With an 82 mm waist and a construction identical to its wider siblings, this ski is purpose-built for carving precision, quick transitions, and confident control on firm snow, maintaining the composed, quiet ride that defines the series.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy we like it:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt’s a performance-oriented frontside ski with real backbone and none of the chatter, and is a perfect blend of stability and agility for confident on-trail skiing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho it's for:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntermediate to advanced women skiers who spend most of their time on groomers but want a lively, high-quality ski with room to explore bumps or the occasional side stash.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHighlights:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLike the rest of the Santa Ana lineup, the 82 uses a full wood core, Terrain-Specific Titanal, and Nordica’s Pulse Core, an elastomer insert that helps absorb vibration and smooth out the ride. The result is a narrow ski that feels planted and quiet on edge, with enough pop and rebound to make carving feel rewarding and athletic. A touch of rocker in the tip and tail adds forgiveness and helps with turn initiation and release, giving the ski a bit more versatility for performance beyond perfect corduroy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThings to consider:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile the Santa Ana 82 is quicker and more nimble than its wider counterparts, its narrow waist means it isn’t suited for soft snow or off-piste conditions. Skiers who like to explore deeper snow or want a looser, surfier feel should look to the Santa Ana 93 or 97. This model is also best appreciated by skiers with solid technique; beginners or those seeking a super light and forgiving feel might prefer something a little softer or less demanding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFit \u0026amp; sizing considerations:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese skis run true to size. Stick with your standard length for stability and edge grip, or size down slightly if you prioritize agility and maneuverability.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nordica","offers":[{"title":"150","offer_id":50065629151528,"sku":"0A548900|150","price":649.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"155","offer_id":50065629184296,"sku":"0A548900|155","price":649.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"161","offer_id":50065629217064,"sku":"0A548900|161","price":649.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"167","offer_id":50065629249832,"sku":"0A548900|167","price":649.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/5135\/6456\/files\/2026-nordica-santa-ana-82-women-s-skis-0a548900-0a548900.jpg?v=1772815072","url":"https:\/\/checkout.skiessentials.com\/products\/2026-nordica-santa-ana-82-women-s-skis-0a548900","provider":"Ski Essentials","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
