What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: "The Blade W is unlike any ski I’ve ridden before—super quick edge to edge and insanely fun on groomers. The big shovel helps it float through soft snow and chop, while the tight turn radius makes it carve like a race ski but way more playful. It’s the ski I grab when I just want to rip around and smile all day."Who It’s For Playful All-Mountain Skiers Who Love Carving: This ski is perfect for women who enjoy fast, energetic turns on groomers but want a shape that can handle chopped snow and variable terrain. Best for advanced intermediates through experts looking for a unique, confidence-building ride. What It’s For Carving with All-Mountain Versatility: The Blade W thrives on the frontside, where its tight turn radius makes carving addictive. Its wide shovel adds float and stability in soft or choppy snow, giving it the versatility to explore beyond groomed runs.
