Volkl Aura Ski - Women's

It's like floating on clouds

By Ranked #1206 - Alpine Skiing October 29, 2008

I just got these last season and love them. I am 5'7" 120 lbs and this is the only sport where I think a 'womens' ski does make a difference. I am aggressive but my skinny legs can only do so much to a ski. I have the 163cm length with BD 01 bindings(tele setup, the most amazing binding ever!). I ski almost exclusively in the backcountry in utah. I have taken these through all sorts of different snow and conditions, they are easy to turn and make me feel like I am floating on clouds. I can't compare these to too much b/c I haven't tried any other fat women's skis (only mens) but I have been very happy. Based on where I ski I think I would get a fatter ski the next time I buy some even if it had a little extra weight (like the kiku) but so far these are great all around skis.
