Full Description
With its dual radius concept and tip and tail rocker, the Layla is a lot more versatile than you might initially expect from a ski that's mid 90s underfoot, though of course it still prefers deeper and softer conditions.
Scott's exclusive Venturi tip is hollowed out, reducing surface pressure and making the ski more manoeuvrable.
The light core is designed specifically for women and uses 100% poplar with five milled air channels to reduce weight even further without sacrificing performance. The wood core also gives a damp ski which absorbs vibrations and variable terrain for a smoother, less tiring ride.
And with a 12 metre sidecut radius in the 158 ski, the Layla will handle itself pretty well in shorter turns on harder snow as well.

TOP TIP
Ski Servicing
Watch out for shops that cut corners – and costs – by hardly ever servicing their skis, or just giving them a quick wax. Unserviced or badly serviced skis can ruin your whole week. Why pay for substandard kit?
