Its name was cause for some chairlift snickering, but on snow the Superglide was no joke, winning a Testers' Choice award. It glues itself to the hill and smooths out any chatter in variable terrain. A friendly, carefree ride, it received high marks for forgiveness, playfulness, and maneuverability. And though it favors groomers, wind-buffed bumps and week-old crud present no serious problems. "It's hard to make a bad turn with this ski," said one Colorado tester, a professional ski instructor. It's a hop-on-and-go ski with a natural flex and the perfect amount of rebound an advancing intermediate's dream with plenty of juice for experts.
