Nordica Olympia Drive (2009)
Usually you get what you pay for. With the Drive, you get a lot more. Vertical sidewalls and laminate construction give it the power and edge-grip of skis in higher-performance categories, without the higher price tag. The Drive is silky, stable and stuck to the snow. Some felt it was best for mellow skiers; others thought it best bent by experts. That leads us to conclude that the training wheels are up to you. "The ultimate cruiser," said MacConnell.
