For good reason, truly massive skis tend to scare off a good portion of skiers. Not only is the main use case (super deep powder days) an exceedingly rare occasion for most of us, the technique and strength required to pilot a pro-level big mountain ski is a bit more than the average skier can realistically handle. However, there's something just deeply satisfying about clicking into a pair of absolute boats to blast through grin-inducing depths of snow on a powder day. That's where Nordica's newest and largest addition to the backcountry freeride-focused Unleashed range–the all-new Unleashed 120–joins the fray.
While this might have been one of the largest skis we tested this year (at 190cm long, with a 120mm waist), the ski actually possesses a surprisingly friendly character with easily-harnessable performance. Don't take that to mean that the ski can't handle huge lines, high speeds, and the deepest snow (it certainly can), but it won't tire you out immediately.
