NEW! Here's an all-mountain twin, which sounds like a reasonable sub-category to us. As the freestyle skis are becoming more than just piste skis with a bendy bit at the back, the people who like the idea of a twin (and who wouldn't? Skiing switch - backwards - was invented to make pistes fun again). For the price, these offer great all-round performance. For about another 100 quid this ski still offers a good deal - we'd class the Panic as the bargain of the year. It's more of a swooper than a wriggler, but that's what most people do, most of the time, and the accessible flex makes it very easy off-piste.
