Actually, it's not a woman's ski Robert. It's a "lightweight, easy
turning ski. They are very traditional and are good for soft groomed
runs with a few bumps. They're good for beginning and intermediate
skiers."

I was sort of spoofing a different thread - sorry for the confusion.

Skiing on a woman's ski is not necessarily a bad thing.
A female ski would naturally provide a better skiing experience - the
side curve should lead to a rounded, yet firm, turning style, and
smoothness and grace should be guarenteed. One would thing a male ski
would provided the opposite - rough, jittery, with occasional hooking
when protrubences interfere.
