2027 Head Kore 87 TI Women's Skis

Frontside-leaning all-mountain skiing for women is the home territory of the Head Kore 87 TI W. With a women's-specific poplar and recycled PET core, titanal damping, and a tip-to-tail rocker profile, it's a narrower-waisted ski built for confidence on firm snow and just enough off-trail range when conditions soften up.

Why we like it:

The narrower waist makes this ski feel genuinely effortless edge-to-edge. The titanal damping keeps the ride quiet and predictable through chop, and the poplar and PET core keeps the swing weight low enough to ski all day without fatigue setting in.

Who it's for:

Intermediate, advanced, and expert women skiers who lean frontside but want some off-trail range. Great for skiers on the East Coast, Midwest, or any mountain where groomers dominate and powder is the exception, not the rule.

Highlights:

The core is built around poplar with recycled PET stringers, a women's-specific layup that's lighter than traditional wood-only construction and easier on the planet. Titanal layers add damping and edge-hold, and a Graphene reinforcement boosts strength without padding the swing weight. The Freeride Sandwich Cap Construction strikes the balance between sharp response and forgiving feel, and a structured base keeps glide consistent. The rocker profile matches the rest of the Kore line, with a long, low tip-to-tail rise paired with strong camber underfoot. The Hybrid Top Surface with its flax inlay rounds out a distinctive look that's also doing real damping work.

Things to consider:

Best suited for groomed and frontside terrain, so this isn't the ski for skiers who frequent deeper snow. The Kore 93 TI W is the natural step wider for skiers who want more off-trail range, and the Kore 99 TI W is the call for soft-snow regions.

Fit & sizing considerations:

True to length for most skiers. Pick the size that matches your usual frontside ride; drop a length for tighter, snappier turns, lengthen up for more stability when you open things up.
