2025 Nordica Enforcer Ski Collection Introduction and First Impressions with SkiEssentials.com

[@AdamDaigian]

Couldn't resist picking up a pair of the black enforcer 110s 🔥

[@RicketySkiReviews]

Great video! Cheers from Idaho

[@SkiEssentials]

Thanks!

[@jons7e]

Enforcer is basically an extremely stable crud cutter, which gives you a lot of confidence

[@SkiEssentials]

They still do that for sure, but are adding in some zip and pep to their step as well! Considerably more versatile and energetic than ever before but still with a dual-metal laminate style of confidence in crud.

[@JeffTucc]

I was about to pull the trigger on E100 this weekend, very motivated to try the 99 now

[@SkiEssentials]

Definitely try it. It may not completely take over where the 100 left off as one of the most damp, powerful, and stable skis out there, but I sure like the new ski's agility and playfulness without really any drop in carving performance.

[@Didjable]

Really interesting... I've owned most of the old Enforcer line and the 110 (186) was one of my favorite skis of all time as a 1 ski quiver in Colorado. I always grabbed it over the old E 100. The only place I really wanted something different was long periods of no snow. This season my 110s were skied out, no camber left, and I was going for a quiver, so got on the Rossi BO 118 and it is just spectacular in soft snow. I thought I would never break up with the 110s, but wow, the BO 118 is all smiles. The old Enforcer 94 has become my 'everything else' ski, I really like the strong tail and how smooth yet tenacious it is in hard snow, so I'm not necessarily exited about more tail rocker in the 94. However I spent many days on the old E 104 free in a 186 and 177 and never got along with it. It felt like too much rocker for how directional it wanted to be and so I'm really excited about the new 104 as a possible middle ski in my quiver. (That or the Mantra 102.) How would you compare the new E 104 to the Mantra 102?

[@SkiEssentials]

I still think the Mantra 102 is one of the most sturdy and powerful skis out there. The 104 is in the same conversation, but it's not quite as chargy as the Volkl. That said, if I had to ski one of them all the time, I'd take the more playful 104 unless I knew I was spending most/all of my time on groomers.

[@tonym-w1s]

Just got a pair of 99's and love them, much quicker than the 100 which I thought was a dead ski. Very good in moguls, much easier to release the tails now. While it does rip big GS turns, I almost think I could ski a slalom course on these. Didn't get on pure ice but some very hard, firm frozen terrain and they hold pretty much as well as my Brahma's without being locked into the turn. Lots of discussion on size, I don't think these ski long. Im 6'1 200lbs and got the 185. I haven't tried the 179 so I cant say much but not once did I feel I should be on a shorter length. I guess it depends where you ski but here at Lake Louise and Sunshine this is the perfect length for me.

[@davidagranovich6252]

Great overview as always, thank you! Would love to hear your thoughts on Enforcer 89 vs Anomaly 88 in terms of feel and overall performance. Both Nordica and Blizzard seems to be following extremely similar evolution path.

[@svig137]

I would like to hear Jeff and Bob's Opinion between both of them and how they compare.

[@SkiEssentials]

We'll be able to get deeper into this later this season, but for now, I (bob) have found that the Anomaly is considerably more leaning to the all-mountain and versatile side of the spectrum than the Enforcer 89, which still feels like a true tip to tail carver. The rocker addition in the Anomaly is more pronounced, and this is a very good thing for those that like to ski bumps, trees, and softer snow. I have also found that the Anomaly is very fun and interesting on groomers and firm snow, but it's not quite as grippy or carvy as the Enforcer 89. Anomaly certainly carves, don't get me wrong, but it seems more of a highlight of the Enforcer's character for 2025. All of this being said, I really enjoyed my time on the Anomaly and it fits my style of skiing slightly better than the Nordica. I get more confused when it comes to the 94's!

[@MrMrSvahn]

​@@SkiEssentials a comparsion between Kendo 88, Anomaly 88 and new Enforcer 89 would be money 😎

[@jhelwig19781]

Great video guys, I really enjoy your videos. You are the reason why I bought a 2023, enforcer 94 at 172. And it handles both Wachusett and stow with equal aplomb. Of course now I’m going to need some 104s for my trips out West lol.

[@SkiEssentials]

Yup that's the idea!

