Let OnTheSnow help you find the appropriate ski to match your personal style or ability. We've made it easy to find the right skis at the right price for you.

Check out our interactive 2010 OnTheSnow Ski Buyer's Guide. You will find the ski you are looking for, whether you cruise the groomed runs, prowl the backcountry for powder, jib, and fly through the terrain park, or buzz through the trees.

Our team of professional ski instructors gathered in February 2009 at Snowbasin Resort in Utah to test and critique more than 100 skis from the top manufacturers, including Roxy, Dynastar, Atomic, Rossignol, Volkl, K2 and more. These reviews are not advertising supported in any way and solely represent the opinions of our testers.

You'll discover more than 200 reviews including tester ratings, their personal comments, technical specs, photos, and prices.

Use the Ski Finder option to search for skis based on gender and ability.

Browse the Ski Categories to find the right ski for you based on style: Freeride, Carvers, or All Mountain.

Check out the Ski Top Picks section to see which skis ranked highest amongst our professional testers.

Hit the links to the manufacturer's Web site for more information or to make a purchase.

    Hello i'm an intermediate to advanced female skier who's looking to invest in some good on/off piste skis that will hopefully last me a good number of seasons. One of the pairs that I'm looking is the Rossignol B80 Women FreeBeam. Problem is I think this model is so new I haven't been able to find any reviews on them? Has anyone tried them or an older version of the same skis and any comments very helpful cheers!

    You can find answers to all your questions at realskiers.com. They have reviews of skis going all the way back to 1999 and offer a consulting service. Good luck!

    Hello! I am an intermediate skier and mainly stay on piste. Last season I tried out the thinner waisted 2009 K2 Lotta Luv skis and thought they were great. I am now looking to buy some skis but the 2010 versions now have a wider waist/larger sidecut radius. As I haven't been able to try these yet, I'm now not sure which version to purchase. I tried to find the 2009 equipment review to compare the scores but couldn't find it.

    Can someone please advise what the difference this change would make to my skiing? Any recommendations as to whether I should go for the 2010 or 2009 versions would be much appreciated. Thanks!
