Product Info
Conquer Hell and live to tell about it with the Nordica Hell & Back Skis. High Rise rocker profile gives you great lift in pow while keeping your turns crisp and clean on compact snow. Whether it's a Hellishly steep chute in the backcountry or a 100% skied out day under the lifts, the Hell & Back skis are sure to take you through the sketchiest terrain and give you the best stories to tell at the bar later that night.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Early Rise – Increased flotation, velocity and maneuverability in soft snow due to the contact point of the tip of the ski being moved back roughly 25%.
Flex
Medium – Provides float and rides "fast" while still providing enough flex to allow for fast and precise turns
Core
I-Core – A specifically designed, very lightweight wood core for easier hiking without sacrificing on snow performance
Laminates
SW CA Laminate
Topsheet
Poliamide
Sidewalls
ABS Sidewall – Helps dampen hard landings while decreasing vibration fatigue

Terrain:
All-Mountain, Alpine Touring
More
Terrain
All-Mountain All-mountain skis are designed to handle anything you throw at them including powder, ice, groomers, steeps, heavy snow, and everything in between, but they aren’t necessarily a master of any one terrain. If you’re only going to own one ski to do it all, this is what you want. All-mountain skis generally have what we call mid-fat waists that range from 80-110 mm. Alpine Touring Also known as backcountry skis, alpine touring (AT) skis are designed for going uphill as well as downhill. These skis are typically light for their width and many feature fittings that accept climbing skins. AT skis vary in width and weight, with the wider heavier versions usually used for winter/deep snow touring and the skinnier, lighter skis usually used for spring/summer/long distance touring.

Ability Level:
Advanced-Expert
More
Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.

Rocker Type:
Rocker/Camber
More
Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber Rocker/Camber skis pair a traditional cambered profile underfoot with an elongated, early rise tip borrowed from fully rockered skis. This profile places the front contact point further back from the tip, while the rear contact point remains close to the tail. The rockered tip allows for better flotation and less edge catch for increased float in deep snow, while the cambered rear stores and transmits energy similarly to a fully cambered ski.

Turning Radius:

Turning Radius
Medium 17-22 m radius is best for all-mountain and park & pipe.
- Core/Laminates: Wood

Tail Type:
Partial Twin Tip
More
Tail Type
Partial Twin Tip Partial twin tip skis have a tail that is turned up, but not as much as the tip. This gives you the ability to ski backwards and back out of tight spaces, but these skis are mainly designed to ski forward.
