Returning unchanged for the new season but for a simple graphic refresh, the Nordica Santa Ana 84 Skis are back for yet another winter of impeccable precision on-piste. As the narrowest ski in the Santa Ana lineup, the Santa Ana 84 offers the most frontside-oriented performance out of the series and appeals to a wider range of female athletes who prefer to ski on-trail. Though equipped with a construction very similar to that of its wider counterparts, the Santa Ana 84 contains significantly more metal in its build and thus, boasts a stiffer, more stable ride that loves to be on edge. In extending through the tips and tails to the very edge of the ski, Nordica’s Terrain-Specific metal laminate endows the Santa Ana 84 with the precision and power it needs to execute the cleanest carves on-piste, resulting in a ride that is not only quick from edge-to-edge but equally flexy throughout. A 14-meter turn radius at the 158cm length is an obvious ode to such agility and—when combined with a strong tail shape—pays tribute to the Santa Ana 84’s undeniable ability to absolutely crush on groomed terrain.
