Bob and Jeff have been handing the Maverick 95 Ti back and forth for the past week or so. Sometimes the "middle child" ski in a line doesn't get full attention, but the 95 sure deserves it!

10:40, Jeff, you are spot on with your comment about Maverick. I had exactly the same experience. At first I didn't like it but now after several days on them I absolutely love it. Those skis are really something but as a skier you must be in control and tell them what you want. Light , grippy, responsive, can be aggressive, can be soft. Hard packed, soft packed, boot deep powder... no problem, they handle all that with ease :))

Hi Bob and Jeff, truly love your content and reviews. Looking for a good all-mountain ski around the mid 90s width range (although I have considered the ~100mm models as well). I went out to Copper this year and borrowed my brother's M5 Mantra 177. The ski really ripped in the groomers (about 50% of my time) and later-day crud but I personally found it difficult on moguls (although might be the skier not the ski) and the in the 2 ft powder days we got- although it honestly was still a lot of fun everywhere, just less manageable for me in some terrain. Also found them a bit heavy later in the days when my legs got a bit tired- definitely had to have a lot more conscious decision making to keep those beasts under control. I'm 22, 5' 10', 160 lbs, relatively athletic build, and probably an intermediate-advanced skier that skis everything except for park. Looking for a ski with similar speed confidence but that's a bit lighter and easier to maneuver than the M5 with a bit more versatility off-piste. Also, to make things more difficult, not sure if I'll be east or west coast primarily as I'm graduating soon. So far, I've narrowed it down a bit to the Maverick 95 Ti, the new Ranger 96 or 94 FR, BLACKOPS Escapers, and the Ripstick 96s. Sorry for the long post, but would really appreciate any advice in which skis I should look toward selecting for next year. Thanks!

Hey Zach! I got a few lines of text into your comment and started thinking "Maverick 95 or Ranger 96," then I noticed you commented on the Maverick review, then I noticed you listed the Ranger 96 as an option! Safe to say, I think you're on the right track here. I do think you can rule out the Escaper as that ski doesn't have as much stability or edge grip as the others. Maverick 95, Ranger 96, and Ripstick 96 would all be fantastic skis for you. Rangers are going to feel the smoothest, in my opinion. Mavericks are the most responsive, most energetic, then Ripsticks are going to feel the most playful. Ripstick Black has equal vibration damping to the Ranger 96, although the price goes up quite a bit for the Black Edition. Hope that helps!

Really enjoying the rather long line of comparisons used to point out unique aspects. One name that I did not hear that seems to have some "this is unique" personality: black crows SERPO. What's your take on similarities and differences amongst the two? Tx! (excellent video, by the way - your videos have come a really long way in just a year's time)
@SkiEssentials
@SkiEssentials 2 жыл бұрын
Hey Curtis! Thanks! Actually, I would say the Serpo is a relatively similar ski. The difference there is I do think the Serpo feels like it pulls you into a turn more. It's not as straight through the shovel as the Maverick. That makes it feel more responsive on a groomer, but you do loose some of the off-piste versatility of the Maverick, IMO.

I have not skied any of these. Guessing maverick is better on carving and higher speeds with the metal underfoot. BC a little lighter and nimble and softer for trees and bumps. BC also has more rocker and horizon in tail. So groomers = maverick, trees/bumps/park = BC. But both have a lot of overlap.
@SkiEssentials
@SkiEssentials 2 жыл бұрын
Basically everything Curtis said holds true. The Maverick has more vibration damping, better edge grip, and is more responsive when carving. On the other side of the spectrum, the Bent Chetler is more playful. It has a bouncy, fun feel. The Maverick shares some of that, but the BC is noticeably looser and more playful in off-piste terrain, softer snow, etc. Also as Curtis mentioned, there's certainly some overlap. Even more overlap with the Maverick 100 and BC 100.

Vast majority of skiers are unable to develop sufficient edge angle on a 95mm underfoot width…even these guys who are good skiers tend to hop their turns especially on his right footers trying to go left. Stay in the 80’s max and use a softer ski if you live in powder area and spend time in back country.

Similar feel and spot on the product line, but while the CTi used a mesh of carbon and Titanal, the Mav 95 uses two full sheets and no carbon. I think it gives it a less-pingy feel than the CTi, which was a similar ripping ski.

Hey Guys, Great review as always. I've decided to keep my Bonafide 187's & Dalbello Lupo 130's for hard charging days. Looking for 50/50 or 70/30 set up for touring, powder, trees & bumps. Atomic Maverick 95 or 100, Head Kore 95 or 105, Nordica Enfocer 94 or 100 Unlimited. How about durability? Shift binding and Tecnica Peak Carbon Pro boots. Question re the boots: Can you swap the liner for an Intuition?

I'm a huge fan of the Maverick 95 or Kore 93 for that application. Light, still stiff and responsive, and very precise. Both seem to hold up well, and if you go with the 2023 Kore, it's more durable than before. I'd be careful about swapping liners in the tour-specific boots--likely not going to happen. Have fun! SE

Hi guys, great video. I noticed in the Atomic BC100 video you mentioned that you could stick a Shift binding on the BC100. For a 75/25 In-bound/out- use, would the 95Ti be a good set up? Or would the weight be prohibitive? Also how does its length differ riding between the 180 and the 188?
@SkiEssentials
@SkiEssentials 2 жыл бұрын
It is not a weight prohibitive ski. At around 1800 grams, it's one of the lighter skis with metal in it, and it makes a lot of sense for a touring ski, especially one that you're using for in-bounds touring. the 180's slightly shorter turn radius make it feel a bit hookier/snappier than the 188's, which feel smoother at speed for sure.

