Consumer Reports

The Faction Dictator 2.0X is an ideal ski for the value-seeking ripper-chick. It loves to roll around at high speeds, providing outstanding edge-hold and stability, and carves a clean arc with the best of the skis in our test. In choppy snow and difficult conditions, the Dictator mounts a military coup, razing down everything in its path. Faction is offering a powerful ski for an affordable price.
The Dictator needs a highly competent skier to drive it precisely. This ski is not a great choice for beginner to intermediate skiers who are still gaining confidence; these skis are bossy. You need to tell them who is actually in charge rather than allowing them to rule with impunity. This ski also lacks the exceptional flotation in powder that some skis in our review boast. However, if you are a highly skilled and assertive skier who wants a dependable ski for a good price, look no further than the Faction Dictator.

 At 95mm underfoot, the Dictator 2.0X is a versatile off-piste performer that's more than capable in deep snow but you might want something a little wider if you're heading in the direction of Japanese powder. All in all, a really solid, if not particularly playful ski that will satisfy powerful, confident female skiers. Whilst it definitely requires a solid drive, if you like to be in the front then you'll be pleased with how the Dictator 2

0X is a classic freeride, flat tail ski that demands to be skied with power, commitment and grandes cojones (or the female equivalent). With two layers of Titanal surrounding a lightweight poplar/paulownia core, the Dictator 2.0X has been built with strength and stability in mind and delivers excellent edge hold if you fully commit to the carve.

The Nordica Santa ANA 88 Women's Skis are ideal for advanced and expert skiers who ski mostly on-trail, but also who want some capability built in for adventure and off-trail skiing. The Santa ANA pairs a wood core with carbon and a sheet of terrain-specific metal for all-mountain versatility. The smooth rocker in both tip and tail, with camber underfoot provides balanced performance anywhere on the mountain.
Key Features:
- Performance Wood Core – The wood core make up is super responsive and provides plenty of power for groomers and on-piste skiing.
- Carbon Chassis – The carbon composite delivers a powerful and responsive rebound that makes the ski very playful.
- Terrain Specific Metal – This strategically placed metal dampens the ski without making it too heavy or burdensome.

 It also uses one thin sheet of metal which is different from past versions. They did do this a couple years ago but now they've changed it to a terrain specific metal. And what that means is the wider the ski gets the more specific the metal is. So you know with the narrower skis there's going to be a larger ratio of metal to wood in order to have that edge control and then as you get wider there's less metal to wood ratio in order to have that float that you need in more powder days

 You know it's an 88 waist width so it's going to be able to hit the woods, the bumps, carve, be on the mainly on-piece but you can go off-piece if you'd like. Ability wise you know a high intermediate to an advanced skier with that metal in there it's going to be a little bit more demanding but if you are an intermediate and you just really liked this ski maybe a shorter length would be better because it wouldn't be overpowering and you would be able to maneuver it but it is definitely geared towards that advanced lady that can power the ski under their foot and carve a turn from edge to edge. For more information on the Santa Anna series or any of the other Nordica skis check us out at SkiEssentials.com or follow us on YouTube

 In front of me I have Nordica Santa Anna 88 which is in their Santa Anna series. It's one up from their 84 and then there's a couple wider widths after this. Construction wise, like all the Santa Annas, it has a wood core with carbon into the construction that lightens it up and makes it very responsive. That carbon in there

 Also they've added their True Tip technology and what that does is it just reduces the weight in the tip of the skis which allows you to get into that turn and have an easier swing weight. It also is very responsive so if you're going to go over some crud it's going to absorb that feeling and take that away from your legs in the center of the ski and allow you to stay on edge. Another thing I really love about the Santa Annas is the shape of it. That shovel tip and a little bit of tail rocker allows you to be able to wiggle on the trees and the bumps if you'd like to but it also allows you to get on edge and hold that edge and that's what that metal does in the ski

 As I said, it's definitely geared more towards an advanced skier. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone with that metal in there. It's definitely a powerful feel. It's going to need someone who can really put the edges into the snow and not just kind of swoosh around

 It's definitely a powerful feel. It's going to need someone who can really put the edges into the snow and not just kind of swoosh around. Beautiful ski. Again, Nordica has done a stellar job with the graphics and the reinvention of their very popular Santa Ana series

 It's got a nice tip rocker that allows you to start that turn easily, get through that turn, ride right over the crud, and then those tails, not totally flat, so you can still release them easily, but it's got a nice edge that allows you to hold that turn for as long as you would like. As I said previously, that terrain-specific metal, they took out a lot of the weight from those two metals and made the ski a little bit more user-friendly, but it's still more on the advanced side of things. I would take this ski mainly on groomed trails, ice, through the trees and the bumps. It's not really meant for the powder, so it was more of your daily driver when there's no powder out there
