New for ’18-’19, Head introduced a 99mm-waisted ski to fill the gap between the Kore 93 and Kore 105 skis. Testers loved the Kore 99’s ability to do anything, anywhere, and claimed it rode the entire mountain like a freerider with the heart of a racer. With the same layers of KOROYD, karuba wood, and triaxal-woven carbon mixed with tip-and-tail graphene infusion as its siblings, the Kore 99’s weight was judged favorably by testers all day long.
Strengths: Forgiveness, Versatility
Weakness: Flotation
