Sidecut: 116/69/101
Jans' Assessment: You'll hear plenty about this series of skis named after the Title Nine ruling that gave women equality in sports funding at the academic level. The True Luv was a hit in 2005 and will continue, especially when you add Marker's IBC integrated binding system. You go girl!
Ski Magazine Assessment: For the aspiring expert, the True Luv may be just that. It's forgiving and comfortable, with an unusually big sweet spot. It's a very well balanced ski that has an incredible sense of stability, confidence, strength, power and calmness.

Rossignol B3 W
Sizes Available: 150, 160, 168
Sidecut: 120/83/110

Ski Magazine Assessment: Rossignol's Bandit series is synonymous with speed and all-mountain performance. In fact, testers say the B3 W performs best at speed, much to the satisfaction of fast, aggressive Freeriders. The freerider will be a rock star on this ski!
Powder Magazine Assessment: Female rippers share the same qualities as their male counterparts: confidence, athleticism, and strength. But a trait too many men lack is grace and style, which is precisely what Rossi has provided for the ladies with its Bandit B3 W.

Sidecut: 128/95/118

Powder Magazine Assessment: The top sheet may scream Skier Barbie, but the core is pure G.I. Jane. Introduced as the first high-performance women's fat ski on the market, the Phat Luv has won the hearts of backcountry babes everywhere.

Head Fast Thang
Sizes Available: 150, 155, 160
Sidecut: 115/62/99

Rossignol B2 W
Sizes Available: 148, 158, 166
Sidecut: 116/78/105

Ski Magazine Assessment: This ski is designed to spend time on and off piste. Testers agree that the B2 W makes a great fit for All-Mountain Experts.

Volkl Attiva 4 Star
Sizes Available: 147, 154, 161
Sidecut: 112/67/97
Jans' Assessment: Combined with Marker's Motion LT Easy Step binding system, the Attiva 4 Star is a high energy carving tool that holds a turn at any speed on any snow. The 20/20 core is 20% lighter and 20% softer than some of its predecessors, making the ski feel effortless without sacrificing performance.
Ski Magazine Assessment: The Attiva 4 Star performs like a GS board, but without the stiff, race-ski attitude. Athletic Cruisers will appreciate its lively, yet stable ride.

K2 T:9 Lotta Luv
Sizes Available: 153, 160, 167
Sidecut: 119/78/105
Jans' Assessment: There is a lotta love in this ski, since all last year women were screaming for a Recon of their own. K2, unlike most guys, listened and came up with a real winner for 2006. Here is the first real women's specific midfat that's not a detuned version of the boy's ski.
Ski Magazine Assessment: This ski has a waist that gives it the flotation to tame challenging snow conditions, but it can still set a reliable edge. Testers found it dependable, stable and incredibly easy to turn, even in tough conditions.

Atomic B9:6 Diva
Sizes Available: 145, 152, 159
Radius: 13m
Jans' Assessment: The B9:6 is the optimal partner for confident ladies looking for that ultimate ski. New Nano Frame technology offers harmonious flex, making the ski softer and lighter without losing energy and pop coming out of the turn.
Ski Magazine Assessment: The Balanze 9:6 is made with new Nano Frame technology, which makes a soft-flexing ski torsionally stiff by manipulating material at the molecular level to add strength without adding weight. The voluptuous shape of this ski makes it versatile to be able to plow through crud and carve quick turns.
