2025 Liberty Horizon 92

Liberty is embarking on a brand revamp this season and through the various changes, from production facilities to materials and molds, we’re getting two new women’s skis. Showcasing innovation and performance, the Horizon 92 combines agility and power in a forgiving yet powerful build. A standalone model, this all-mountain ski features exceptional edge grip thanks to the added metal underfoot and maintains a smooth, damp feel that provides control and precision. Designed for skilled skiers who want a high-performance ceiling but enough mobility to broaden the capabilities, strong carving capabilities are equally matched by lively responsiveness.

We get a pretty refined build with this ski, taking inspiration from proven technology from previous models in the Liberty line. With Liberty’s recent production changes, we’re seeing a move away from the use of bamboo in the core and towards a mix of poplar and ash. While we see ash wood used in heavier skis given its density level, it is applied in thinner layers of stringers, contributing plenty of strength without tipping the scale. Poplar does a lot of the heavy lifting as far as agility and energy go, balancing out the power with playfulness. While Liberty stopped there for core materials with the new Scope 94 W, they went on to add carbon fiber, as well as variable metal technology as opposed to vertical metal technology. Now applied in a horizontal format, the titanal is full width underfoot and tapers proportionally along the length of the core. This allows the ski to flex in the tip and tail better while remaining powerful and sturdy underfoot. Speaking to the agile nature given the build, Tester Lauren Reed found them to be “very light and playful”. This is interesting given the amount of metal, showing Liberty’s ability to provide strength and agility.

From a shaping perspective, we’re still staying pretty squarely in the all-mountain category. While the full width metal and camber underfoot provides impressively strong edge grip, the rest of the ski invites a different type of performance. The 92 mm waist width is bookended by 130 mm tip and 116 mm tail, with the 167 cm length generating a 15.5-meter turn radius. The wider shovel combined with rocker profile invites easy turn initiation and flotation while the narrower tail remains energetic and precise. Capable of making a variety of turn shapes and styles, the extremities feel playful and responsive, leaving the midsection strong and stable.

This new Liberty ski is sure to appeal to a wide audience of skiers, ranging from advanced intermediates to experts. A sophisticated build that blends energy with power keeps it accessible enough to enjoy without working too hard but if tested, it will rise to the occasion. Skiers who like to bend and flex a ski with ease but remain planted on firmer snow conditions will enjoy the overall character and capabilities of the Horizon 92.
