This marks the fourth straight year that Jason Levinthal’s The Metal has been named an Editors’ Pick. We love this ski so much, in fact, that we collaborated with J last winter for a small-batch run of FREESKIER 20th Anniversary Metals. They didn’t disappoint. The Metal employs a rocker-camber-rocker profile for a nimble ski that’s ultra-stable. J also matched the geometry of the rocker profile with that of the sidecut, resulting in a ski that’s smooth as butter from edge to edge, in all conditions. FREESKIER’s Damian Quigley enthusiastically characterized The Metal as “a badass ski for badass skiers.”
