Kore 97 W Skis 2022

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I've used the Kore 97 W in everything from groomers to wind-buffed bowls—they're impressively light, but still hold an edge at speed. What stands out is how stable they feel for such a low-weight ski. Whether I’m linking lift laps or throwing a touring binding on for a quick skin, these skis can handle it all."

Who It’s For

Advanced Women Skiers Seeking Resort-to-Backcountry Versatility:

This ski is designed for women who want one setup that can carve groomers, handle freeride lines, and even dabble in touring. Ideal for confident skiers who value lightweight agility without sacrificing stability.

What It’s For

Freeride Performance with Touring Potential:

The Kore 97 W is at home on firm corduroy, in variable chop, or floating through fresh snow. With tip and tail rocker, it’s nimble and forgiving off-piste, while camber underfoot ensures dependable edge hold for carving at speed.

Why We Like It

Lightweight, Stable, and Confidence-Building:

We like how Head’s Karuba/Poplar core is paired with Graphene and carbon laminates to keep weight down while boosting power. The Multilayer-Carbon Sandwich Cap construction makes the ski feel smooth in variable snow, and Topless Tech shaves ounces without compromising durability. It’s a true all-mountain charger that’s light enough to tour.
