Ski-Review’s verdict:

If you’re interested in some of the criteria that should be considered when bringing a Women’s ski to market, go to "Hey Ladies! Check this out!" on this web site.

Most Women’s skis promise performance with a cool name and flashy graphic and fall short when you get them on the hill. Any one who actually bought or demo’ed the K2 LTP (Ladies Total Performance) will probably remember their disapointment (frustration) when they actually got them on snow; especially if it was the least bit icy. Consequently, a lot of us vowed to NEVER buy a Women’s ski again. BUT, we want our bindings installed ahead a cm or 2. Moving the waist back, more under the boot heel,  or softening the flex of the shovel can help turn initiation and produce smoother turns. Some Women will love having the heel slightly higher than the toe, helping us to remain centered and balanced when the snow throws us an unexpected curve or those piles of "Death Cookies."   

The Exclusive 10 actually delivers while making it easier with a lighter ski that does it all. Reliable edge grip and a very lively feel. I LOVE them and suggest them for women looking to turn it up a notch without getting punished for those little errors that so often lead to spectacular falls. FUN skis with lots of room to grow on. You may even find yourself waiting for your husband for a change.
