The Rossignol Nova Carve is the approachable entry into Rossignol's women's frontside collection. Smooth turn initiation, predictable edge hold, and a forgiving flex pattern add up to a ski that supports skill development rather than testing it. Newer skiers working on linking clean turns get a composed carver that never feels like too much ski. Warm, forgiving, and comfortably roomy, the Pure 70 X GW helps newer skiers progress with confidence.

Who it's for:

Women new to skiing or in their first few seasons, working on linking clean turns on groomed runs. The forgiving flex pattern suits skiers who are still building strength and confidence.

Things to consider:

This is a skill-building ski with a natural ceiling, and a skier who progresses quickly will want more support within a season or two. It's also strictly a groomer ski, with no real ability in soft or off-piste snow.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Going slightly shorter than the skier's height is the safer choice while technique is forming, because a shorter ski finishes a turn more easily and builds confidence faster. Length can come later, once turns are consistent and speed feels comfortable.
