The Head Kore 97 is an ideal choice for advanced female skiers seeking versatility across all snow conditions. With a lightweight wood core, it offers natural nimbleness and responsiveness, enhanced by a layer of carbon for stability and smoothness. Plenty of tip and tail rocker adds a playful feel, ensuring effortless maneuverability in soft snow, resulting in a ski that can tackle just about anything you throw at it.

Why we like it:

We're drawn to this ski for its versatility across various snow conditions. With the Kore 97's lightweight design, adventurous skiers can tackle run after run and still have the energy to unwind with the crew afterward.

Who it's for:

This ski is ideal for adventurous skiers seeking versatility across various terrains and snow conditions. West coast skiers will find the Kore 97 to be their go-to daily driver, while East coast enthusiasts will particularly enjoy it on days when fresh snow is on the menu.

Highlights:

The Kore 97 is defined by its exceptional versatility across various snow conditions, brought to you by the clever use of Graphene to add both tortional and longitudinal stability to an extremely lightweight ski, giving it power and precision while maintaining a feather-light swing weight for ultimate nimbleness. If you’ve never heard of Graphene, it’s an extremely thin layer of carbon that adds just the right amount of torsional and longitudinal stiffness, giving the Kore 97 its powerful and smooth feel.

Things to consider:

For lighter skiers, flexing the Kore 97 may prove challenging due to its relatively stiff flex compared to other women's skis. In such instances, some skiers have experienced chatter at both higher speeds and edge angles. For those embracing a more creative skiing style, there are skis available that offer a more playful feel than the Kore lineup and would be better suited to fostering that creativity on the mountain.
