Product Info
A lightweight yet wide backcountry ski for hard charging ladies. The Coalition Snow La Nieve Skis feature an early rise tip rocker with camber underfoot and mild tail rocker that handles pow and variable conditions with aplomb. A smart combination of ash and basswood gives the La Nieve a solid backbone for critical conditions, while a medium turn radius and noticeable tip taper helps with maneuverability and float in the softies!
Product Details
Rocker Type
Powder Rocker – An early rise tip profile with a directional shape that pairs off-road stability and soft snow performance with control. The rocker in the tip handles crud and bumps and provides maximum float in soft snow, and the slightly eased tail provides control and stays conveniently out of the way in a kick turn.
Sidecut
Single Radius Sidecut | 18m – Ideal for medium length turns and shines negotiating trees, bumps an variable terrain.
Core
Lightweight Construction – This sub 7 pound layup makes uphill travel easy without compromising downhill performance. Constructed with a featherweight backcountry specific layup that pairs lightweight basswood with a dense and stable ash core.
Binding Compatibility
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

Terrain
Big Mountain Big mountain skis are designed for charging big lines with high speeds and big airs. These skis varry in width from wide, powder-oriented skis for skiing Alaska spines to narrower, mixed condition skis for ripping the beat up headwall at your local mountain. Skis in this category tend to be on the stiffer side, often with more rocker in the tip and less in the tail. Powder These skis are for the deep days. If you like to find powder stashes at your local resort, go on backcountry missions for the freshest of fresh or heli ski trips to BC, powder skis are what you need to stay afloat. Skis in the powder category are wide and most often have some form of rocker or early rise plus a relatively soft flex. Many powder skis today are versatile enough to handle mixed conditions and harder snow. 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 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/Rocker
More
Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber/Rocker Rocker/Camber/Rocker skis have the playfulness and float of a rockered ski as well as the added edge hold of a cambered ski. The contact points on skis with this profile are closer towards the middle of the ski than a fully cambered ski, but still not underfoot. The cambered midsection provides a longer effective edge on hardpack, increasing edge hold and stability, while the rockered tip and tail provide floatation in deeper snow and allow the ski to initiate and release from turns easier.

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.
