If you're a rebel leader who's looking for a big-mountain artillery piece to keep your minions in check, the Salomon El Dictator Ski is your weapon of choice. Designed by freeride rippers Cody Townsend and Kaj Zackrisson, this stiff and burly plank was definitely built for powder, speed, and huckin' your meat, but it also features a rockered tip and a small amount of camber underfoot for added turnability and edge hold on the hardpack. In a market trending toward forgiveness and all-mountain versatility, few skis stand apart to represent the old school. This is one of them.
