2027 Liberty Horizon 92 Skis

Women who want one ski for groomers, bumps, and the occasional powder morning will find plenty to like in the Liberty Horizon 92. This low-nineties women's all-mountain ski is built around a bamboo-reinforced wood core, a strip of titanal placed right underfoot, and compliant tips and tails capped by a wide, spoon-shaped shovel. That combination grips confidently when the snow firms up while staying light and easy to steer, so the ski never asks for more effort than you want to give.

Why we like it:

The variable titanal approach is smart: Liberty puts metal underfoot where edge hold matters and leaves it out of the tips and tails, so you get a damp, planted feel at the binding without a heavy, hard-to-turn ski. We also like the spoon-shaped shovel, which looks a little unusual on the rack and pays off in how easily the tip rolls into a turn.

Who it's for:

Progressing intermediates and advanced women who ski the whole mountain at moderate to brisk speeds will feel at home on the Horizon 92. It suits skiers who split the day between groomers, mogul runs, and soft snow off the side of the trail, and who want a light, approachable ski that still bites when conditions get firm. Anyone upgrading from an older, narrower ski will find it a natural next step.

Highlights:

Start with the shovel. The Horizon 92 has a noticeably wide, slightly spoon-shaped tip that helps it plane up in soft snow and pulls the ski into a turn with very little input, and a 14.5 meter radius at the 159 cm length keeps those turns short and easy to link. Under the topsheet, Liberty's Precision Core mixes poplar, ash, and bamboo, with the bamboo running tip to tail; it's a Liberty signature material that stores energy through the turn and hands it back smoothly rather than with a sudden kick. Variable titanal sits underfoot for edge grip and damping, carbon reinforcement adds a little liveliness, and the tips and tails stay compliant so the ski forgives a late or slightly sloppy turn. A half-cap build with ABS sidewall underfoot trims weight while adding durability, and the Rocker/Camber/Rocker profile gives you camber for grip with rocker at both ends for easier pivoting in bumps and trees. It's European-made, light for its width, and built to be fun rather than demanding.

Things to consider:

The light build is a big part of the Horizon 92's charm, but it also means the ski can get bounced around in heavy, chopped-up snow at higher speeds. Skiers who want more width and stability for soft-snow days should look at the Horizon 100, while those after a narrower, more frontside-focused option can step down to the Horizon 87.

Fit & sizing considerations:

The Horizon 92 sizes true to length, with a run from 145 to 167 cm. Most skiers should pick their usual all-mountain length; drop a size if you spend a lot of time in bumps and tight trees, or go up a size if you want more float and stability at speed.
