Our best freeride skis for 2026



    Some of the most impressive skiing you've ever seen is likely done on freeride skis. These burlier, robust, and wider-built skis help you seek out the deepest, steepest and all-out freakiest descents on earth, and be able to put your own creative stamp on it. Powder skiing, steeps, couloirs, and even a bootpack itinerary... it's all on the menu. Explore our top freeride ski picks in the new 25|26 lineup.
