Adret 88 Lady 2022
Product not eligible for returnThe Adret 88 Lady is a top-of-the-range, lightweight touring ski from ZAG. With a 7mm wider waist than the Adret 81, it is more versatile and more comfortable in powder snow for hikers who do not wish to compromise between weight, pleasure and performance in all types of snow.
At 1980g a pair (163cm) and a waist width of 80 to 81mm depending on the size you need, it is very agile, giving optimal rebound so you can explode the speedometer every time you go out. It's designed to cope with the big climbs, but is also at ease on the downhill, its weight/performance ratio is simply incredible! To achieve this level of performance, ZAG used an ultra-light high-end construction that combines multi-axial carbon/kevlar fibres and a Paulownia wood core. This makes for a lightweight ski to reach the summit that's still fast and sufficiently rigid on the descent to remain reassuring, even on the most technical routes!
To provide efficient skiability on all types of snow and more ease in powder, ZAG has designed the Adret 88 Lady with a short curve radius for more playfulness and performance. It features a pronounced light camber, combined with a light tip rocker (20%) for powerful support, improved fluidity In the series, stable edge grip and great longer over time on fresh snow. To facilitate pivoting in deep snow, ZAG has positioned a cleverly designed light tail rocker (10%). Handy when the route becomes narrower!
We're sure you get it, the Adret 88 Lady from ZAG is a real mountain ski, light, efficient and reassuring in all circumstances, designed for skiers from an advanced to expert level who want to go always higher in their ascents and have fun on each descent!
As part of the ZAGreen Program, for the purchase of a pair of Adret skis, Zag will donate 1% of the turnover generated to associations working to protect its favourite playground in the heart of the Chamonix valley. For more information about the programme, click here!

The Adret 88 Lady from ZAG is the big brother of the Adret 81. It provides a slightly more versatile solution to give more fun downhill and in powder snow, without sacrificing on the way up. Its construction is light but rigid enough, which makes it efficient both on the way up and down. The grip is good on hard snow, while in fresh snow the tip rocker works well and allows you to get off the snow faster.
A treat for skiers looking for lightness but who don't want to give up the pleasure of descending.
