Is there a women's ski that is fat and floats but is also *STIFF* so it will blast through the crud and not get thrown around at high speed? Or would I be better to try a men's ski?

These might be your ski. Crud is no challenge for the Tough Luv. Even as a lighter skier, I bust through it. The Tough Luv is stiff, heavy and floats. You can pick up some decent speed on it, but if stiffness for high speeds is you chief concern, you might want to go to a men's ski.

This is a fairly stiff ski thanks to the metal laminate, and busts up crud, for a womens ski. If you want a really stiff ski though, you pretty much have to go up to a mens ski, maybe a K2 Apache series or even something like the Extreme. Try to keep it at a waist around here though, nothing too huge, because it might become very hard to transfer edge to edge.
