Nordica Unleashed 108 (Powder Ski 2023/2024)

Product Summary

This ski is best suited for aggressive skiers who want to push the ski to its limit. The Unleashed 108 is a pure freeride ski. Riding on groomers is no problem but due to its fairly wide waist the ski has a strong bias towards powder runs. The ski is available from 174 to 191cm. This ski is a real cruiser and loves long turns. With a radius from 18.30 m to 20.50 m (depending on the lengh of the ski) you shouldn't expect too much in short turns.

The ski in details

Make the mountains your canvas with Nordica’s Unleashed 108. Built for the modern freeskier, it craves deep snow and big terrain. To boost your confidence, the Unleashed 108 pairs a wood core with carbon and a sheet of terrain-specific metal. This dampens vibrations to keep you smiling–no matter the conditions. Traditional camber underfoot provides excellent response and plenty of pop. And the ski’s early rise tip and tail maximize flotation on deep days. Playful and powerful, the Unleashed enables you to let loose your creativity with every turn–no matter the terrain. Make each day a masterpiece with Nordica’s Unleashed 108.

Technologies

UNLEASHED ROCKER DESIGN
Longer running base length = Less tip and tail rocker depth to better support the playful tip and tail shovel shapes

  • more turned up tail = easier to swivel and break free while also offering a more favorable setup for ridding switch.
  • steeper tip shovel = more tip initiation and deflection in soft snow.


TRUE TIP
By trimming the amount of heavy ABS plastic in the tip and extending the lightweight wood core into this area with a taper that further reduces weight, Nordica enhanced playfulness and maneuverability of the ski without compromising that unmatchable feeling of powerful and control. The next generation is upon us.

  • lighter
  • smoother
  • more maneuverable


TERRAIN SPECIFIC METAL
By adding the same shaped metal plate inside the skis, it increases proportionately with the decrease of the last. Trough this technology, Nordica was able to design unique constructions better suited for different terrain. The narrower Santa Ana have more power and stability on trail, while the wider constructions are more enjoyable off-piste and on softer snow.

  • lighter with metal dampening
  • stability where you need it
  • playfulness where you want it


GEOMETRIC RUNNING BASE
The running base design has a specific geometric shape to show two features of the ski: A horizontal cut indicates where the rocker starts. The intersection of the diagonal cut with the edge shows

Ski review Nordica Unleashed 108

At the 2023/2024 WorldSkitest the skis were closely evaluated in the category „Freeride II“. Tester opinion: "In an extremely strong field, the "Nordica" performed very well! If you look closely at the ratings, you can clearly see that the "Unleashed 108" is one of the top models. The only outlier is the power expenditure. But that only means that anyone with the necessary power and technique will have a lot of fun with this model."
