The Nordica Unleashed 98 CA skis pair a Lite Performance Wood Core with a GR400 Carbon Glass laminate, cutting swing weight and sharpening handling at slower speeds. That lighter build makes quick work of bumps and trees, where a skier needs to redirect the ski fast rather than hold a long, high-speed arc. A Rocker/Camber/Rocker profile and Partial Twin Tip tail round out the shape, easing turn initiation and letting the ski release cleanly out of tight turns. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I threaded the Unleashed 98 CA through a tight tree run without ever feeling like I was fighting the ski to change direction. It comes around fast enough that bumps stop feeling like obstacles and start feeling like rhythm."
