Alpine Ski 2007/2008
Alpine Ladies Performance

Ladies skis are not just a paint job or a different binding mounting position any more. These skis have been engineered to help a woman's different physical shape be more at ease on the ski and through out the turn. These skis are generally lighter weight, they have a more forgiving tip section, some have entirely different side cuts than the men's, and do have different binding mounting positions. This group contains ski especially designed for the high performance and technically proficient female skiers or those who hope to get to this level. The choices vary for different terrains. If you are a female high performance skier or racer there are some skis in the unisex groups that will ski very well in the shorter sizes.

K2 T-Nine Burnin Luv footprint - 115-68-99

Vertical Drop Staff: Praised for its extraordinary performance year after year, the Burnin' Luv continues to be an all-mountain favorite for expert-level women. Built mainly for ripping groomers, this ski will also perform surprisingly well in the crud. Include metal laminate and an agile sidecut, and you are guaranteed power and quickness.
Nordica Olympia Victory footprint - 119-74-104

Vertical Drop Staff: All-mountain expert women will love the VICTORY when charging the hard packed, but still feel comfortable in the day old crud or the occasional powder day with a wide tip and tail.

Fischer Vapor footprint - 118-76-102

Vertical Drop Staff: With every tech highlight imagnable the versatile Vapor is dressed to impress. The 50% lighter Vision FlowFlex allows for the easiest turns and best edge-hold. The Vision Vapor is the big league choice for girls going east to west, hard pack to soft.
Rossignol B2W footprint - 116-78-105

Vertical Drop Staff: This ski has been a staff favorite for years because of its great all mountain ride and the fact that it skis bumps really well. The new version does not disappoint but we bought some of the old models to give you a really good deal while they last. The best bump ski we have ever carried.
