Overview
The Atomic Maverick 115 CTI is a dedicated big-mountain powder ski for deep snow, open faces and skiers who want a wide platform that can still be pushed. Its 115 mm waist, Powder Rocker and HRZN 3D tip are aimed at float and manoeuvrability rather than everyday piste work. SkiEssentials' 2027 test calls it a specific tool for aggressive skiing and bigger terrain, with a new colour for the season and structural carryover.
The CTI Powered construction blends carbon and titanal with an ash and poplar Power Woodcore, giving the broad ski more torsional support and vibration control than a simple soft powder ski. Rocker at both ends and the tapered outline help it smear and pivot in deep snow; the light published reference weight keeps it mobile. SkiEssentials testers describe a surfy, progressive feel and strong float, but also a directional ski that can feel long and less nimble than softer alternatives.
Choose it for big, open powder and freeride lines where stability and float matter more than quick edge changes. Advanced and expert skiers are the appropriate audience because of the width and long running feel. It can work in trees when the snow is soft, but a 105 CTI is easier to manoeuvre for ordinary resort powder, and a narrower ski is more precise on firm snow. This is a focused powder tool, not a one-ski resort default.
Construction & features
What the MAVERICK 115 CTI is built from, and what that means on snow.
- 01
CTI Powered
A carbon-and-titanal reinforcement system adds torsional support and a rounder, more consistent flex for stability and power.
- 02
Power Woodcore
Ash and poplar in the wood core add strength and help absorb vibration.
- 03
Powder Rocker 30/50/20
The 30/50/20 profile uses substantial tip and tail rocker around camber underfoot for flotation and release in deep snow.
- 04
HRZN 3D tip
Three-dimensional tip shaping increases surface area to help the wide ski plane and turn in soft snow.
- 05
Dura Cap Sidewall
Full-height sidewalls transfer pressure to the steel edges. The rounded upper edge helps protect the ski against damage.
- 06
Skis only — bindings sold separately
The flat ski is supplied without bindings; reference weight excludes bindings.
