Best of Head Joy Series for 2021
Devin Montgomery
Introducing the Joy Series from Head, a collection of skis designed specifically for women with a range covering beginners to the most advance skiers and all conditions. What makes these skis unlike any other skis on the market? We'll break it down for you right now.

Control, Balance, Light
Control
Head has pulled out all the stops to increase stability and reduce
vibrations. Each Joy ski has its own female specific geometry
combined with women's camber and Era 3.0 technology.
Light
Using superlight Karuba wood as the core and carbon embedded along
the length of the ski, the joy series keeps the weight at minimum
without compromising durability.
Balance
Every Joy ski has Graphene as part of the construction. The skis are
able to have a thinner center shifting the weight front and back
creating a unique weight distribution.
The Joy line is not a “shrink and pink” derivative of men’s skis,
they are completely unique and specifically built for women. -
