SKI TEST 2025/26: four all-round skis selected for you!

While in the higher Allround Performance category we had two "Gold Medals" in the Allround Tourism category, there is no single model that stands head and shoulders above all the others. Instead, we found four skis with excellent results, each with its own distinctive feature.

In the women’s all-round tourism segment, the Head Power Joy stands out, awarded the Gold Medal as the Testers’ Choice and best product for female skiers. It is both stable and precise, while remaining well suited to female skiers and their physical characteristics.

Also worthy of mention and winner of the "Testers’ Choice" award is the Fischer RC4 ST LYT, which stands out for being solid, structured and highly manoeuvrable, but above all for its excellent performance in medium-radius turns at medium speed—the bread and butter of an all-round ski.

In the unisex category, meanwhile, we are awarding the Rossignol Forza 60 TI thanks to its spectacular carving performance in this category. It is a product aimed at the modern skier, designed to be skied primarily on edge in search of the perfect edge angle and turn. Its structure is not excessively stiff, allowing for some truly impressive angulation!

Alongside the Rossignol, we find the award-winning Völkl Racetiger RC, the German brand’s workhorse in this category. It is an easy ski that makes a great impression from the very first run: light but never lacking substance, it makes skiing easier and helps skiers improve their technique. It is awarded for its comfort—the best in the category!
