Völkl Kiku (2012)
Tester's Review
Our testers pushed the Kiku hard and found no breaking point. It's responsive to subtle movements and absolutely rails carved turns on hard snow. In fact, it's one of the best carvers among the wider women's skis we tested. It doesn't smear like its more rockered peers, but expert women with hard-snow training won't find a better ski for off-trail adventures.
PRICE (MSRP): $825.00
PRICE (MAP): $699.00
