Still, this ski is not at the cutting edge of this category. Good for intermediate lightweight skiers in soft snow, the White Star MX was perhaps in the wrong category. Got to be forward on them or you're doing super-G turns. Excellent initiation as long as I was forward. Very stable in rail-type carving turns.
Versatility is compromised.
Cuts the chop without a hop. Respectable feel transferred from the snow, but just missing that little something to give you a power feeling. Rare unanimity among our testers on the Nordica K0.0, all of whom praised its GS turn performance. The ski was damp, solid and carved well, but lacked that extra oomph to put it into the top echelon. Bolsters your confidence with its stability and arc-tightening ability.
