Head’s Absolut Joy is the choice for piste skiers who also like to test themselves on ungroomed snow & accessible off-piste. With its extra width compared to the Real Joy, this ski offers stability on choppy or variable terrain, while still delivering an exhilarating ride on the piste. Terrain Suitability It's an all-mountain ski, but a piste focused one. The majority of time will be spent following marked runs, its width & smooth flex are ideal for dealing with rough snow when the trails chop up, because they're rarely perfectly groomed for long, but it isn't too wide to make it feel sluggish or slow to respond. It is also well suited for exploring off the sides, hunting fresh snow or different challenges like trees or tracked-out snow. Skier Type Intermediate & lighter advanced skiers who mainly stay on piste but who do enjoy more than groomed snow. Technique doesn't need to be perfect as the ski is not demanding to use & does have the grip to hold a carve, so it encourag... ...

One of our most popular women’s all mountain skis got even better. Head have upgraded the core of the ski to a karuba wood. This keeps the ski lightweight & improves the stability in variable snow as well as increasing grip. Graphene is used to fine-tune the flex, making the ski feel supremely balanced. The Absolut Joy has a huge performance bracket & that’s why so many skiers love it. Tester’s comments: Sarah (Aviemore) I loved the life & energy of the new wood core. It’s such an easy ski to use but surprisingly it doesn’t mind being pushed at moderate speeds & is so stable yet lively too. ...

One of our most popular women's all mountain skis, the Absolut Joy, got an impressive upgrade recently with karuba wood used in the core which, as we expected, boosted its appeal even further. The karuba keeps the ski lightweight & improves the stability in variable snow as well as increasing grip. Adding to the lightweight theme, Graphene is used to fine-tune the flex, making the ski feel supremely balanced even when the snow gets rough. It's got a huge performance bracket that satisfies skiers from intermediate right up to advanced level & it's a worthy winner of many awards. Terrain Type & Ability Level Terrain Type It's an all mountain ski, but a piste focused one. The majority of time will be spent following marked runs, its width & smooth flex are ideal for dealing with rough snow when the trails chop up, because they're rarely perfectly groomed for long, but it isn't too wide to make it feel sluggish or slow to respond. It is also well suited for exploring off the sides, hunting some fresh snow or different challenges like trees or tracked-out snow. Skier Type Intermediate & lighter advanced skiers who mainly stay on piste but who do enjoy more than groomed snow. Technique doesn't need to be perfect as the ski is not demanding to use & does have the grip to hold a carve, so it encourages progression of skills & allows the skier to be more adventurous. These traits also mean it's a lovely cruiser too. Overview Shape It has the curves of a piste ski, just with an slightly exaggerated waist & tip &, thanks to the lightweight materials used, it doesn't feel any heavier than a typical piste ski. The radius is on turny side, matching perfectly the requirement to spend hours cruising & turning on marked trails, & isn't too tight or long so it still helps to make skiing different terrain easier, remaining stable & manouevrable. Rocker Allride Rocker uses tip rocker & camber underfoot; perfect for skiers who feel comfortable on any slopes. The rocker enables superior steering & increases floatation. The camber ensures grip & precision on hard snow. Core A vertically laminated wood core has a composite sock around it. This combination results in good vibration control, no excess weight & a smooth ride that suits ambitious skiers who don't want all out power. Construction Superlite Power Sidewall Jacket Construction is a mouthful, but it gives a lot of clues to what it does & how it's made. A cap construction enhances durability & sits on top of ABS Sidewalls which provide precise energy transmission. As well as the wood composite core, a layer of Graphene is used to keep the ski light but also increase the strength. Key Featurese RA 3.0e RA 3.0 is a combination of technologies, shape & geometry using a targeted rocker at the tip with low rise, a progressive radius & vibration absorbing fibres. The rocker improves steering & enhances soft snow versatility. The progressive radius at the tip means that even though there is rocker, less angulation is required to get full edge contact, resulting in better grip. Intellifibers in the tip dampen vibrations for a smoother ride. Graphene Graphene is the thinnest & lightest element ever discovered by mankind. It is also the strongest material on the planet, stronger than diamond & 300 times stronger than steel, all in the thickness of one atom. By using it in the construction Head can reduce weight & increase strength of the ski.e B tester’s comments: Sarah (Aviemore) I loved the life & energy of the ski.
