Dynastar Contact 11 (2007)

More versatile than the Speed Course (see review next page), the Contact 11 offers up big-turn stability and a vise-grip hold. Testers found it easy to square up to the fall line and put their faith in this damp but dynamic ripper. gripes: Need to rev ’em up before you can let ’em go. props: Great in all snow conditions, not just hardpack. tester’s take: "A smooth ride in short or long turns—awesome edge-to-edge." —Johnny Alamo
