I'm not thinking of getting these, but I am curios about something. Are these girls skis or not?
The pink makes me believe it is a girls ski, but I've never read it anywhere.

i don't know, i do know the Rangi and Maunga are. i wouldn't think so though, as most girls skis don't come in a 178, it just looks like a cheaper version of the addict (aka made with cheaper materials and normal edges instead of the extra thick reinforced ones on the addicts.)

according to ski press they're

Best Buy: Park Twintips - Women

They're a softer version of the addicts, which is typical of women's vs men's skis, but I wouldn't call it "exclusively" designed for women, just more fitting for them

i wouldn't call em girls skis, i think a good comparison would be sprayer FSs to SCratch FS WRS, is like the habit to the addict.

it's not a girls ski, just a softer true twintip that is a bit narrower. Still a solid vertically laminated wood core, with an edge to edge cap rather than a full sidewall ski. Still a solid ski for sure, super light and soft. definitely affordable too!
