Multilayer Woodcore Lite - the combination of light beech and poplar results in a very durable woodcore composed of hard wood in the binding area and - due to its dedicated slots - lighter wood around 3D Radius Sidecut - three radii in one ski for maximum turning & speed versatility in all mountain skiing Suspension Tips & Tails - inserts made of elastic TPU material on the edges of the tip and tail acts like a bumper in wind-blown or tracked snow. Its shock-absorbing elasticity ensures better stability and catch-free float The Volkl Blaze 86 skis are a fantastic all-mountain option for intermediate to advanced skiers who want an easy-going, light ski to take them anywhere on the resort. They are essentially the same ski and binding that the Volkl Blaze 86 men's version is, just offered in smaller length sizes to accommodate a women's body. They offer the same construction and dimensions, as well as being light weight and very maneuverable. They are wider than any frontside carving ski or system ski that you may have been on in the past, and with some rocker and taper, you'll be sure to handle any variable snow and terrain with ease. If you want to get more involved with bumps and trees, this is probably one of the best skis to do that with as they are incredibly maneuverable and forgiving. Best suited for ladies who are intermediate and advanced skiers who love to cruise the whole mountain. Volkl Women's Blaze 86 W Skis + V Motion 11 TCX GW Bindings
