BEST FOR: No-B.S. shredding nationwide. 
THE TEST: The brand-new Shreditor 102 ($660) skis well on groomers, but it excels in real-world off-trail conditions. The extra-damp ride soaks up chunder. And the ability to endlessly vary the turn shape means you can run them down the open face, into the bumped-up gut, through the trees, and over the rock into the chute. 
THE VERDICT: “The perfect off-piste ski,” said a tester. “It does everything you ask.” 131/102/127.
