2026 Dynastar M-Cross W 88 Open Skis

The 2026 Dynastar M-Cross 88 W brings directional precision and resort-wide versatility to advanced and expert skiers who want a carving-focused ride that doesn't shy away from mixed terrain. With a wider all-mountain waist and confidence-inspiring shape, it thrives across corduroy, chop, and the spaces in between.

Why we like it:

This ski bridges the gap between true frontside performance and all-mountain versatility, making it a reliable daily driver for directional skiers.

Who it's for:

Best for advanced to expert women who prefer a powerful, resort-oriented ski that can still handle softer snow and varied conditions with ease.

Highlights:

Dynastar’s Hybrid Core 2.0 blends poplar with polyurethane in a unique tri-directional laminate, creating a damp yet energetic feel that grips confidently without feeling overbuilt. H-Tech reinforcement through the center enhances torsional rigidity and responsiveness, while Adaptative Sidecuts and a long rocker profile contribute to fluid, intuitive turn initiation and a balanced ride across terrain types. Full Sandwich Sidewalls and a Sintered HD Base round out the construction with edge hold and glide that rival more demanding skis.

Things to consider:

Though more versatile than a true carving ski, the M-Cross 88 still favors a directional, on-trail approach; skiers who prioritize playfulness or deep-snow performance might prefer something with more taper and rocker.

Fit & sizing considerations:

This ski runs true to size. Shorter lengths provide quicker transitions, while longer options maintain a planted, high-speed feel.