[@DaggerDog7]

Thanks for your info, you guys are great! Please continue to give your opinions for bigger older guys who are interested in knowing which skis could be skied possibly shorter.

[@SkiEssentials]

Will do! Generally, I've found that the sturdier the ski, the shorter you can go and the more fun you'll have. I've really enjoyed my time on the 179 in the Enforcer 94 and 99 at 6/2 225. I'm 46, is that "older"?

[@andrewdiamond2697]

23:10 That went a different direction than I was thinking. I was thinking offense (Carving), defense (Cutting through crud), and special teams (Park, Trees, Moguls).

[@SkiEssentials]

This is a new direction in ski reviews that I am enjoying so far. I must say that I'm not a big fan of defense when talking skis--unless you're talking about a ball-hawking cornerback or a blitzing OLB--in that case, I can see the defensive analogy. But a prevent defense, I don't think that has a good ski equivalent.

[@Glowtrey]

Having an enforcer 94 I can attest for all the good (glued to snow, plow tru anything its incredible) and the bad (cant be skied at low speed and low edge angle) wich means its not fun for a day I'd like to ski 70% moguls... those days I kinda prefer some racing skis (like if there it hasnt snowed in a few days I find more versatility in racing skis)... wich kinda kill the purpose of having an all mountain ski in my quiver. So I'm looking forward to try those new ones. Yet I might still go for something else like I really enjoyed the Declivity or the Sender (wish I tried those before I bought my Enforcer).

[@davidwaters507]

Thanks - awesome as usual guys. I was literally (been sitting in my basket) considering buying a pair of Enforcer 104 Free's but I will now wait until next season as I do ski directionally - have been mostly on a Cochise for the last 10(?) years and need to move on as I get older (52) and charge slightly less!

[@ryanbradac6915]

That’s a bummer to me that they flattened the tail out especially on the 104. The amount of swivelness plus the power you got with those older models was insane. Hopefully it will be a similar feel with releasing each turn. Great vid thanks

[@johnkieran7936]

Isn’t that what the enforcer free is?

[@SkiEssentials]

I don't think 104 skiers are going to be disappointed. It's going to be about as swively, mainly because the whole thing is a bit flatter rather than more bowed out. They still turn spectacularly.

[@brookscurran]

They feel just about the same releasing from turns on the tail. They’re even smoother and more powerful feeling too. Can’t imagine any real negative unless you’re trying to ski them switch in pow

[@ryanbradac6915]

@@brookscurran alr awesome that’s good to know. thanks

[@CC-ys8qq]

Had the pleasure of skiing on the 89.....easy to initiate, phenomenal edge grip, strong tail relieved with the rocker makes it feel easy to manipulate, I really really like this ski, torsionally stiff, holds on boilerplate ice and bumps on Outer Limits like a dream. Very confidence inspiring strong ski, versatile, great all mtn ski, can ski this in one size down and it will handle speed. I love this ski. The women's Santa Ana would be a good choice for moguls because it's softer.

[@SkiEssentials]

Great feedback, thanks for sharing!

[@chazbickel4518]

Living in the PNW the Enforcer 104Free is my daily resort ski. Looking forward to trying the new one.

[@chrisrhodes3757]

Hey! I ski a 2023 Enforcer 94 in 191 and love it. But I'm also 6'4" and 280lbs and like to make aggressive turns, so maybe I qualify under the very large carve-out

[@nicktaylor7680]

Thanks for the comprehensive review. I really like the shape of the current 104s and thought the twin tip was a get out jail free card when the crud got really manky so I'm not sure it's an upgrade for me -kind of reminds of the Bonafide a wide ,flat ski bit of a contradiction. I guess there is always the unlimited.

[@brookscurran]

The difference in tail shape is very minor unless you’re trying to ski backwards a bunch. The 104 is the most similar feeling to the older one on snow for me.

[@SkiEssentials]

@brookscurran is correct here. There's still a very big difference between the 2025 104 and the Bonafide/Cochise shaping.

[@buccimane]

I've loved the 104 Free as my west coast all-mountain and east-cost powder ski. Bummed to see if get more directional, it's so good in the trees!

[@SkiEssentials]

It'll still be good in the trees, but with massive improvements on groomers, crud, and chop.

