For five days in April we tested hundreds of 2012/13 park-specific skis at Breckenridge Ski Resort. The Freeway and Park Lane terrain parks—littered with jumps, rails and a massive superpipe—provide an ideal stomping grounds to test skis. Our crew of ski testers spun hot-lap after hot-lap on Chair 5 testing skis in the following departments: carving, stability, swing-weight and playfulness.