I'm looking for something that would work well in Tahoe and I am 6' and likely 220+. Love going fast but I also want something relatively agile so I can handle some trees and moguls. I feel like I've narrowed my choices to these Mavericks or the Elan Ripstick 96 Blacks. Any idea what could be the better fit or if there are any other skis I should consider instead?

Volkl M6 (I'd suggest the 184 length) would be worth a good look. I'm around your size and have the M5 in my quiver; it's very stable at high speed but the rocker profile (long and low) makes it super easy to pivot around when you keep the bases flat. Lets you charge when you want to while still being maneuverable in bumps/trees. If you value stability at speed it might be just what you're after

Hey Neil! I think both the Ripstick 96 Black or Maverick 95 would be perfectly reasonable choices. Great versatility for Tahoe terrain. Both can handle speed, but both are agile in trees and bumps too. You might not get the raw power of the M6 that Steven brought up, but you will gain more versatility. You'll get a little more stability out of the Ripstick Black over the Maverick, but the Maverick is the quickest and most agile in that grouping.

Gosh they're both great choices. Neither one is too hard to ski, but they both have very high performance ceilings. I would say the Ripstick is probably a little easier just because it has a softer longitudinal flex pattern, but that's a marginal difference in approachability. Better way to decide between the two would be to focus on how they feel. The Ripstick feel a little more playful, more bouncy, Mavericks feels more responsive and more precise, quicker too because of the increased responsiveness. They're still playful too, just in a different way. Hope that helps!

Hey Paul! Realistically, they feel very similar. I think the best way to think about it is how often you're skiing off-piste or off trail. If you're skiing off groomed snow more than 50% of your time, I think the 100 is the way to go. If you're more like 50/50 or less, the Maverick 95 is a superior carving ski just with its quickness edge to edge and slightly more torsional stiffness. The 100 has a little more float and easier edge release just due to the increased surface area. Hope that helps!

I find the Maverick more versatile and more playful overall than the Ranger 92 Ti. Similar capabilities between those two skis, the Ranger just does it with a little more precision, while the Maverick allows for easier maneuverability in tight terrain and softer snow without sacrificing too much on trail precision. I actually find the Maverick 95 Ti is a very similar ski to the new Ranger 96 from Fischer.

Hi Emil! Yes, the Maverick 95 Ti is somewhere in between the Sky 7 and M5. it probably leans a little more towards the M5, but it's certainly easier to maneuver and smear than the M5. It actually sounds like it would be a fantastic ski for you, although I might consider bumping up to the 100 just given your breakdown of 70/30 powder/resort. 100 floats better and you don't sacrifice that much on trail performance.

Hello! The Maverick is the better tree ski. Feels light on your feet and has more rocker and taper than the Stormrider, which makes it feel quicker when you're linking short pivoted turns.

Smoother too, more vibration damping, but I do think the Maverick is a more versatile (and more playful) ski.

Please tell me, which length of skis (Mavericks 95ti) to choose, if my height is 179 cm, weight is 70 kg, and the level of skiing is average and higher. I spend more time on a prepared slope, sometimes I drive into the forest and bumps

I would go with the 172 in that ski--it's a stable ski so you can be a bit more comfortable with a slightly shorter length.

How does these compare to Rustler 9 and Head Kore 93?

It's actually kind of right in between those two skis in overall performance. The Rustler is heavier and with more vibration damping, the Kore is lighter and more reactive. The Maverick has a nice blend of both of those things. Very well-rounded ski. Not the strongest, not the lightest, but an excellent blend of feeling light and maneuverable while also being relatively strong and smooth.

6'3" 230lbs; residual athletic strength and some remaining quickness; gave up telemark 3 seasons ago, basketball last year Would this be a good option to get slightly more top end in carving, speed and hard snow performance over my enforcer 104frees without going as far as an m6 mantra, which I loved demoing for the carving of but kicked my @#$@ in the trees and ungroomed. Also considering Rustler 9 and Stormrider 95. Would either of those two, the Maverick 95s or other give me the best chance to lock in more on groomers while being slightly more nimble and forgiving than the mantras, especially in the trees?

I think you're on the right track with the Stormrider and Maverick. Rustler is a bit too freeride-y. Stockli quality and precision oozes out of the ski like the money out of your wallet. If you can swing the cash, go with Stockli, but for a bit of a discount, the Maverick is a fantastic ski.

Hey how would you compare these skis to Atomic Redster S9 Servotec skis ?

Whereas the S9 is far more of a slalom-based ski that excels in short turns with endless edge grip, the Maverick is decidedly more all-mountain. The width, combined with the tip and tail rocker make the Maverick quite a bit more versatile and well-rounded in a variety of conditions and terrain. If you're looking for short carves with endless grip and stability, go S9, but for a true all-mountain experience, the Maverick is phenomenal.

Can I tour with these?
@SkiEssentials
@SkiEssentials Жыл бұрын
Sure can! As one of the lighter skis with two sheets of metal, it certainly blurs that line between being tour-capable an downhill-rippable.

@@SkiEssentials Awesome thank you so much.. As beginners who's never skied before, my woman and I was looking for a good ski that can pretty much do it all so we wouldn't have to buy another pair in the future. I think these may be the ones unless you could suggest something that is better if there is an all around better versatile ski out there that is.
