A repeat Editor’s Pick, the Wailer 99 is based on the DPS Wailer 112RP which is also a pick this year. That’s a whole lot of award-winning action in play. Down to brass tacks: The Wailer 99 was celebrated by testers for its ability to rock all around the frontside. “Super quick edge to edge,” said one. “Light, agile and fun… Pop off those tails!” Subtle rocker with metal inserts in the tips and tails keeps you in control over crud, adding to this ski’s versatile nature. At just 99 mm underfoot, the one thing testers craved was a bit more stability when landing cliffs and airs.
