2027 Nordica Santa Ana 97 Women's Skis

We like the Santa Ana 97 because it doesn't make you choose between carving a good turn and having some fun off the groomers. It has enough structure to feel composed when you pick up speed, but the more forgiving tail gives it a little extra freedom when you want to change things up.

Consider Another Option If

You spend most of your time carving firm groomers and prefer a narrower, quicker edge-to-edge ski, or you're looking for something wider and more powder-focused.

• All-mountain resort skiing: Skiers who regularly move between groomed runs and ungroomed terrain.
• Mixed snow conditions: Days that start on firm snow and lead into softer or variable conditions.
• Confident, versatile skiing: Skiers who appreciate a supportive ride without giving up maneuverability.
• An everyday resort setup: Those who want one ski with a broad range of downhill capabilities.

• TSM Pulse Core: Combines a full wood core, an elastomer layer and terrain-specific metal to dampen vibrations while maintaining responsive handling.
• Terrain Specific Metal: A tailored metal reinforcement balances edge control and stability with the ski's all-mountain character.
• Unlocked Tail Shape: Added tail rise makes it easier to release a turn, pivot and adjust your line in tighter terrain.
• True Tip Design: Reduces material toward the tip for a more responsive, maneuverable feel.
• Full Sidewall Construction: Supports direct power transfer to the edges for controlled turns on firmer snow.
