What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: "I’ve recommended the Absolut Joy to so many newer skiers because they’re easy to handle but still feel stable when you start picking up speed. The lightweight construction makes turning effortless, and the Allride Rocker helps initiate carves smoothly without feeling catchy. It’s a perfect setup if you want something approachable but capable of growing with you as your skills improve." We love the Head Absolut Joy Ski with Joy 9 GW Binding because it takes the intimidation out of learning and replaces it with smooth, lightweight control that inspires confidence. The hybrid wood composite core pairs perfectly with LYT Tech construction to reduce weight and make each turn feel natural and easy, whether you’re linking your first blue runs or carving up groomers with new-found speed. The Allride Rocker profile combines early-rise tip rocker for forgiveness and float with camber underfoot for stable edge hold. Graphene reinforcement and EMC vibration-absorbing technology keep the ride smooth, while the Power Sidewall adds bite and control when the conditions get firmer. Whether you’re exploring the whole mountain or working on technique, the Absolut Joy is a reliable partner that helps you unlock your potential one run at a time.
