a narrower width than most powder-specific models, can the Valhalla 107 really compete when things get deep? And what about its all-mountain versatility? Check out our Full Review & Deep Dive comparisons for our take.

Luke Koppa reviews the Blizzard Rustler 11 for BLISTER.

2023-2024 Blizzard Rustler 11

by

Check out our Full Review & Deep Dive comparisons.
Kara Williard reviews the Volkl Secret 102 for BLISTER.

2023-2024 Volkl Secret 102

by

The new Volkl Secret 102 doesn’t totally break that trend, but it does offer a really impressive balance for the right skiers. Check out our Full Review & Deep Dive comparisons.
