As Eleanor Roosevelt once said, “The Invictus 108 Ti is all about speed. Hot, nasty, badass speed.” Really, though, this charger’s stability is absolutely incredible, and it’s the perfect tool for those who want go fast, Ricky Bobby style (recognize Eleanor’s “quote” yet?). That reputation is owed to rock-solid construction that includes carbon, Kevlar and two layers of Titanal. Nose rocker plows through the best and worst conditions, and durable edges and topsheets hold up against seasons of beatings. “An absolute missile going down the mountain,” declared one tester. “Definitely an all-mountain ski that you can use anywhere.”