[@proverbalizer]

So buy the 2024. You should be stoked that you can get your preference at a discount

[@VIMCALL]

Hey guys... fantastic summary ( as always)... how does this "new" 94 compare with the Serpo?... thx!!

[@SkiEssentials]

I like this comparison! Serpo has more pop still, a slightly quicker edge to edge character that makes it feel like one of the more lively mid-90's skis out there. It doesn't have the same tip to tail consistency as the Enforcer, and now with the added tail rocker and the more forward mount point, the Enforcer 94 is more playful now, and a bit more versatile when it comes to trees and powder than the Serpo.

[@MichaelEvans-r8c]

Great overview of the updated Enforcer range. I currently run the 186 Enforcer 100 and was planning to replace it with the 104 Free, to get some relief and an upgrade in manoeuvrability and soft snow performance. Given the changes it looks to be still a good choice, but any comments on comparing the new 104 with the new Rustler 10 in terms of soft snow performance and playfulness?

[@RaphDGorbT]

My daily is the old 104 free. Its a swiss army knife! More agressive and hard charging than the rustler.

[@SkiEssentials]

In terms of soft snow, the Rustler is a bit easier to manage and maneuver, but that's really the only benefit. The new Enforcer feels very much the same when it comes to faster and more aggressive skiing. On groomers and in carved turns, the Nordica is exceptional.

[@MichaelEvans-r8c]

Thanks.@@SkiEssentials

[@Allu16]

Skiing the M-Pro 85 at 176cm at the moment and really enjoying it on piste. However I think I'll be looking to add a wider, slightly more freeride shaped ski to my quiver. Something that's nonetheless way under 100m, as it should still lend itself well for on piste. I'm intrigued by the Enforcer 94 is it sounds like it can be driven quite hard. I'm 6'1 and 190 lbs, mainly skiing long runs in the Alps and have been doing so for over 20 years but only very recently been "getting into gear."

[@SkiEssentials]

Great choice! You get the metal laminates but a very turny shape. Easy to use but with a high performance ceiling.

[@wjheutink2854]

Looking at adding a pair of 89’s to my quiver but can’t decide on length. I’m 6’3 and 220 lbs currently skiing Dobermann GSR RB FDT 2019 model in 180 length as my dedicated frontside groomer ski and Enforcer 104 Free in 191 as my offpiste / all mountain ski. The 89 would be my spring / slush / soft spring crud ski with main focus on frontside. I’m leaning towards the 179 to get a bit more playfullness out of the ski. However my main concern is edge grip/hold. With both other pairs I have the length I’m skiing is spot on. I’m a fairly strong/ aggressive skier. Tried some Bent Chetler 100’s in 188 a couple of years back and pushed right trough them. Even in softer snow I had to tune back my aggressiveness a lot to prevent the ski’s from chattering. Will the 179 hold up even in firmer/ icier early morning spring conditions or do I need the 185’s to get that extra bit of hold?

[@SkiEssentials]

I'm 6/2 225 and i would go with the 185 in this ski. I think the Enforcer 94 and above, I like the 179, but the smaller surface area works pretty well in the longer length, especially if you're pretty strong and aggressive. this way, you won't wonder if you left performance on the table.

[@JB-wu1wd]

What about Unlimited enforcers for next year? Looking for a fun mid 90mm hybrid ski for touring that can carve groomers well 😮 cheers

[@SkiEssentials]

They are discontinuing Unlimited here in North America. You can still get them in Europe, as far as we know.

[@davedawkins4561]

Thx for the review! How about a comparison of the Enforcer 94 with the Ripstick 96? Carving Rockies @ 5'8" 160#. Cheers!

[@SkiEssentials]

The new Enforcer 94 has such an easier turn style than it used to, but no loss of performance--this is the big draw for me. While I love the Ripstick and its totally engaging character, the Enforcer has a higher octane and speed limit for sure.

[@WorldBeater123]

I demoed the 2024 Enforcers, but I still prefer my K2 Mindbenders 90TI. I’m looking for new skis, was thinking of trying the Stockli Montero AR

[@SkiEssentials]

Be careful, those skis are smooth as silk and extremely powerful! It's one of those things that just almost doesn't make sense how capable they are. Have fun, I love my AR's!

