I'm looking to buy a new ski this season but can't decide between the aura or the kiku...I am also a little hesitant since I have never skied a true womens ski before (i've always skied mens) Will these skis be too soft? I am an advanced very aggressive skier. Any suggestions will be of great help!

Both skis are great skis. it would depend what you are looking for in a ski. for an allround ski the Aura is a better match. if you like a big stick or like to schmeere you way down than the Kiku is your ski. the question about a womans or mens ski would come down to your build. my wife is a super aggressive skiier but she is 115lbs and 5'3" so she isn't pushing as much mass as i am. she has a pair of Karhu Berthas (and loves them). between these two skis i would go with the Kiku, i like fat skis for all conditions. whatever you decide you will have a blast! enjoy the POWDER!
