The 2026 Head Kore 87 Ti W brings lightweight precision to the frontside and blends it with enough off-piste capability to keep things fun when conditions change. It’s a refined all-mountain ski with a freeride soul—perfect for women who value quickness, smoothness, and versatility across firm and mixed snow.

Why we like it:

The Kore 87 Ti W feels featherlight without sacrificing strength or edge hold, making it a joy to ski whether you’re linking turns on corduroy or exploring off the groomed surfaces. It’s a great option for skiers who want the advantages of metal but do not want to deal with the typical associated weight that comes with titanal laminates.

Who it's for:

Women skiers from strong intermediates to experts looking for an agile daily driver that prioritizes on-piste performance but can still hold its own when the snow softens or the terrain gets more technical.

Highlights:

Built with Head’s Freeride Sandwich Cap Construction composed of Head’s PET Wood Core (Poplar and PET) which is then reinforced with Graphene, Flax, and Titanal, the Kore 87 Ti W keeps things light without feeling twitchy. The PET Wood Core is responsive and energetic, and Titanal underfoot adds grip and stability when carving at speed. The ski’s rockered tip and tail help initiate turns easily and maintain float in light chop or spring snow, while camber underfoot provides the precision and rebound you'd expect from a frontside ski.

Things to consider:

At 87 mm underfoot, this ski is best for those who primarily stick to the groomed or moderately variable terrain. Powder-focused skiers or those seeking maximum float will want to look to a wider underfoot option within the Kore line.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Skis true to size. Skiers focused on tight turns or trees may prefer to size down slightly, while stronger skiers looking for added high-speed stability will do well at their usual length.
