Not sure they're available yet but I haven't done any research as I have zero interest in that line of skis. Name is almost as good as the shit Rossignol is coming up with these days.

Yeah, I saw that back in March and saw the Skiessentials.com review as well. They seemed to like em, and description is interesting. First hand user review is good though. And yep the ski names are designed to tap into the bloke in the ski buyer isn't it. It would be improved no end with a couple of suffixes like GTR, turbo etc. Names aside though the descriptions I've heard seem interesting.

Celery@Thegenericskier are you the person whose ridden these? I know a nser has
Yes, they’re incredible skis but durability is pretty bad. Been through 2 pairs this season, first one is unrideable while the second pair delamed in 4 days
No joke the tails delamed from just skiing, took one heavy slam on the tails ripping the top sheet up almost to the heel piece. By the end of the day they were borderline unrideable so I finished em off
This is how it started

And this right here is why its good to get first hand review!!! Far out, even a heavy landing shouldn't rip up top sheet like that, certainly not after a few days... I've seen a fair few people wind up for a big spin and pull a binding heel piece off, but nothing like this. And I've pulled a screw on toe piece by stacking it off a 25m hip, but this is well bad. I've had delamination before, top sheet glue started to give on the Atomic Theory I had, but that was after about 5 years park skiing in them, so I didn't hold that against them, and it wasn't even bad enough to chuck em, in the end it was cause the core was compromised after the screw went on that slam.
How have Nordica been about this? In terms of after sales? Giving you replacements, or trying to tell you that you abused the kit?

They hooked it up with skis since last season and are pretty relaxed with me sending skis back in multiple pieces. Though I’m not sure how it will be for people who actually buy them
