Santa Ana 97 Ski - 2027 - Women's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I’ve skied the Santa Ana 97 in everything from chopped-up powder to spring groomers, and it's just such a versatile ride. It’s damp without feeling dead, holds an edge like a narrower ski, and is still super playful off-piste. The blend of metal and Pulse core makes it feel smooth and confidence-inspiring at speed."

Who It’s For

Intermediate to Expert All-Mountain Skiers:

The Santa Ana 97 is made for skiers who want one ski to handle both frontside carving and freeride terrain. Ideal for confident intermediates progressing their skills and advanced riders who need stability at speed without sacrificing versatility. Perfect for those who ski groomers during the week and chase soft snow or tree runs when it’s fresh.

What It’s For

All-Mountain Versatility with Freeride Performance:

With a 97mm waist, this ski shines in mixed conditions—floating in soft snow, holding a strong edge on hardpack, and maneuvering easily in trees or bumps. Rocker in the tip and tail adds playfulness, while camber underfoot maintains precision and control.

Why We Like It

Stability, Smoothness, and Fun Together:

We like the Santa Ana 97 for its balanced ride—damp and confidence-inspiring without feeling sluggish. The Energy TI W construction combines a lively wood core, elastomer Pulse layer, and terrain-specific titanal for stability and vibration absorption. Its unlocked tail adds agility for slarves and quick pivots, making it a ski that feels both powerful and playful.
