Women

“It didn’t miss a beat, from powder to packed powder to an icy pitch to huge moguls.” —Erika Northrop, Christy Sports Area Manager

The Crowd Favorite, Reimagined

Last year’s MSP CC blew most testers’ buckles off. It delivered performance and power that elite women skiers loved—though it may have been a bit much for the average rider.

This season, 4FRNT listened and revamped their best-selling women’s ski to be:

  • Just as stable and aggressive

  • A bit more forgiving for aspiring rippers

  • An even better daily driver for advanced skiers

What Testers Had to Say

“I didn’t know what to expect, but I was blown away by the MSP CC. I could ski it all day.”
—Samantha Berman, SKI Editor


Berman—at 5'3" and one of the more petite testers—found the ski to be:

  • Stable at speed

  • Crud-busting

  • Easy to initiate turns

  • Leg-friendly for long days

She called it a “mind-reading ski” that “won her heart.”

Performance Across Conditions

This ski sits on the wider side of the all-mountain spectrum , which makes it a great choice for Western skiers who frequently find soft snow.

That said, testers praised it for:

  • Strong carving performance

  • Confidence on hardpack and icy steeps

  • Versatility in moguls and mixed terrain

“My face cramped from extreme smiling the whole way down from the top.” —Erika Northrop

Daily Driver Energy

The MSP CC was described as the “favorite sneakers” of skis 


  • Comfy and predictable

  • Playful but powerful

  • Stable enough for high speeds

  • Responsive enough for dynamic carving

Depending on your ability, the MSP CC will either hold your hand or challenge you to let ’er rip .

Any Drawbacks?

There were only a couple:

  • Graphics didn’t wow some testers

  • Still a bit aggressive for beginners

But for advanced skiers looking for a ski that can do it all— without compromise —the MSP CC continues to set the bar.
