To get the most out of the time you spend on the snow, you need a good pair of skis. For a long time, women and men have used the same skis, which was not optimal for female skiers. Manufacturers have recognized this problem and nowadays the best women\u2019s skis are perfectly tailored for female users. Of course, we\u2019re not talking about cosmetics here, but rather actual construction differences.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Compared to men, women have a different physique, stance, center of gravity, and movement. To get the ski to perform how you want, it needs to adapt to this by adjusting length, weight, flexibility, and a few other things. Our buying guide will explain all of this and help you select a great new pair of skis. But first, check out our women\u2019s skis reviews with three models that have really impressed us and gained quite a reputation among female skiers.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]        <div class=\"skinset-background  \">\n        <div class=\"product-feature type_list\">\n        <div class=\"row\">\n\n\t\t   \n\n<div class=\"item-list vc_col-sm-12 amazon_full_view\">\t\n\t<div class=\"vc_row-o-content-middle\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">\n{\n  \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n  \"@type\": \"Product\",\n  \"mainEntityOfPage\": {\n    \"@type\": \"WebPage\",\n    \"@id\": \"https:\/\/www.globosurfer.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74782\"\n  },\n  \"brand\": {\n    \"@type\": \"Brand\",\n    \"name\": \"Blizzard Black Pearl 88\"\n  },\n  \"image\": \"\",\n  \"description\": \"The Black Pearl 88 from Blizzard is a true women\u2019s ski, designed by experienced female skiers who know the challenges that women\u2019s skis need to overcome.

This ski is a real worker \u2013 able to handle groomers, crud, bumps, and powder equally well. It\u2019s no wonder then that these have been among the top rated all mountain skis for women for a very long time.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The secret behind this model is its women-specific design with a Carbon Flipcore (carbon fiber in the tails and tips stabilizes the rockers). This gives the skis improved precision and gives you a smooth ride. This model has camber underfoot with rockers at both the tip and the tail. It helps the ski have a better grip when turning, but also allows it to float efficiently in deeper snow.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can consider this model a tight-turning ski, with a sidecut radius of about 13 meters. Skiers agree that these are really quick and hold an edge well even when going over bumps. The reason for this is the mentioned carbon frame that has the ability to dampen the hit and give you full control at any time.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is an exciting ski that guarantees plenty of fun on the snow. However, it\u2019s construction and design place it among women\u2019s intermediate skis (and even advanced), so they may not be a good choice if you\u2019re a total beginner. For new skiers, our two other models will be a better fit. As for the Black Pearl 88, it easily ranks among the best all mountain skis for women in terms of construction, performance, and the overall feel when riding.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n                 <\/div>\n            <\/div> \n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"row\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"vc_col-md-6\">\n\t\t\t   <div

a look at the Alpina Control 60 Cross Country package. In addition to the excellent Alpina Control 60 skis, this bundle also includes bindings, boots, as well as ski poles. This is a waxless ski, meaning that it\u2019s ready to hit the slopes immediately and requires less maintenance than a regular ski.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This model would classify as a very narrow ski, which is perfectly normal for a cross-country ski. Despite this, the Control 60 is perfectly suited for beginners. It gives great stability and a good glide, regardless of the terrain. It has an early-rise tip that helps the ski stay on the snow, so it\u2019s easy to float even in areas with deeper snow.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">One of the great things about this ski is that it uses a Lite Air core making it incredibly light on your feet. Alpina offers you a nice choice when it comes to lengths too, ranging from 170 to 200cm. This model is equipped with Rottefella step-in automatic binding system that is very easy to use. Of course, the boots (Alpina T5 Eve) and poles (Swix ST102) you get are appropriate for your foot size and height.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Overall, these skis work really well and make a great choice for people who spend plenty of time both on and off the track. The handling is great at lower speeds, so beginners will feel really good using them. These are some of the best women\u2019s skis in terms of value for money because you get the full package and not just the skis themselves.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

Atomic Vantage X is the perfect choice. This all-mountain ski offers the perfect balance of stability and agility, making it really enjoyable to ride. While it\u2019s able to conquer almost any terrain, the Vantage X really shines on a piste.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The core of this ski is made of Densolite composite which, in combination with the Carbon mesh construction, makes the ski incredibly light. But don\u2019t mistake it for soft \u2013 the Exo profile cuts add stiffness to its structure. As for the profile, it has a camber middle with a tip rocker that allows it to make turns better. Because of this versatility, these are great skis for intermediate female skiers too.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Vantage X skis are exceptionally damp, meaning that they efficiently absorb shocks and vibrations (results in a smoother ride). An additional benefit is that these come with pre-installed bindings (Lithium 10), so they are ready to use out of the box. Overall, it\u2019s one of the best all mountain skis for women who want to raise their confidence level on the snow and have some fun along the way.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n                 <\/div>\n            <\/div> \n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"row\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"vc_col-md-6\">\n\t\t\t   <div

