The W-24 from Salomon is a great carving ski for women who are looking for power and precision, without having a ski that is too heavy for them. The W-24 packs all of the power, but without any excess weight. Made with a Full Wood Core and a Double Ti Laminate the W-24 is very stable at speed, and very quick to react when you want it to. Sandwich Sidewall Construction gives you a fantastic grip on the snow even ice. The 71mm waist is very narrow and extremely quick from turn to turn. Salomon's Carve Rocker has 10% of the ski made with tip rocker to initiate turns quickly, and 90% of the ski with camber to give you grip, control and rebound. If you want a carving ski that is very stable, but light and responsive the Salomon W-24 is your ski.
