Women's Nordica 168cm All Mountain Elexa Skis With Nordica Adv 10 Bindings (New)(SY2780)

168cm Sidecut: 127/75/105 Radius: 15m The Elexa is one of Nordica's entry level women's specific skis. Like the HR74 the Elexa uses a 3-d ribbed construction to impart more strength and stiffness than would normally be possible at lower price points. To their credit, Nordica does not just use a different color of paint on the unisex architecture for their women's ski. The structural ribs on the Elexa are lower profile than on the unisex ski and this results in a flex that is ideally suited to the woman in this performance range. This is not a noodley soft ski that would inhibit the skiers upside potential. Rather this is a medium flex with a deep sidecut and a small (but proper) amount of tip and tail rocker. This provides a combination of shape and sidecut to help the skier coming from rentals to truly develop some skills. The Elexa also offers enough performance to satisfy that skier when they do develop those skills. The “EVO” name in the skis title reflects the fact that this ski is sold as a combined system ski that integrates the 311 binding with the EVO plate system.
