The G Force Sonic IQ does exactly what we said about the Viva G Pro, but takes it up to weighter male folk. Testers went for the grip, the smooth transition into turns, the grip, the overall smooth ride and also, it seems, the grip. Blizzard didn't quite get the piste ski of the year, but they deserve an honorary piste manufacturer of the year award for their consistent brilliance throughout the range.