manufacturing has advanced significantly over the years, resulting in plenty of models that are truly designed for women (not just a softer version of men\u2019s skis). Female skiers are, on average, shorter, weigh less, have smaller feet, and a lower center of gravity. When buying a ski, all of these factors need to be taken into consideration.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A women\u2019s ski aims to adapt to these differences. Regardless of the type of skiing you\u2019ll take part in, choosing a pair of skis that are designed for your body (instead of a unisex model) can really make a difference. Take a look.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Length<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Because women are usually shorter than men, women\u2019s ski models also tend to be shorter. Still, they do come in many different lengths, and choosing the right one depends on your height, skill level, and the type of skiing. It\u2019s said that the length should be similar to your height so that the tip of the ski reaches somewhere between your chin and head top when the tail is planted in the snow. However, there can be some exceptions to this rule.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Generally speaking, <strong>shorter<\/strong> skis are easier to carve and control, but they are slower. On the other hand, <strong>longer<\/strong> skis will usually go faster, but beginners might have problems controlling them. You should go with a shorter ski if you\u2019re a beginner or want to improve your technique. A shorter ski might also be a good choice if you\u2019re lightweight for your height or you prefer making quick turns. A longer ski (relative to your height) is a good choice if you\u2019re an advanced skier who wants more speed or needs a reliable off-piste ski.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Width<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The width of the ski dictates its performance in many ways. Compared to standard unisex skis, women\u2019s skis are narrower. Because women weigh less, they don\u2019t require the ski to give them as much float on the snow, which allows for the ski waist to be reduced. Also, women have smaller feet, so a narrower ski allows them to get from edge to edge much easier when carving.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">When you look at the width of a particular ski, you\u2019ll see the measurements in three areas \u2013 at the tip, the waist, and the tail. Waist width is the most important because it determines how you catch an edge when turning and carving. <strong>Narrower<\/strong> skis (85 to 95mm) are better for carving groomed snow on the piste, while <strong>wider<\/strong> (110+mm) skis are better for deep powdery snow because they give a better float and stability in crud.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Women&#8217;s all mountain skis (95 to 110mm) are a jack of all trades, able to conquer corduroy, crud, ice, and deeper ungroomed snow. We also want to add that a wider ski tip helps improve float and makes turns easier, while a wider tail gives better stability in faster turns.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Weight<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Even though weight is not a crucial factor for women\u2019s skis (as people thought earlier), it\u2019s true that female skis have a lighter construction. Women weigh less than men, so a <strong>lighter<\/strong> ski allows you to control it better in most situations. Also, a lighter ski exerts less pressure on your legs and joints when turning, and you\u2019ll have an easier time carrying them when you take them off.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On the other hand, <strong>heavier<\/strong> skis stay on the snow better and have a better grip. They also have less bounce when you\u2019re going through crud and bumps, but require more strength to turn. In light of this, considering the weight of your skis before buying might help save you some energy when you hit the snow.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Stability and Speed<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Stability on the snow is very important, especially for beginners who have not yet mastered the proper technique. As we\u2019ve pointed out earlier, wider skis cover a larger surface on the snow, which results in better stability. It\u2019s also very important that the ski stays stable when making turns, otherwise you\u2019ll have a rough ride. This has to do with the flex of the ski, which we\u2019ll cover in the next section.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Because beginner skis are not really fast (no matter if they are men\u2019s or women\u2019s model), you might be one of the skiers who look for a faster ride on the snow. In that case, the Blizzard Black Pearl 88 might live up to your expectations \u2013 it\u2019s one of the best all mountain skis for women who seek a bit more excitement on the slopes. In addition to length, the construction of the ski (base, edges, sidewalls) also influences how fast the ski will be when you\u2019re going downhill.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Stiffness (Flex)<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The flex of the ski has a huge impact on the performance you\u2019ll be able to get on the snow. Both soft and firm skis have some advantages and disadvantages. For a long time manufacturers thought that all women\u2019s skis should be soft (they are easier to ride), but many advanced female skiers didn\u2019t like this because it limited their progress and what they could do on the snow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A <strong>soft<\/strong> ski has an excellent ability to absorb bumps and vibrations, which results in a much smoother and more stable ride. It is a great choice for inexperienced skiers because it corrects many beginner mistakes that novices make. This type of ski also gives you more control and requires less energy to maneuver.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On the other hand, some of the best women\u2019s skis for more advanced skiers are pretty <strong>stiff<\/strong>. While this does reduce stability to a degree, it also allows you to achieve a significantly higher speed when going downhill. However, many skiers choose to go with something in between. This is why most all-mountain skis have a <strong>medium<\/strong> flex, allowing them to stand up to any task you put before them.