Nordica Enforcer 100 review 2019

PROSKILAB™ reviewers' comments

Another legendary ski, the Nordica Enforcer 100 has always impressed the PROSKILAB testers and has won a "Best Ski" award in the past.

Since then, the ski has frequently been chosen for the PROSKILAB review. It continues to do well, but it fell a few places in the rankings this year due to softer snow conditions and to the arrival of new competitors (in particular, the Experience 94 Ti).

There is a good balance between on-piste and off-piste performance. The ski performs well on the groomers. It has good flex distribution, and the testers were impressed by the ease of turn initiation, turn quality, and stability at high speed. In long turns, the ski grips really well and is "smooth and fluid."

Off-piste, the large waist (100 mm) makes it easier to float in powder and plow through difficult snow. This relatively stiff ski cuts through crud pretty well, except for the tip which is a bit too soft and sometimes tends to slow down the ski. (We already pointed out this phenomenon last year.)

Some testers were disappointed with the lack of agility due to the weight of the ski (around 2.2kg per ski). They said that sometimes the ski didn't seem to want to turn.

The Enforcer 100 is a great choice for intermediate and expert skiers who love arcing big turns on groomers and in powder.

Manufacturer's remarks

The Enforcer 100 has won its share of awards – and smiles – thanks to its legendary all-terrain performance. To achieve an extremely smooth and stable ride, the ski combines a full wood core with two metal sheets. Not only does this dampen vibrations, but it also improves the ski's stability and responsiveness. Finally, the early rise tip, rocker in the tail, and traditional camber underfoot ensure better flotation in soft snow and will boost your confidence in variable conditions. In short, it is a modern ski that allows you to ski how and where you want. Extremely maneuverable, powerful, and agile, the Enforcer 100 is ready for anything.
