Surface Skis says of the My Life: “It’s the Pat Benetar of freeride skiing.” For those youngsters out there who are unfamiliar with Pat, just know this: Pat is actually a girl, and she’s an 80s megarockstar. Equipped with early rise in the tip and tail, slight camber underfoot, a maple and poplar core and ABS sidewall construction, this ski grips, rips, floats, and pops. And it’s light as a feather. “This ski carves well and is stable,” explained a tester. “The tip and tail engage easily and the gradual rise makes for a fun crud and powder ski.”
