Manufacturer’s Description of the Atomic Hot Minx:
"The Atomic Hot Minx w/4tix Binding was designed for women skiers who prefer to have fun on the groomed slopes. The Hot Minx guarantees uncomplicated carving with lots of fun, for active, independent female skiers."
Ski-Review’s Verdict:
Ski hard and aggressively or do some E Z mild mannered cruising. The Hot Minx does either with ease and a secure sense of control. Easy to initiate and very good edge grip.
Not a speed specialist, but very easy to control and turn at medium speeds, even on the toughest terrain. Forgiving and highly recommended for ladies who want to “turn it up a notch” as the new Hot Minx almost invites the skier to let ‘em go and use a little more speed and gravity to allow the ski to work as designed.
The above comment is dead on. Let the new Minx run and gain a little speed; then tip them both up on edge and the natural flex of the ski takes over and VIOLA! Nice carving, not so much effort. Learn to trust these skis and you’ll be better without even trying.
This ski and a PRIVATE lesson will make anyone a better skier, and they’ll be doing it with more grace and less trepidation.

The review couldn’t have been more on the mark! I tried these demos out at work the other day (152’s) and as an aggressive intermediate, I found them simply amazing. I would argue that they do in fact hold well at higher speeds, and I felt as though I had much more control than with my lighter Volkl’s. Well done, Atomic!
