Easy on edge.\u003c\/strong\u003e The 2027 Radar Session Women's Slalom Waterski is built to make skiing enjoyable from the very first pull. Stable at slower speeds, predictable through the turn and easy to roll from edge to edge, it provides a genuinely accessible slalom experience without feeling like a traditional wide ski.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Session is part of Radar's Open Water Series and is designed to be the ski that stays close to hand whenever there's an opportunity to get on the water. It combines the stability and easy starts associated with a wider platform with the feel and behaviour of a true slalom ski.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe women's-specific construction is tailored to provide a lighter and fractionally softer flex than the equivalent men's construction. This makes the ski easier to load and exploit, helping the skier get the most from its performance without needing to overpower the ski.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs the UK's largest Radar dealer, we spend a lot of time helping skiers find equipment that suits the way they actually ski. The Session is particularly appealing if you want a ski that makes getting out of the water easy, builds confidence through the turn and remains fun and predictable at more relaxed boat speeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/w04lKYgQNoc?si=O-Dvz0lzzbTI7uVF\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrip Rails 2.0\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWider skis are naturally easier to get up on, but the additional width can traditionally make them harder to roll onto edge and hold that edge through the wakes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRadar addresses this with \u003cstrong\u003eGrip Rails 2.0\u003c\/strong\u003e. The angled rails effectively create a pseudo-tunnel beneath the ski, directing water flow towards the centre. This allows the Session to roll, grip and maintain its edge more naturally through the turn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a clever combination of stability and performance. You get the easy starts and support of a wider ski, while retaining the natural edge engagement and carving characteristics expected from a genuine slalom ski.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWomen's Specific Construction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Women's Session uses a female-specific composite construction, tailored around the requirements of female skiers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe construction is lighter and fractionally softer than the equivalent men's specification, making the flex easier to load and exploit. Rather than requiring the skier to generate large amounts of force to make the ski work, the construction is designed to respond naturally to the skier's input.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis complements the Session's overall design philosophy perfectly: easy to start, easy to engage and easy to enjoy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAll-Terrain Construction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Session uses Radar's \u003cstrong\u003eAll-Terrain\u003c\/strong\u003e construction, designed around forgiveness and ease of use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCombined with the wider platform and Grip Rails 2.0, this gives the ski a particularly stable and predictable feel. It's a platform that allows the skier to concentrate on enjoying their skiing rather than worrying about making every movement perfectly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e100% Carbon Fiber\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Session incorporates \u003cstrong\u003e100% carbon fiber\u003c\/strong\u003e construction to provide consistent flex characteristics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a ski that responds predictably from one turn to the next, while the women's-specific construction allows the flex to be more easily exploited by the skier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFeature\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBenefit\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWomen's-Specific Construction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLighter and fractionally softer composite construction designed to make the ski's flex easier to load and exploit.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAll-Terrain Construction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRadar's most forgiving construction for a stable, predictable and accessible ride.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e100% Carbon Fiber\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProvides consistent flex characteristics and predictable response.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrip Rails 2.0\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAngled rails direct water flow towards the centre of the ski, helping it roll, grip and maintain edge through the wakes.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWide Slalom Platform\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProvides additional stability and makes getting up out of the water easier, particularly at slower speeds.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrue Slalom Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDelivers more natural edge engagement and carving performance than a traditional wide ski.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich Session Size?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Women's Session is available in two sizes.

The lighter, fractionally softer composite layup makes it easier to load the ski and get a meaningful response from the flex, particularly for skiers who don't generate the same forces as a heavier or more powerful skier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe'd particularly recommend considering the Session if you're moving beyond a beginner or learner ski and want something that will continue to offer genuine slalom characteristics as your skiing develops. It is forgiving enough to inspire confidence, but still rolls naturally onto edge and carves rather than simply sliding across the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIf you're unsure which size or ski is right for you, please ask.\u003c\/strong\u003e As the UK's largest Radar dealer, we're happy to offer honest, experienced advice based on your ability, boat speed, weight and what you're looking to get from your skiing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Radar","offers":[{"title":"65in","offer_id":55217240736071,"sku":"R27SE-W-65in.","price":399.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"67in","offer_id":55217240768839,"sku":"R27SE-W-67in.","price":399.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/5970\/0295\/files\/radar_session_womens_wide_body_slalom_waterski_2027_2_250f3cdb-734a-47c5-9dbd-591e105ff876.jpg?v=1790935535","url":"https:\/\/roho.co.uk\/products\/2027-radar-session-womens-slalom-waterski","provider":"Robin Hood Watersports","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
