2022 Nordica Enforcer 110 Free

Three winters ago, I was able to saddle up an Enforcer 110 Free in the conditions for which it was made: lots of tracked-up pow on-trail and lush powder lines in the trees. It was a storm day with blustery winds, so if you weren’t in the woods you couldn’t see squat. The situation called for a ski that could absolutely care less about what lay ahead. The Enforcer 110 either rolled over or obliterated whatever dared cross its path. Its ability to plane over uneven surfaces allows it to ride high enough that it’s always easy to throw ‘em sideways to scrub speed or foot-swivel a short-radius turn. If the crud ever turns confrontational and tries to toss you around, it’s a sign you’re not running them at high enough rpm’s. A 110mm-wide ski with two .4mm sheets of Titanal on board needs wind in its sails to become energized. You have to trust that if you aim it downhill it will reward your faith with rebound energy that will make it ten times easier to steer. While it never hurts to be a strong technical skier, in its shorter lengths the Enforcer 110 is forgiving enough to serve lighter or less powerful skiers as well as the community of hard chargers. For its big-tent accessibility, we again award the Enforcer 110 Free a Silver Skier Selection.