[@pinkusupaidaa1]

Great summary. Im wondering if the Enforcer 94 in 185 cm will be to short for me. I'm 6'6 235 lbs. I ski 60% on groomers and the rest of the time in powder and trees. Should i be looking for something else?

[@SkiEssentials]

I don't think it'll be too short unless you know you prefer longer skis.

[@danbraden4401]

So just got done skiing my new 88TI out here in Colorado very nice. But man still does not hook up like my 4 year old Enforcers. Just want your comment on both skiing mostly the front side....Thanks

[@SkiEssentials]

I find the new Enforcers, from 89 to 99, to be so incredibly capable on the groomers. The 104, even, is a strong carver, but it's on the heftier side so not as quick or agile. The 89 is very quick and powerful--it's a rare combination in a ski, especially for one that's a narrower freeride ski.

[@danbraden4401]

@@SkiEssentials Awesome Thanks for thoughts!!!

[@lassivaatamoinen5468]

In the E 89, does the added 1m in turn radius make a noticeable difference. I love the current E88 179cm with 16.5m radius, so just wondering about the new having 17.5m...

[@SkiEssentials]

There's a balance here. The new 89 also gets the mount point moved forward 1cm which makes it feel turnier, so it kind of evens out. I can't tell a difference, other than the new one is easier to start the turn and smoother and rounder throughout.

[@antonymccoy9742]

Anomaly 102 vs Enforcer 99, which is more suited for crud charging in open bowls (Colorado)? And which is 'looser, quicker' for tighter bumps, techy steeps and trees? I currently ski the 184cm Mantra M6 and love its precision, ease and predictability in every application, the only tiny negative is I wouldn't describe it as 'fun'.

[@SkiEssentials]

The Anomaly feels looser and more slashy than the Enforcer 99. I'd rather ski that one in the open bowls and off-piste realm. That said, it's not near the carver that the Enforcer is these days.

[@alupsaiu]

Hi! I was wondering how the Enforcer 99 compares with the Mindbender 99ti off trail. I really liked the Mindbender in a 184 for its stability in variable conditions, but I found it pretty maneuverable given its tail rocker. If the Enforcer 99 has similar tail release and maneuverability, but can carve even better, then that sounds pretty ideal to me.

[@SkiEssentials]

I think the new Enforcer has both the mobility and the carving power to make it a very formidable opponent to the Mindbender. I skied the K2 the other day and was reminded of its smoothness and power, but the new Enforcer 99 has a special place in my heart as an insanely maneuverable ski for how well it carves.

[@Jp6M]

I ski the unleashed 98 as a one ski quiver in Vermont. I love the ski. If I was looking for a more hard snow oriented ski, would these new enforcers (94 or 99) provide that without feeling drastically different overall? I still want a smooth, playful and energetic feel that I can take anywhere but with more edge grip when carving groomers. Love the vids! Thank you!

[@SkiEssentials]

The funny answer is that both widths will accomplish that goal. It's also funny because when I'm on the 94, that's the one I like the most, and when I'm on the 99, I like that one better. For how well the 99 carves, and with the additional tail rocker, I think that's your ultimate answer for being a more directional version of the Unleashed 98, but it's a darn fun conversation.

[@Msirizzotti]

would it be crazy to size up to a 179 for a smaller sized advanced/expert level skier? Normally I would stay around 170. It would mainly be used as an open bowl/groomer ski (whistler) with some trees and tighter stuff as well.

[@Msirizzotti]

i should have specified for the enforcer 104*

[@SkiEssentials]

I don't think these need to be sized up on to access performance.

[@HuckBerry208]

Trying to decide on the new enforcer 89’s or some Mindbender 89’s. What would you prefer for someone bobs size for 70/30 on piste off piste?

[@SkiEssentials]

If you are looking for power and stability, the Enforcer is the way to go, regardless of size. I do think the K2 has better pep and zest to it, so it kind of depends what type of performance you're looking for. Additionally, the K2 is more amenable to off-piste skiing, so if that's going to be 30% of your time, and you don't want something terribly demanding, the K2 is a better choice.

[@steveliberman3000]

I've got carvers and eastern all-mountain covered. But, my western all-mountains are about 10 years old - Enforcer 100's. I LOVE them! Even so, would I love the upcoming 99's noticeably more? I know from you guys that the swing weight is less and the metal shape has been refined. Will I really notice a difference enough to buy new ones? Also, my 100's do float in powder (that's why I got them), but would 104's be better for me? I mean, I go out west a couple weeks a season; how often do I really get pow deep enough to float in?

