The Atomic Maverick 95 TI is a classic anywhere, anytime ski. It felt, and is, extremely light underfoot, lively edge-to-edge, and had an incredibly satisfying edge hold at speed in all types of terrain. It’s a perfect example of a ski that rewards good technique, so as a result, would be an optimal choice for anyone from an intermediate to expert skier who loves exploring every nook and cranny on the mountain. And while it obviously doesn’t contribute to the ski’s performance, I received many a positive comments on the chair regarding its sleek topsheet aesthetics. If this ski were a rock star, it would be Jimi Hendrix all the way—a true maverick in a rock and roll genre. —PATRICK KINGHORN
