Overall, I just flat out really enjoy skiing the Ripstick 96… It helps me navigate difficult terrain in my own way, and more importantly it doesn’t punish me for when I’m not 100% on my game. The ski's tip and tail profile allow me to smear/cheat on certain turns (which makes me look and feel like a wayyy better skier). It skis so effortlessly across almost all snow conditions and allows me the confidence I need to push harder through more aggressive terrain. After the very first turn, this ski increased my stoke levels and made me feel 100% comfortable. For me that immediate click was the Ripstick 96. We test a lot of awesome skis and sometimes it takes a run-or-two to actually figure out a particular ski’s sweet spot/balance point… and sometimes it just clicks immediately.

TSM All-Around #1 Men's Ski of 2021: Armada Declivity 92 Ti I’m a better skier on the Declivity 92, and most of the people I ski with are as well. It is amazingly versatile for being so strong on the front side. We skipped all these skis that were supposed to be in between and just straight up cut to the chase. The Armada Declivity 92 Ti is the best ski I’ve ever skied it feels like a ski from the future.

All of us are different skiers, so no two lists are exactly identical, but here are each of our very scientific top 5 favorite skis for 2021. Unfortunately, the season getting cut short robbed us of some more pretty awesome trips, as well as some more photo content days, so we weren't able to get shots of everyone skiing their favorite ski but we skied 'em all. Matt crossed the Atlantic and got some days in at Garmisch in Germany, and there were a few additional Utah trips mixed in there as well. Some days here in the Northeast at Stowe, Cannon, Pico, Killington and Sunapee, but also at the Powder Magazine test in British Columbia and the Freeskier Magazine Test in Aspen where we literally ski every ski there is to ski in 4 days. The season might have been cut short, but in the 3.5 months the staff got a lot of days on snow. This last season the testing began in early December, at Waterville Valley in NH and went until, well Covid-19 hit.
Whether working your way down a groomer, swiveling through the bumps or trees, or even just walking to your car, light weight is an advantage that all can benefit from.For the last 13 years the majority of our days on snow have been testing skis.
