I've been meaning to get on this for a while but is Ski sponcered my Atomix or something? I've been looking in their buyers guide and every first place ski is an Atmoix with skis in the 5-6-7 range out preforming the first place ski quite handily.

I dont know cuz I dont really read SKI anymore. Once I got a subscription to Skiing and Powder I found out how much better those magizines were. Id definetly recommend switching mags, you'll most likely love it.
Oh and sorry I didnt answer your question but I have no idea if Atomic sponsers SKI. Maybe their skis are just really good or something

ski blows it. also, ski companies have to pay to be included in the magazines' tests. my guess is atomic paid them more.

Ah yeah I read Freeskier and Powder but my dad has a subscription to SKI and it baffles me that skis that are rated like a 4.2 overall are in 8th place and a 3.5 overall is in first. Thanks guys +k

over all the demographic of this site and the demographic of ski mag are very different, this website tends to be for highschool/college aged kids with rich parents, ski mag is for those rich parents.

SKI should be renamed:
Where to put your 2 million dollar house in the mountains, what expensive car to buy and food to eat and occasionally SKI magazine
Next issue: Gaper handbook, best ski resort food, most luxurious ski gondola, how to get in the yellowstone club, and resort guide putting deer valley in the #1 spot.
