NORDICA IS READY TO UNLEASH THE BEAST WITH ITS BRAND-NEW LINEUP FOR 2023. The granddaddy of the series, the Nordica Unleashed 108 is made to let loose in the most precarious places on the mountain. Eager to bootpack up from the chair and hit that couly you’ve been staring up at for seasons? How about a quick dance through the trees and bumps? At 108 mm underfoot, this freeride plank is just wide enough to plunder every last pocket of fresh while the steep tip shovel provides easy turn initiation and consistent snow deflection and the twin tail makes for effortless schmearing and confident switch riding. Thanks to a carbon-reinforced wood core with the brand’s proprietary Terrain Specific Metal—a layer of Titanal in the core engineered for specific length/width combinations—there’s absolutely no speed limit on the Nordica Unleashed 108. “Great edge control and excellent stability for a mid-waist all-mountain ski,” says Colorado-born John Weir.
