Nordica Speedmachine 10 XBS Ski Hire and Equipment Review

More forgiving still, and without the large tip that "grabs and rails" at the beginning of the turn, the 10 is suited to confident blue run skiers wanting to feel a carve but not necessarily spend all day on their edges. The shape of this ski is very forgiving and ideal for intermediates. Shorter turns with the same performance is to be found with Volkl's 4* star, or the Streetracer 10 from Salomon, for a change try the Line Assassin or Movement FCS.
