Part of an all-new women’s lineup from Nordica is the Belle to Belle, an ambitious, turny and fun ski for the frontside. With the highest overall carving score of any all-mountain Editor’s Pick, the Belle to Belle is at home slicing up groomers or thrashing through the crud. The early rise gives the ski a playful feel and easier turn initiation for those less-than-perfect days. The directional nature of the ski, combined with traditional camber through two-thirds of the length, gives the ski stability at high speed. Final tester assessment: “They were bossy little suckers that Euro-style on-piste skiers would love.”
