The Nordica Steadfast 85 DC (Double Core) is a high-performance all-mountain ski designed for advanced and expert skiers who demand precision and stability, with a strong emphasis on frontside carving. While the 85 mm waist provides all-mountain versatility, the ski's construction and shaping lean heavily toward aggressive, powerful performance on groomed runs.
The key to its balanced yet powerful feel is Nordica's Energy Ti Double Core construction. This unique design features four horizontal layers: a top wood core, a Titanal layer for power and edge grip, a Pulse Core (elastomer) sheet for exceptional dampening, and a bottom wood core. This sandwich creates an incredibly smooth, powerful, and quiet ride, minimizing vibrations (chatter) at high speeds. The ski features an All-Mountain Rocker profile (Rocker/Camber/Rocker), which provides excellent energy and rebound out of the turn, combined with a quick 15.3 m turn radius (at 174 cm) that encourages medium-radius, high-energy carving. The integrated Marker TPX 12 FDT System Bindings ensure optimal energy transfer and flex.
