Black Diamond Verdict Ski

By Backcountry.com Employee January 30, 2009

I got to try the Black Diamond Verdict for a day, and now I'm dying for a pair. They are a wonderful stiffnes which can be hard to find in a reasonably light ski. They were slightly heavier than I was expecting, but for the performance, they're well worth it. My everyday ski is the '07-'08 Dynastar Legend Pro Rider and I wish I had a pair of Verdicts for my touring set-up vs. the noodles I currently have my Fritschis on. The Verdicts blew through wind affected snow and were to me an ideal width for a touring ski. They also held an edge really well on groomers, though personally I actually wish they were slightly straighter. A great ski for your touring set up, or your one ski quiver for both in bounds and backcountry skiing.
