Default Most represented brand of skis

What brand is your primary, day to day, go to ski? I'm not saying one is better than the other; that's a personal preference. Just wondering which one is the most represented by the Divas.

I'm definitely in the minority amongst the divas being a head girl - volkl and k2 have dominated the US market so much.... although it's not reflected in the poll yet.... sure it's only a matter of time!!

I love Head skis! I used to have a pair, and I'm sure I'll have them again in the future.

My Black Diamond Justices are my go-to ski these days. (Thought I would post it to clarify "other"...)

Great skis - my Monster iM78's are awesome, when I want to ski fast big swoopy turns. I also LOVE my Fischers - Progressor 8+'s - can't say enough good things about them.

I really don't have a brand loyalty.....I like aspects of Fischer, K2, Volkl, Head, Line, Salomon....depending on what I want them to do.

Hart makes a beautiful ski. I had, but sold, my F17's . SnowHot's Hart Beats are gorgeous. If I got a chance to ski any Kastle's I'd be in trouble!

No Roxy love? I really <3'd my Joyriders while I had them!

(Though I guess you could lump Roxy with Rossi...?)

I think the Diva "Aura factor" may be skewing the results!

Reading through the forum...Volkl is definitely in the top 2.

I also only have 1 pair off all mountain twin tips. Armada Fleet Cantikas. A little boutiquey, but I love them




The graphics are also very cute. Pink, purple, white and GLITTER! I usually get heaps of compliments in the lift lines.

Assuming one Diva, one vote, so I voted "other".

Other for me now is KASTLE MX88 (love love).

My other skis are just idle for now, cuz I can't get off the Kastles.

I've been a Rossi fan since 1992. I haven't owned any other brand since.

they definitely deserve a mention, if only the Kastles were more affordable they would take over the world. IMO the MX78/88/98/108 would be the perfect ski for 95% of women in this forum, you're lucky to own a piece of the magic!!

My Go to skis in my current travel quiver are my Hart Beats and Kastle FX84, Unless I get an idea that there will be a huge dump, then I switch the Beats for the Kiku's.
That is really all I need in my quiver at this point.
If i had to pick one I'd say Kastle at the moment. That ski Rocks!

Default Skis, skis and skis

I have four pairs of skis, but I only ski on two. My number one ski is the 2009 Rossignol Voodoo 74 in a 154cm length. My newest (and is has only two ski days) is the 2010 Fischer Koa75 in a 155cm length. The other two skis are 2009 Atomics (Cloud 6 and Mynx). I bought them for friends to use over Christmas while visiting. They were new to skiing and these skis were perfect.

Allie, so great to hear another Ski Diva loving the '09 Rossignol Voodoo SC74s! There aren't too many of us on the forums, so I thought I would pipe up!
