Bomber Ski Pro-Terrain Crystal 84
This ski season, demand more from your skis. Bomber’s new ultra high-performance Pro-Terrain Crystal 84 limited-edition skis are engineered, measured, cut, and hand-assembled in Bomber’s factory in Italy, with a level of quality and precision that cannot be matched by mass-produced equipment. A seamless fusion of design, engineering, and craftsmanship, each ski is crafted with twenty layers of materials, compressed in a metal sandwich construction, which includes poplar and ash wood, and a ‘Crystal’ topsheet which increases torsional rigidity for a balanced and stable ride. The Pro-Terrain Crystal features Bomber’s proprietary 3D geometric ‘Flex Channel’, initiating turns effortlessly and intuitively, with remarkable responsiveness to spring you into your next turn, enhancing your entire ski experience. Anti-vibration silver-plated brass nickel targets at the tip and tail deliver unwavering stability at high speed, intensifying edge-grip and power. Each ski is embedded with an NFC chip, to confirm authenticity, tuning specifications and to store personal information. The Pro-Terrain Crystal is a versatile carver for intermediates and experts that excels across all terrains and conditions, enabling skiers to ski with confidence and control, and the freedom to explore beyond.
Glashütte OriginalGlashütte Original PanoMaticLunar Anniversary Edition
Glashütte Original celebrates 180 years of watchmaking in its tiny German hometown with this stunning rendition of one of its most recognizable models. This platinum-cased take on the PanoMaticLunar is, somewhat shockingly, the first Glashütte Original watch to ever feature an aventurine dial. As it turns out, the dark blue, copper-flecked glass is the perfect starry backdrop for the watch’s trademark asymmetric dial and moonphase complication, and it might just make for the coolest-ever version of an already very cool watch.
AmazonAmazon Echo Studio and Echo Dot Max (2025)
Amazon announced two new smart speakers at its big hardware event this year: the Echo Studio and the Echo Dot Max. The Echo Studio, which has been Amazon’s biggest and beefiest speaker for several years, has been completely redesigned with a new look and new drivers; it’s also roughly 40 percent smaller than its predecessor. The Echo Dot Max shares a similar new design, featuring a 3D knit fabric and a front-facing light ring with on-device controls, but it is roughly half the size of the new Echo Studio.
Pabst Blue RibbonPabst Blue Ribbon x Godzilla 70th Anniversary Collaboration
It’s Big G’s 70th birthday this year. To celebrate this kaiju-sized anniversary, Toho and Pabst Blue Ribbon have collaborated on a collection of specialty Godzilla-themed beer cans and cases. The collection spans both 12-ounce cans — which feature Godzilla artwork from Cuban-American artist Attack Peter — and 25-ounce ones — with art also featuring Godzilla, alongside a trio of the giant lizard’s contemporaries (Mechagodzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah). They should be hitting shelves in stores near you anytime now.
OuraOura Ring 4 Ceramic
The newest entry to Oura’s lineup of wearables is a head-turner, thanks to its eye-catching new material. Constructed with high-performance zirconia ceramic, which takes well to color, the new Ring 4 Ceramic is now available in four intriguing hues: “Petal,” “Tide,” “Cloud” and “Midnight.” Aside from its aesthetic enhancements, the Ring 4 Ceramic also features a new charging system that allows wearers to switch between rings, without losing any data. At $499 each, it’s hard to imagine buying multiple colors, but the capability to switch with ease is convenient for those who will partake.
