The Nomad has been a fan favorite since its release in 2012, and it has become Icelantic’s number one selling ski. The reason? It’s all about versatility. Tip and tail rocker with camber underfoot combine stability and deftness; a middle-of-the-road turn radius allows for quick turns and long arcing sketches into the mountainside; and a poplar wood core with triaxial-braided fiberglass provides pop, weight savings and stiffness. How’s that for do it all? “I’m always impressed by Icelantic’s lineup,” said Madeline Dunn. “The Nomad 105 is a poppin’ choice, and I’d pay to ski it again.” Ski tester Mikey Wechsler called it “an ultra-playful ski that can and will do everything.”
