Product Info
If you're looking for a powder-capable ski that'll swivel underfoot in tight spaces but still let you stand on the gas and straightline yourself out of trouble, you'll have a hard time finding a better candidate than the Nordica Patron Skis. Wide but not overwhelming at 113 mm underfoot, the Patron pivots almost effortlessly when you need it to, but the Powder CamRock profile lets you carve a clean turn at speed by engaging tons of edge. One of the best all-rounders out there for soft snow oriented freeriders.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Powder camRock – Significant rocker in both tip and tail with mild camber underfoot lets you float effortlessly in pow, yet track with authority. The low, broad blunt nose design maximizes snow contact when the ski is on edge and reduces unwanted tip vibration.
Core
Energy 2 Carbon – Offers a comfortable and playful ride with a full ash/poplar wood core from tip to tail and two layers of Carbon over the edges to provide maximum agility and stability in all conditions.
Laminates
Prepreg Carbon – Two carbon laminates above and below the core.
Fiberglass
Binding Reinforcement
Polyamide Top Sheet
Sidewalls
ABS Sidewalls – Helps dampen hard landings while decreasing vibration fatigue.
Base
UHMW Base – Ultra High Molecular Weight sintered graphite Gallium base.
Binding Compatibility
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

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. 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.

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.

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.
