Line has made a few tweaks to the Supernatural 92 for the new season, most notably in the shape of the sidecut due to widening the nose and tail from previous models, while a slight stiffening of the tail helps to whip you out of turns.

The ski remains rock solid in ride and design thanks to its Maple Macroblock core, which in Line speak is two maple wood stringers surrounded by aspen that give you a huge amount of energy and liveliness.

Added to the construction mix is a sheet of titanal, damping vibrations and adding power and grip for when you want to charge it on piste or chunk your way through choppy snow.

Despite great stability the Supernatural 92 is still an agile ski and is nice to throw around from side to side, while there's a welcome amount of float when the fresh stuff comes floating down.

The 92 used to be the baby of the Supernatural range and there are still three versions with a wider waist - the 100, 108, 115 - if your leanings are more to the off piste than groomers.

But Line has also introduced an 86 width underfoot this season, which now becomes the most piste-orientated of the options available.

If you loved a previous incarnation of the Supernatural 92 and used it mostly on piste, then it's worth considering the 86 if you're in the market for an upgrade. The 2017 version of the 92 will still suit you fine, but it is likely to attract even more fans for its all-round versatility.
