Dirt:

That is a loaded question as a decent slalom ski can cost approx $300 or so, but an intermediate / advance premium ski can cost you upwards of $500 with double bindings.

My wife has been skiing on an O'Brien World Team ski (decent ski) I purchased back in 1984 and she still likes it and I believe O'Brien still makes this ski.

I would look on Ebay and see what is available in USED and you can probably save a few dollars or more.

My daughter now want slalom ski and spoke to a friend who has been skiing all his life and he recommended highly the Connelly Concept with double fastback bindings - This ski and binding combo is around -- $500 or so.

Remember diff size ski for diff weights and also diff speeds of the boat. Just google waterski sizing or something similar and you should be able to find plenty of info on the correct size ski.
