The Nordica Badmind skis return this year as a hard charging editors’ pick. Of all the things testers admired, stability was the number one attribute. “These skis charge!” exclaimed one. “Stable at high speeds, great flex for the pipe and for big landings.” The fully cambered ski has a mix of ash and poplar wood at the core, and carbon reinforced edges for increased stability. This sturdy build and a wide array of lengths make it a great fit for anybody who wants to charge.
