The Helldorado is a new ski in the Nordica lineup, and it hit the mark perfectly. “I had fun on these in bad conditions. Can’t imagine how good it would be in better snow,” commented one tester. “It kills all over, and it even looks awesome.” This is a big ski with two sheets of metal running from tip to tail and lots of tip and tail rocker, so it is not for the faint of heart. Though our bigger testers scored them higher, one smaller tester said the Helldorado is “surprisingly nimble and sound. It carves amazingly for this size of ski.”
