The Nordica Hell and Back I-Core skis take you above the lift lines to untouched fields of powder.

  • If you love to ski on and off piste, and you occasionally hike for your turns, these skis will move to the front of your lineup
  • 98mm waist offers stable flotation in soft powder and helps you stay above crud and crusty snow
  • Flexible wood and composite core produces a ski that's lightweight and easy to use while hiking, yet provides responsive power on fast descents
  • Nordica Hell and Back I-Core skis feature an early rise tip that resists diving into deep snow and makes it easy to initiate turns
  • Tip rocker extends 340 - 400mm from snow contact point depending on ski length
  • Standard camber underfoot enhances maneuverability on groomers and variable snow; when weighted, 65% of the ski contacts the snow
  • Large sidecut radius is designed to excel when heading off-piste
  • Base or topsheet color may vary from online photo
  • Requires bindings with wide brakes

Recommended rider weights are a general guideline. Please keep in mind that additional factors can affect which size will best suit your needs. If you have questions regarding ski and snowboard sizing, please contact us at 1-800-426-4840.
