As the fate of the Soul 7 HD W is inextricably linked to that of its unisex twin, the improvements made to one apply equally to the other. For 2018, this means the tip, while remaining rockered and tapered, is now integrated into the main body of the ski and makes contact with the snow closer to the widest point on the ski. The net effect is to improve edging effectiveness on those irksome occasions when hard snow is all there is to ski.

Rossignol doesn’t differentiate between a Big Mountain ski and a Women’s Big Mountain ski. When you make the most popular Big Mountain ski of all time, the Soul 7, now in its third incarnation, why not redecorate it in smaller sizes and call it good?

Make that call it great, for the Soul 7 HD W is a first-class powder ski. Well cambered where it isn’t amply rockered, it responds to pressure with an energetic rebound. The beauty of this trait is it operates even when the ski is pressing against light, loose snow. Porpoising up and down through bottomless powder, it practically rises to the surface in the brief intermission between turns.

Women’s Test Data Advisory

Please be advised that our 2022 women’s ski reviews do not show any test data, on either our public or members’ sites. Due to circumstances beyond our control, we haven’t been able to collect sufficient test results to justify showing a statistical summary.

While Realskiers members won’t be able to see stats on women’s reviews, they will see a longer, more in-depth narrative than what’s posted on our public site.

We appreciate your continued support through these troublesome times.
