Because extreme carving is not suitable for most of woman. And this is not due to anatomy but due to clothing:
most riders are regular (as name also implies). This means that when men execute toeside turn (where chest is against slope), then the windstopper on top of front zipper is correctly positioned (opens to the right) and does not gather any snow. But for women the windstopper opens to the left and on regular's toeside turn it will collect snow. And who wants to ride with jacket full of snow?
I guess that's the reason why Sam uses (at least used previous years) men's jacket, as she is regular. Also some other regular women in ECS seem to use mens jackets...
:P

I've never thought about that... Good idea ! But surely no mark will make two jakets, one for goofies and one for regular.
