At 87–88mm underfoot across the three lengths we carry, it sits right in frontside-all-mountain territory: quick enough edge-to-edge on a groomed pitch, composed enough to handle chopped-up snow without rattling you out of your boots. This is Atomic's answer to the advanced women's skier who wants a ski with real power behind it, not just a soft all-around cruiser.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe CTI construction is what sets it apart from the rest of the Maven line. Carbon and Titanal work together in the layup to stiffen the flex pattern in a way that feels round and consistent under your feet rather than harsh. It doesn't feel like a race ski, but it has that same planted, damp quality that makes you want to push harder. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho it's For\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ski is built for advanced to expert women who ski groomers with intention — skiers who make deliberate arcs, who pick their line early, and who want a ski that answers when they ask. The 15m turn radius at 159cm pulls naturally into medium-to-long arcs, so a skier who loves carving long GS-style turns on firm snow will feel right at home. It's also at ease when conditions go soft or the snow gets lumpy mid-afternoon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShorter skiers or intermediate-to-advanced riders who want something with a bit more punch than a typical cruiser will do well on the 153cm. The ski's directional shape and minimal tail rocker keep it honest and stable; it doesn't forgive sloppy technique the way a pure beginner ski does. If you're newer to skiing or want something forgiving and playful, our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/womens-ski-packages\"\u003ewomen's ski packages\u003c\/a\u003e include options better suited to that progression.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTech that Matters\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCTI Powered (Carbon + Titanal):\u003c\/strong\u003e A single Titanal laminate paired with carbon creates a flex pattern that's consistent tip to tail. The result is better energy transfer, more edge grip on firm snow, and a quieter feel through vibration-heavy terrain. It's the same construction philosophy Atomic uses across their CTI lineup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower Woodcore (Ash + Poplar):\u003c\/strong\u003e Ash brings stiffness and dampening at speed — it's why race ski builders reach for it. Poplar keeps the weight in check. Together they give the Maven 88 CTI a lively, responsive feel that isn't fatiguing on a long day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHRZN 3D Tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Atomic's 3D-shaped tip adds surface area where the ski first contacts the snow. In soft or variable conditions, it floats and transitions smoothly. On hard snow, it still initiates cleanly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAll-Mountain Rocker 15\/75\/10:\u003c\/strong\u003e A 15% tip rocker, 75% camber underfoot, and a minimal 10% tail rocker. That means you get the edge grip and power of a predominantly cambered ski with just enough tip rise to make it friendly in variable snow. The low tail rocker keeps the ski from washing out at the end of a turn.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDuraCap Sidewall + Sintered Base:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cap construction runs sidewall material from base to topsheet, which improves edge grip and handles bumps without chipping. The sintered base holds wax well and runs faster than an extruded base. Atomic's World Cup base finish comes standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy Willi's\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe've been fitting women in skis since 1970, and we know the difference between a ski that's marketed to women and one that's built for them. The Maven 88 CTI is the latter. Stop into any of our three locations, ski it past our staff, and we'll make sure the length and mount position are right for how you actually ski. We mount, tune, and wax on site.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atomic","offers":[{"title":"Flat \/ 153","offer_id":48856467046605,"sku":"41423000135","price":379.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Flat \/ 159","offer_id":48856467079373,"sku":"41423000136","price":379.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Flat \/ 165","offer_id":48856467112141,"sku":"41423000137","price":379.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.willisskiandboard.com\/products\/atomic-maven-88-cti-skis-2026","provider":"Willi's Ski \u0026 Board","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
