Be the first to upload your photo of the Velvet Ski - Women's. >
For turn-intensive ski mountaineering or days spent ripping up the hardpack, the Black Diamond Women\222s Velvet Ski gives you the same torsional stiffness as the boys with a longitudinal flex designed just for the ladies. The svelte 88mm waist makes for hard carving and quick turning while still giving you enough width to make the most of a pow day.
- Dual Torsion Bow uses two internal ribs to distribute weight along the length of the ski
- Double Torsion Box construction wraps core like a burrito for torsional power and added pop
- Poplar core with foam stringers gives ladies a lighter swing weight and a slightly softer flex
Bottom Line: A stable all-mountain carver that makes quick work of consolidated conditions.
Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

Velvet is also way softer than the Joule. Pretty forgiving flex. I was just in the store flexing both of them (shopping for the wife).

The Joule is wider, which makes it better in the powder. The Velvet is a great mid-width option, which will do just fine in powder as well, but isn't quite as wide underfoot.

How does this ski compare to the BD Voodoo? Seems to be just about the same ski... (graphics aside)

It's about the same ski, but because it is tailored to women, it has a slightly softer, rounder flex, and it does not come in a 185 length. I think the Voodoo might be a little lighter, too.