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Sidecut<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As you know, a ski is wider at the tip and the tail and narrower at the waist. This means that the side of the ski isn\u2019t flat, but that it\u2019s curved more or less inwards. This is called a sidecut and it\u2019s done to make turning easier (to allow the skis to make a curve when turning). If the side was flat, it would be pretty difficult to make a proper turn when carving the snow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In relation to this, the shape of the sidecut dictates the turning radius of the ski (the radius of an imaginary circle the skis would form when turning). Women\u2019s downhill skis that are longer and have a smaller sidecut will have a larger turning radius. Similarly, shorter skis with a larger cut have a smaller radius and turn faster. The turning radius usually measures somewhere between 11 and 20 meters (with some models going above and below these numbers).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Furthermore, this is also related to how responsive a ski is. Inexperienced skiers and those of you who need to make sharp turns should go with skis that have a shorter radius. On the other hand, advanced-level skiers might want to go with a larger turning radius because it allows making wider turns at higher speeds.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Profile<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While this isn\u2019t directly related to men\u2019s and women\u2019s skis, the profile of the ski has a lot to do with its performance so you should think about it before buying. When browsing skis, you\u2019ll come across models with a camber, a rocker, and many combinations of these two. You\u2019ll see the profile when you lay the ski flat on the ground (without load) and look at it from the side.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A <strong>camber<\/strong> is a middle section that is lifted off the ground when the ski isn\u2019t under any type of load. The lifted surface comes in contact with the ground only when you step on the skis. This is a very effective way of increasing the edge surface when carving the skis. It keeps you in contact with the snow and makes carving much easier and smoother.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A <strong>rocker<\/strong> is a ski profile where only the midsection is in contact with the snow and the tip and tail are curved upward (resembles a rocking chair). This style prevents the ski from diving into the snow. It floats much better on the surface, especially in fresh powder snow. On the other hand, it has less edge contact so turning isn\u2019t as easy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Models that combine the two (like the Black Pearl 88) try to get the best out of both types. If you want to learn more about this, be sure to read our article on the differences between a camber and a rocker.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Materials (Construction)<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It goes without saying that high-quality materials are required for any ski, regardless of whether it\u2019s designed as a unisex ski or a women-specific model. With this in mind, there are still some differences in construction when it comes to women snow skis.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Women-specific design often means that the ski has a softer core inside and fewer layers of laminate on top. The smaller amount of materials reduces both the weight and the stiffness of the skis, making them more flexible and easier to control. Other than that, the construction process of the ski is pretty much the same, so you\u2019ll be able to find all the different types of skis in the women\u2019s category too.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Mounting Position and Ramp Angle<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We mentioned at the beginning that women have (on average) a lower center of gravity when compared to men. This means that the pressure that a female body creates on the skis isn\u2019t the same. To compensate for this, the best women\u2019s skis have a different mounting position for the ski bindings. This position is usually moved a few centimeters towards the tip, giving you more power in the tip as well as better control and stability.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Some of the women\u2019s ski models come with integrated bindings (these are called system skis). These are already built into the ski, meaning that you don\u2019t have to drill holes for the bindings. This makes the ski more flexible and easier to turn because it doesn\u2019t have a bolted spot in the middle (where it doesn\u2019t flex). An argument against this would be that you can\u2019t choose the mounting position yourself. Still, we feel that having pre-installed bindings is pretty great for women\u2019s skis.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We also want to mention another small difference that female skis have. The ramp angle on the bindings is often tilted forward a bit, so your ski boots don\u2019t sit flat when you lock them in. This additionally helps with the balance and maneuverability on the skis.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Performance<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">All of the things we\u2019ve discussed above influence the performance. While the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globosurfer.com\/best-all-mountain-skis\/\">best all mountain skis<\/a> for women are able to tackle most challenges, it would be wise to think about your skill level and the tracks you\u2019ll be skiing before you make your final choice.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For example, if you mainly need a ski for carving, you want a model that is easy to turn edge to edge and that stays in full contact with the surface throughout the turn. This is desirable if you usually ski on groomed tracks in resorts. In addition, this type can be a good choice for those of you learning how to ski.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Narrow skis can also be pretty exciting and playfull to ride. A smaller waist makes the ski more responsive and maneuverable, and it\u2019s even better if they have a good rebound when you twist and turn them. Furthermore, it\u2019s a plus if the ski has the ability to cut through crud and handle bumps without throwing you off.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you want to try off-piste skiing, you perhaps need a wider ski that can handle powder. A wider tip and waist help the ski float on the snow, while a rocker prevents it from diving into the snow. This will result in a much better performance in these conditions (compared to narrow skis).<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Graphics<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The print pattern on ladies skis has nothing do to with the performance. While we\u2019re sure you know this, we wanted to point it out so you don\u2019t get tempted to go for the prettiest pair of skis you see.
