Völkl Unlimited AC40 Carbon (2008)
A ski with this much power should be tough to handle, but the AC40 arcs Christ-I-shouldn’t-be-going-this-fast turns with the muscle it takes to bat an eyelash.
Props
Nothing in the category compares to its turnability.
Gripes
It can feel too precise for knee-deep snow—wants to bite into the hardpack below.
Tester's Take
