How the Mavericks can have power yet also be light - because they demand almost perfect weight distribution otherwise they can be unforgiving. The shovel is light for powder, the tail is heavier for power! It's a cool ski in that it truly does do a lot and it's fun. The tradeoff for this versatility is that you need to have your balance in check at all times or else the those tails will throw you off the back. It's nice overall because this makes you a better skier. Also very intuitive and fun ski at slightly slower speeds.
The 100 is a great ski, it's pretty much a Backland 100 with more camber and rocker and 2 sheets of metal. My only complaint is the fact that both my backland and maverick delaminated under the binding. I charge a lot of time, but I'm 6' 1" 155lbs and don't expect my skis to fail after 20~ days on them. They are both being warranted, but that means no Tuckerman's for me this year.
Love the 95 ti. I have skied many all mountain skis in the 85 to 95 mm range. The Maverick 95ti is the closest thing to a "1 ski quiver " I've personally skied. Try it. I've been recommending it to all of my friends. They are quite light, but also plenty stable. The 2 thin sheets of metal are the right formula for all mountain ripping. I had a day in Tahoe where I skied; frozen groomers, soft groomers, bumps, glades, slush and even a little park. I never once thought I needed a different ski. (that rarely happens for me, I have numerous skis and like to use all of them!) My only complaint would be that it's too versatile. I wouldn't have a need for 3 more pairs of skis!!!😂🤣 Unless you're spending a lot of time in the park or powder, you won't be disappointed.
While we try not to recommend the same ski all of our friends, there are few cased for someone looking for a mid 90mm ski that the Makverick 95 is not a bad option.
Maverick 83 R is a high performance rental ski for Atomic. Soem shops might by extra to sell them on the retail wall. It will be an intermediate to light advance skier ski.
@@skitalkdotcom Okay thanks! I’ve been riding on pist my whole life but wanted to get into more off pist and park stuff would those be okay for the job? Also would these be a catastrophe in some powder or will the work okay? Im 5”11 and weight about 60 kgs
@@n0llanhey man did you ever ride those skis? I haven’t been skiing for a few years due to work and coronavirus and will probably rent them for my next trip. Maybe you can tell me how they felt ?

@@skitalkdotcom agreed. I recommend for them to try... not necessarily buy😉.
That's a very personal choice as we all know!
My local shop has a pair of Maverick 83 but I can’t find any info about them on atomics site or any yt video. Do anyone know why?

But a commercial doesn’t tell me what a ski does.
Designed in North America .. not just USA .. why do all Americans think they’re alone