[@SkiEssentials]

The difference between the 100 and the 99 is pretty stark. I think the 99 is a much cleaner turner and carver with more energy and pop than the 100. It's not quite as tank-like through the crud and chop, but it's still pretty darn good. BUT! A move to the 104 almost sounds warranted for you as you're looking for a soft snow focused ski. From our recent experience on the new 104, we're most impressed with its turning capabilities, but by adding a flatter profile, this ski is going to slice through the snow and it's going to be driftier and surfier as a result.

[@skidowntown]

I purchased the Enforcer 100 after one run. I was just about to pull the trigger on the Bonafides and thought the Enforcer was just about as responsive a charger but with a more playful and soft snow bias. This was 2016. I couldn’t believe how versatile it was…great carver…responsive in the bumps, and floatation…even in my deep 2’+ powder runs at Snowbird….it was at the time the closest to a “one quiver” ski that I could recall. I ended up buying the same ski w/different graphics in ‘20…because if it ain’t broken don’t replace it. I haven’t yet tried the newer version that replaced it…and now this new 99 underfoot. I need to test them. I had tried the 104…(the first one) and didn’t like it’s responsiveness as much as the 100….but perhaps the newer 104 is the one. I need to test them!

[@markfriedman8892]

Hey guys, the '25 E94 might perfect but worried about the weight. I'm 5'8 197, I would ski them everywhere out west. On a FX 96ti in 172 and feel the tail won't release in the crud/chop how I would like but it rips. Do I drop down to the 167? Demoed the Serpo in 174 & Stormrider 95 in 170 and liked both for reference. Thx guys as always.

[@SkiEssentials]

I think you'll like the carving and turning performance of that size. I have slight worries that the crud and chop performance will be decreased. I'd say this new 94 skis a lot like the Stormrider just a bit shorter, so I think you will be pretty happy on that 167.

[@CaptV23]

Based upon your videos and answers to my questions (thank you), I demoed the Ruster 10 and enforcer free 104 from the Basin at killington Wednesday. at 5'9 260 I enjoyed the both skis but found enforcer free to be more powerful but I enjoyed the quicker edge to edge of the rustler 10. How does the new enforcer 104 compare to the old one? Also, how would the newly designed 99 compare to these as well? Thanks

[@SkiEssentials]

The new 104 is just as powerful, but is more eager to turn. The same can be said about the 99. Smooth, clean, and round turns are so much easier to access now than they used to be. You will have a similar experience on the 99 vs. the Rustler with more power and a slightly quicker feel vs. the 104.

[@Ceemysix]

Former ski instructor, steep and bump skier from Sugarloaf that is recentering g the sport from a long hiatus. Very long. Last set of boards were a set of 200cm Volkl P9SL skinnies. I’m only 5’3” 160lbs, but have powerful legs and a technically very good skier. Would I be correct in assuming the Enforcer 88/89 in a 170ish length be suitable for me? I have this instinct to go long because that is where I used to be on skinnies, but I understand it’s a new ball game with shapers.

[@SkiEssentials]

This is still a bit on the long side based on your stats, but length has a lot to do with preference. Modern shapes and sizes are meant to capture the carving essence of these skis, not necessarily the fall-line stability.

[@klavierl6744]

It's the skier who made those skis work. You both can make any skis a pair of good skis.

There's a lot of truth to this, not just for us in skiing, but also for a lot of athletes/hobbyists in their chosen professions.

[@brainwalsh]

Haven't owned a new ski in almost 10 years, and looking for a new daily driver. Early 30s, 5'11", 210 lbs, pretty athletic, live in (and grew up skiing around) Colorado and just got back into skiing last season. Upper intermediate (/advanced?) that wants a ski to primarily handle on-piste with a bias towards something I can carve on steep groomers. Would the Enforcer 89 in a 179 length fit the bill? Torn between the 89 and the 94, and not sure if the 179 would be a bit too long. Thanks!

