In words

Intro
This is the Ortles 90 for women or other lightweight skiers and is the widest of Ski Trab's Pro Touring range. Designed for stiffness and to be the highest performing ski of the family on the descent, it features Liwood Air construction with woods of various densities encased in a carbon-fiber torsion box, which makes the ski stiff at the waist while allowing more flex at tip and tail. A true big-mountain ski, its solid bridge between the edges — a trademark for the brand out of Bormio — makes the ski even more resistant.
