The 2025 Nordica Unleashed 98 Ice is a powerful all-mountain twin tip with loads of both freeride and freestyle capabilities. With very few limitations and a number of applications, the Unleashed 98 puts a smile on the face of everyone that skis it. From racers to freestyle skiers, there is top end performance for every kind of skier out there.

Why we like it:

The balance of characteristics between freestyle, freeride, and frontside carving is just astounding. Every single tester we have ever had on this ski has absolutely loved it, and that’s a LOT of testers. Racers love it for the way it carves while freestylers love its park capabilities.

Who it's for:

Advanced to expert skiers who seek a twin tip that is high performing everywhere on the mountain, from trees to the park and back bowls to the groomers.

Highlights:

Nordica uses a Performance wood core which supplies a sturdy yet supple flex pattern resulting in a smooth and energetic feel. Carbon Fiber Glass uses carbon fiber stringers incorporated into fiberglass laminates which supply loads of energy and spring for a reactive yet smooth flex pattern. One sheet of terrain specific metal is then used to dampen vibrations as well as provide edge grip on firmer snow in the form of torsional stiffness. Finally, True Tip is used in the tips and tails which tapers the sidewalls and wood core to decrease swing weight for optimal maneuverability and quickness.

Things to consider:

The Unleashed 98 is not necessarily a drifty or surfy twin tip, in turn it is actually quite precise. If you are not an aggressive skier or less experienced, you will likely find that this precision and power is a bit too much for your liking.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Skis true to size.
