Nordica Speedmachine Mach 2 XBi (2008)
These Nordicas like speed. Lay them over into a big arc and instead of the pop of a carving ski you get the smooth release of a cruiser.
Props
They hug the contours of the hill.
Gripes
A little sluggish at low speeds.
Tester's Take
"Precise and accurate, but surprisingly forgiving." —Bill McSherry
