Back in April, the Newschoolers crew hit up Banff Sunshine Village for our third annual ski testing bonanza.
Thanks to our pals@sunshinevillage,@evo.comand@DissentLabswe went even bigger and better than ever before.
We brought more skis and testers once again, and the whole event just keeps expanding year on year.
They handle it all from big features to playful swerving.
“A really great all-around ski.
I found them snappy and really easy to spin.
They surprised me, charging really well through cruddy snow in the afternoon.
They are stiff enough to hold up on jumps but definitely more of a playful park ski.
“Perfect, perfect freestyle ski!
Easy to get on and off rails and easy to spin.
Playful and super fun.
“Great swing weight, light, easy to maneuver, responsive on landings but still flexible.
It’s still far from a stiff ski but definitely more solid than the 94.
“Nice balance of playful and still supportive underfoot.
Really fun for butters, carves surprisingly well, pretty poppy.
Fun, versatile park ski.
But perhaps surprisingly, it was in the park that these skis shone the brightest.
But perhaps the standout feature of these skis was the low swingweight.
Despite being 101 underfoot, these were one of the lightest feeling skis of the whole test.
“Very fun, very playful ski.
It flexes, it pops and it holds up all over the hill.
It’s great on side hits, fun in the bumps and it slays in the park.
Definitely a jack of all trades ski.
“The Studio 1.0 is light, agile, and stable as could be.
It’s great on both rails and jumps, the swingweight on it is awesome.
These took me back to my comp skiing days.
