Nordica Blower (2009)
(BEST IN TEST) Enters medium- and large-radius turns easily, calmly holds them, and does so better than all others in this test.
Props
Powerful and carvy, but it straightlines and floats comfortably too.
Gripes
None, though a couple of testers dreamed about skiing the 193-centimeter version.
Tester's Take
"If you want a fun, playful ski, and you don't ski switch, this is it." -Jeremy Benson
PRICE (MSRP): $885.00
