Split Ski -- ZAI Nezza Ski: inspired by old-school fin-tailed snowboards, the ZAI Nezza Ski -- with its gaping holes and split tails -- looks equal parts brilliant and bonkers. The cedar-wood core and carbon skin provide strength and spring, and the four split tails flex independently, reducing vibrations even on packed ice.
Cost: £7,000.
