Nordica’s Santa Ana 110 left our testers in awe. The 110 features a sandwich construction with a combination of poplar, beech and balsa wood squished between two stiff sheets of Titanal metal for incredible stability and responsiveness, even at Mach speed. Our testers picked up on the hard-charging capabilities of this ski right away. Jenny Harris commented that it “feeds off the energy you put into it beautifully.” Greta Muxworthy said it’s “most suitable for pow days but still really fun in the bumps!” Whether sailing through deeper snow or gobbling up leftovers is on the agenda, reach for the ever-powerful, ever-playful Santa Ana 110.