[@SkiEssentials]

I've had a lot of success and happiness on the new 94. The 89 is great, but the 94 seems like a pretty special ski to me. There's a bit more tail rocker and the extra width that makes it slightly more versatile--it just feels like the 94 can do it all. Even if you're looking for an on-piste bias, I think the 94 will answer that call. 179 might be on the long side.

[@SabayonCompiz]

Hey skiessentials, I currently ski a 186 104 free, and while I love them when I’m in conditions where I can carve a turn, I find them pretty unwieldy in anything else because of the weight/length (especially at slower speeds). I thought that a 179 in that ski would be better fit, but I feel conflicted on the 2025 changes - while the tapering of the metal seems like a welcome change to swing weight, I’m worried that the reduced rocker profile would make the 179 “ski longer” than the old shape. Do you think the 2025 104 in a 179 would be a better fit for me, or would you recommend an entirely different ski? For context I’m a 5’8” 170lb ex racer skiing in the PNW. Thanks!

[@SkiEssentials]

It sounds like you're fighting a ghost with these Enforcer skis--I may advise to look elsewhere, ultimately. The new ski, in my experience, is just a better overall product. The flatter shape works better in that it allows for easier pivoting, and the more central mount point helps make this new 104 carve more readily. That said, if you're still struggling and up in the air, looking for an early 100's high performance ski, that mixes carve and float, I'd check out the Armada Declivity 102, Black Crows Justis, or Rossignol Sender 104. I also think the 179 will be a better fit for your stats and application.

[@stevenmccraw-p8f]

How would you compare E99 to Anomoly 102? I have 183 Brahma 88 I use for hard snow and 191 Enforcer 110 for almost everything else but looking for a all around in between. Had Enforcer 100 and thought they were boring. Just sold my Bonafides, I prefer the Brahma, way more versatile than they are given credit for. I also have 186 enforcer 94 that are good but not as good as Brahmas on hard and not really exciting that I am selling. I prefer a chargey ski more than floaty. I ski in Canadian Rockies 40-50 days a year, 6'1 200 pounds.

[@SkiEssentials]

The Enforcer is a crisper carver and prefers clean and round turns. The Anomaly is more of a fall line ski and better suited for higher speeds through crud and chop. The new Enforcers feel more exciting and zesty than the old ones.

[@jamesenter2095]

So I mainly ski Vermont with a trip out west every year. I am looking to upgrade from an older enforcer and it seems like the 99s are the ones to get. Before 94 was the “sweet spot” but most reviews talk up the 99s. Is the 94 or the 99 the best to get?

[@SkiEssentials]

The new 99 has moved the needle. It's easier to turn and more playful but hasn't lost much off the top, if any. It makes this discussion more difficult. Personally, as a full-time Stowe skier, I think the 94 would be my final choice, but i'm a one ski kind of guy and I tend to think that the mid-90's is the place to be. If you chose the 99, I would not say you're wrong.

Thanks - another amazing video! Currently ski'n the 104 Free (179) out West in CO (Intermediate-Advanced) and loving my first year on them. Ironically, where I am having some trouble is at slower speeds when I'm hanging back with the family, so love the idea of better response at lower speeds when needed with the new models. I'm mainly skiing groomers and don't venture off piste too often. Being a taller guy (6'4" - 200 lbs), would you upgrade to the newer 104s or try the 94s given I'm mainly on western groomers? Also - stick w/ the 179 length or venture up?

Hey just a quick question. Would the armada reliance 102Ti make a good ski for a racer that moved to Colorado looking to learn to ski powder but mostly likes fast groomer runs? They seem like a great match in reviews I’m read but just curious on your thoughts. Thanks!

[@SkiEssentials]

Sure! There's some good width and taper here in the 102, and the metal in the build offers dampness and power. You can get a good mix of soft snow performance and hard snow carving in this ski for sure.

[@skibear3469]

I’m curious about the measured weight difference, for my case between the 100 and the 99 in a 179cm

[@SkiEssentials]

It's a negligible weight difference. About 20 grams difference on average between all models in the same lengths. I will say that the new ones feel lighter due to the changed tail and camber profile!

[@liuyongchuan9818]

Bob and Jeff, nice video as always! One question, I think about new 104 vs qst 106 vs new paragon 107. Which one is better for use case for Alta and PNW? How about the carving and technical terrains between those two? Thank you!

