al dente is anything but a pow ski, I would hardly consider it all mountain.

The al dente is a rockered soft, slightly wider park ski
PSA: THE AL DENTE IS NOT A ALL MOUNTAIN CHARGER OR A POW SKI. IT IS A SOFT, JIBBY WIDE PARK SKI

There have been skis that displayed both all mountain and powder characteristics since ski companies started selling specialized performance skis. The definition of all-mountain skis and powder skis has just changed over time as ski manufacturing got more advanced.

All skis outside park/pipe and racing are fatter. As others say, the definition is changing (and blurring). Jeffry is all mtn. Pow is >110mm underfoot, though I personally consider my 113mm underfoot all mtn...

Like pretty much all of Line's skis over 100 mm underfoot? Nothing new here.
