Description

:
-
: A women’s-specific blend of beech and poplar wood, precisely engineered for each ski length, delivers the perfect balance of strength and forgiveness. High-density stringers in the core provide power and stability underfoot, while softer tips and tails make turn initiation and release smooth and effortless.
-
: The updated titanal layout, with two separate layers and fiberglass in between, enhances grip and stability without making the ski overly stiff. This results in a ski that is more powerful tip-to-tail yet less torsionally rigid, boosting maneuverability and confidence across all terrain.
-
: Three women’s-specific pieces of titanal and a full sidewall sandwich layup maximize edge hold, stability at speed, and durability, while keeping the ski playful and easy to handle.
-
: Rockered tip and tail with camber underfoot make for easy turn initiation, reliable edge grip on hardpack, and improved float in softer snow.
-
: At 88mm underfoot, the Black Pearl 88 is quick edge-to-edge and stable on groomers, yet wide enough to handle mixed and variable snow conditions.
-
: With a turn radius ranging from 11 to 16.5 meters (size dependent), the ski is lively and responsive for weaving through trees or linking tight turns on piste.
