Maverick 86 C R Ski + M 10 GW - 2026

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"This ski is ideal for skiers who want something light, stable, and easy to control. I’ve put beginners and intermediate riders on the Maverick 86 C R and they immediately feel more confident. The carbon backbone makes the ski lively but not twitchy, and it holds an edge surprisingly well on hardpack."

From early groomer laps to chopped-up afternoon cruisers, the Atomic Maverick 86 C R Ski + M 10 GW system is built to make every turn smooth and intuitive. Its balanced mid-width design and OMatic Construction—featuring wood, carbon, and fiberglass—deliver the ideal blend of lightweight agility and dependable edge hold. Whether we're getting our carving legs back or dialing into all-mountain confidence, the Maverick 86 C R has the tools to help us level up.

A Flow Profile shape combines camber and rocker for just the right mix of control and float, while the Carbon Backbone gives the ski stability without adding weight. The Light Woodcore keeps it responsive and nimble underfoot, while upgraded features like metal tip protectors and a structured topsheet improve durability for season-long use. Paired with M 10 GW bindings, this setup is ready to go from day one—easy to step into, easy to love.
