    Nordica Enforcer 99: Nordica's expertise!

    monax1 · 27 Apr 2025 · 179 cm tested

    Reviewed as the 2026 model.

    The tester rated this ski 10/10, considering it an excellent one-ski quiver for the entire season. More versatile and lighter feeling than the prior 100mm edition, it carves well with classic alpine manners and lively tail rebound. Off-piste, it delivers confidence-inspiring high-speed stability and comfortably handles chopped-up snow, while remaining surprisingly accessible and not overly demanding across variable spring conditions.

    “Le 99 s'avère performant mais relativement facile” (monax1)

    Why this one: Tester weighs 79 kg, within 20 kg of you.

    Best All-Mountain Skis of 2026-2027 (Staff top picks) (Nordica Enforcer 99)

    Powder7 · 14 Oct 2026

    Reviewed as the 2027 model.

    Featuring dual sheets of titanal and tweaked tip and tail splay, the Enforcer 99 (and sister ski Santa Ana) maintains its reputation as a damp, powerful bulldozer. The revised rocker makes it easier to navigate bumps and tighter turns without compromising its exceptional crud-busting stability.

    2027 Blizzard Rustler 10 - SkiEssentials Ski Test Review

    SkiEssentials · 17 Aug 2026 · 174 cm tested

    Reviewed as the 2027 model.

    The Blizzard Rustler 10 is reviewed as a carryover model featuring a TrueBlend wood core and FluxForm metal laminate. It offers an energetic and balanced flex suitable for mixed snow, variable terrain, and soft days. The ski balances strong on-trail carving edge hold with floatation and maneuverability in trees and bumps thanks to prominent tip and tail splay.

    Reviewed as the 2027 model.

    Testers evaluate the revamped Blizzard Rustler 10 at Mammoth Mountain. The updated design features a modified titanal frame and more tail rocker, resulting in a surfy, playful ride that slashes with ease while inspiring confidence on varied terrain. It provides dependable edge hold and fast stability thanks to underfoot metal, while navigating chop smoothly across the mountain.

    “Now surfier than ever with a feel that makes you want to slash” (SkiTalk Test Team)
