The take

The women's Enforcer — in the best possible way.

The Santa Ana 87 is the narrowest in Nordica's women's all-mountain line, and it shares DNA with the Enforcer. Same Pulse Core concept, same sandwich construction, same titanal-and-rubber dampening. The difference is the tuning — shorter length range, lighter weight, and the widest titanal sheet in the Santa Ana lineup (the metal narrows as the ski gets wider).

87mm is the groomer-first width. It carves with precision, holds an edge on hardpack, and transitions smoothly. The titanal gives it authority that most women's skis at this width simply don't have. A lot of 87mm women's skis feel soft and vague. The Santa Ana doesn't.

Compared to the Blizzard Black Pearl 88, the Santa Ana 87 is stiffer, more damp, and more authoritative at speed. The Black Pearl is lighter and more forgiving. If you're a strong skier who pushes, the Santa Ana wins. If you want an easy-day cruiser, the Black Pearl is softer.

Four sizes from 150 to 167. The 150 works for smaller skiers down to about 5'0". The 167 is the choice for taller women who like to charge.
