2026 Atomic Maverick 96 CTI Skis
The all-new 2026 Atomic Maverick 96 CTi steps into the Maverick lineup to replace the outgoing Maverick 95 Ti. For 2026, Atomic has incorporated the versatility and soft snow performance of the wider Maverick 105 CTi to create a more refined and friendlier 96 CTi. Featuring a softer shovel and added carbon, this ski is well suited for all-mountain exploration and offers improved agility in trees, bumps, and technical terrain compared to its predecessor.
Why we like it:
The Maverick 96 CTi bring quite a bit of added soft snow performance to the table for 2026, and we really like how quick and agile the new ski is.
Who it's for:
The 96 CTi is a friendly ski that’s easy to get along with – that said, it’s best for advancing intermediate skiers on up to experts thanks to it’s emphasis on soft snow and off trail performance.
Highlights:
All the tech from last year’s well-received Maverick 105 CTi trickles down the the narrower skis in the Maverick lineup, and the 96 CTi benefits from better soft snow handling and a more responsive, intuitive ride. These enhancements are largely due to the widened and softened HRZN 3D tips, which make turning and floating in softer conditions much easier, as well as a reworked profile with more tail rocker for added quickness in powder. The swap to a denser wood core and the inclusion of carbon adds energy and suppleness to the ski’s flex profile, resulting in a lively yet accessible feel that appeals to a broader spectrum of skiers.
Things to consider:
Aggressive skiers who are precise and powerful will find the limit on the Maverick 96 CTi on groomed terrain, as the softer shovel tends to chatter a bit at very high speeds. This ski favors quick, short-to-medium length turns over long, fast GS-style turns.
Fit & sizing considerations:
These skis run true to size and should be chosen based on a skier’s height, weight, terrain preference, and skiing style.
