Not everyone needs a 104 or a 110 every day, but there's a strong argument to be made that you could certainly use the 94 any time you want. Whether you don't mind the feeling of sinking into the snow or you prefer a lighter and more maneuverable ski on your feet for long-term skiing and cruising, there's a little something for everyone with the Pandora 94 from Line. With a similar build but a different graphic versus the men's Sick Day line, the Pandora collection features shorter lengths and more mythical artwork. The Aspenlite wood core is combined with their carbon magic fingers to increase stiffness without adding much weight. The result is a fairly responsive ski with a minimum of bulk. Coming in at a pretty slim 1491 grams per ski, these things are quick and fun for all-mountain and all-terrain use. Steeps, bumps, trees, whatever, these Pandora 94's have versatility galore-perfect for those skiers looking for that one-ski quiver. Feel free to point the tips right into the next mogul or lean back a bit and enjoy the floaty tips in the powder, it's all about having fun, and the Pandora 94 is just the tool for the job.

As a professional skier, Hadley Hammer has gotten her chance to be on a fair number of skis. While something like the Pandora 94 wouldn't be a competitive option for her, it's still something that she can have a lot of fun on during the in-between times. She skis the 172 and scored the ski all 4's and 5's including a 5 for overall impression. She states about the ski that it is "my go-to all-condition ski touring ski. When I'm not sure if it'll be hardpack or corn (for powder days I'd bump up to the 104 or 110). It's so nimble and playful which I think makes it extremely versatile. I'll ski a narrow couloir and feel comfortable being able to make quick reaction turns, or I'll take it on-piste and be able to go from carving groomers to playing with the side hits of the cat tracks."

Alli Ruschp skied the 165 and noted it was a good size for her. She scored the ski 3’s out of 5 for forgiveness, playfulness, and stability, with top scores of 5 for versatility, overall impression, quickness, and maneuverability. Alli notes that “these Pandora 94’s had a lot in the tank. They didn’t stand out in one way or another, but just a general overall feeling of snappiness and confidence make these really fun and easy skis. They’re very intuitive, and that’s something I like in a ski, so it makes a lot of sense that these will be great, versatile, all-mountain skis for a lot of different lady skiers.” Like most mid-90's skis, the Pandora 94 will make a great one-ski quiver choice.


For a lot of different reasons and applications, the Line Pandora 94 is a very solid choice for an all-mountain ski. From steeps and trees to bumps and groomers, these skis have a lot to offer a wide range of skiers and skier types. Thanks to Line’s commitment to making fun and creative products, there’s a lot to like about the Pandora 94.
