New for 2014-15, the Völkl One W skis earned compliments across the board. “This is the ultimate powder ski,” said one tester. “Obliterates the powder,” said another. Early taper and full rocker lend to this ski’s floaty nature—have a look at that category score. A few of the testers called it out specifically for its playful character, as well. It’s no surprise then, that many fancied this ski in the trees and in the bumps. “Charge through all variables with confidence,” confirmed one of our testers. If you’re hungry for fresh snow, you’d be smart to consider the Völkl One W skis.
