2026 Rossignol Nova 10 Women's Skis with Dalbello Boots and Poles

Race-inspired construction in a women's frontside package makes the Rossignol Nova 10 a fluid, powerful carver. It handles a range of turn shapes and speeds with an intuitive feel, staying nimble at moderate pace and composed when you open things up. Skiers who want dedicated groomer performance without a punishing ride will find it delivers smooth, controlled turns all day. We paired the Nova 10 with the Dalbello Cabrio 85 MV boot because it's a comfortable, easy to ski boot that offers great performance for progressing skiers honing their fundamentals. The three-piece design makes these easy to get on and off, while the women's specific liner is comfy over a long day of skiing. The medium flex means these boots are game for taking it easy, but there's no shortage of performance when you want to push harder.

Who it's for:

Intermediate to advanced women who want a dedicated frontside ski with genuine performance behind it. It fits skiers looking for grip and precision on trail who don't want to be punished for easing off.

Things to consider:

It is a frontside ski through and through, and a skier who regularly ventures into soft snow or off-piste terrain will find the narrow waist limiting. The firmer flex also asks more of a skier than the softer Novas do.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Match the length to the speeds you actually ski rather than the ones you aspire to, since a carving ski that's too long is hard to release at the end of a turn. Skiers who mix short and long turns are usually best served right in the middle of their range.
