Director Ben Clark carefully curated archival footage of Nelson’s vision starting back from 1999. “I obsessed over this line for nearly two decades and finally, in 2017 with Jim Morrison and Chris Figenshau, we successfully climbed and skied this 21,165 foot behemoth,” Nelson posted on Facebook. Are the Himalayas an Untapped Gold Mine for Powder Skiing? Papsura, one of a pair of Indian Himalayan Peaks, is referred to as “The Peak of Evil,” and the short film illustrates just how perilous it is to summit. Nelson needed to commit to the line she would ski without hesitation. The film originally premiered at the Aspen Mountain Film Festival in 2019. Watch The Line Between Good and Evil in its entirety above.
Powder Magazineflipped into Powder Magazine Videos0:53The Best Powder Skis of 2021Powder Magazine - POWDER(Click on the ski to skip down to its review) 4FRNT Hoji CC (W) BLIZZARD Rustler 11 BLACK CROWS Anima BLACK DIAMOND Boundary Pro 115 MOMENT Wildcat FACTION Prodigy 4.0 ICELANTIC Saba Pro J SKIS The Friend DYNASTAR M-Free 118 D: 129-112-120 mm R: 30m The adjective we heard the most to describe the 4FRNT Hoji CC was “poppy” the second was “intuitive,” and overall the ski felt fun and easy to understand The Hoji CC has what 4FRNT call ReflectTech, which means the camber and side cut reflect each other, and when you turn the edge stays in contact, and the turn radius changes with your turn shape. We saw that design feature in a few pairs of skis this year, and it made a difference in how the ski hooked up and engaged in variable snow. Eric “Hoji” Hjorleifson initially designed the ski—hence the name—but then 4FRNT pushed it over to their women’s team, to adjust the shape for skiers with lower centers of gravity and people who get their power from their hips. As someone who has been called out for having childbearing hips, I can’t say I noticed a significant difference, but testers who don’t normally like a rockered ski, like modern elder Jooles LoVecchio, said they were surprised at how much they liked it, and how fun it was. It’s probably not your ski if you exclusively ski hardpack, but in softer snow it feels like the surface springs up to meet your skis, creating energy out of every turn. —Heather Hansman D: 142-114-132mm R: 21m Need for speed? Ski the Rustler 11. “I tried to find the speed limit, which is the spot where the ski wants to quit before my body and mind do. This ski does not have that limit,” says very fast skier Spencer Harkins. But, unlike some point-it-and-go-planks, the Rustler 11 is not a one-trick racehorse. The Union found it rails turns and isn’t locked into a single turn shape. For a stable stiff ski, it’s playful and particularly fun in chop, and still floats in deep snow. You’ll have to work to get it around in tight trees, and it might not be your favorite bump ski, but who wants to ski bumps when there are wide-open snowfields to slash and groomers to charge? D:147-115-136mm R: 19m The Anima is really easy to ski and doesn’t demand much of the driver, but that doesn’t mean it’s a wet noodle. For a wide ski, it’s super sturdy when moving Mach 2 down the hill, and relatively easy to lay an edge for wide, sweeping turns across open faces. Deep rocker in the tip and tail allow the Anima to pivot through tight spaces well, and the poplar wood …