[@SkiEssentials]

I think the QST 106 is more useful overall, but it's an interesting discussion. I find the Paragon and the Enforcer to be quite a bit sturdier and, with the 104's more directional shape, more linear and fall-line oriented. The QST is the best floater while the other two are significantly stronger carvers. For trees, tighter spaces, and more technical zones, the more mobile QST makes good sense.

[@liuyongchuan9818]

Great! Thank you!

[@Sixpounder]

Really disappointed that there's no 191 cm version this year of the Enforcer 94, was looking to getting my first own all-mountain skis after a long pondering, and really need (or prefer) a longer pair as I am 206 cm (6'9") myself. Mostly skiing on-piste with variable conditions in Europe during late winter/early springtime, and prefer a wider pair of skis, but not all the way to the freeride-type skis. Sadly have to start inspecting other options again.

[@SkiEssentials]

Yeah, you're certainly big enough to warrant the 191, but not a lot of others are, so it's more of a financial decision for Nordica for that length. I'd say the 99 in the 191 is worth a look!

[@shapul]

So I am getting a little bit lost here. I am an advanced skier on the groomers but a beginner at freeride. I was planning to get a 104 Unlimited as a complement to my carving ski. But now, I'm not sure the new enforcer would be right for me. The much higher weight and longer turn radius makes the new 104 completely different from the old 104 Unlimited. Should I look elsewhere?

[@SkiEssentials]

The Unlimited is not changing, just the 104 Free gets the upgrades. The Unlimited remains a great light weight option with a fantastic shape--it's one of my favorite skis in this realm.

Hey guys ! Great insight as always! I’m an advanced skier from Quebec , 5’6 170 pounds 45 years old, skiing on a Rossi react 10.

[@SkiEssentials]

Thanks! You've got three great options here in the mid-90's zone. The Sender is the lighter and more versatile option on your list--it's the easiest to turn and the happiest at mid-range speeds and turn styles. The other two is where you see more power and stability factor in. The Maverick does it with a lighter weight, but it just does not have the same stability as the slightly heavier Enforcer 94. The new Enforcer 94 is one of the most impressive skis I've been on for all-mountain/on-piste skiing and it absolutely crushes spring snow. Personally, I've had the most success on the Enforcer in this group, especially over the Maverick (since they share more similar applications and intentions). The Sender, again, is the outlier here as it is easier to turn and more manageable in softer snow if you're not that aggressive.

Most skiers will find success in the same length as before. That said, we've been having a lot of fun on shorter Enforcers--if you ever felt caught in the middle, I'd at least recommend trying the shorter size if possible. I'm 6/2 225 and the 179 in the 99 and 94 have worked really well for me so far.

Thanks for all the great content! What would you recommend between this new 104, an atris or the current 104 free? I’ve been skiing the 2nd edition enforcer 100 but find it takes a bit too much work when we’re out the entire family and not going very fast with the kids. My only other pair is the 1st edition disruption mti, which also isn’t the best with the kids when having to chase them among the trees. I was hoping to replace my current enforcers with another pair keeping my “quiver” to just two skiis.

[@SkiEssentials]

Atris makes good sense here as it's a more playful version of the Enforcer 104's (either version). It is smooth and drifty for sure, and it makes a lot of sense when you encounter variable snow conditions and terrain. The Enforcers are still on the heavy side, but I do love that new 104!

[@robert042449]

How does the new 2025 E104 compare to the Line Blade Optic 104? I’m an older skier looking for versatility, slower speed responsiveness and stability in variable snow. I’m also interested in how the Enforcer 99 and Santa Ana 102 compare to the Mindbender 99ti. Thanks!

[@SkiEssentials]

The Enforcer is a better turner on trail. I think the Optic may be more useful in tighter and more technical zones with the slower speed responsiveness, but the new 104 is an amazing carver and it absolutely still plows through crud and chop with the best of them. The Santa Ana follows suit with the 104 as it has the same shape but with less metal, making it a bit more amenable to ease of use and a lighter weight feel. The 99 shares the build with the 104, but has more tail rocker than the K2. This helps with slower speed compliance but still rips. The K2 still wants to go straighter and faster than any new Enforcer/Santa Ana.

[@robert042449]

Thanks. How would these skis compare in terms of performance in powder?

[@SkiEssentials]

The Line is a slightly better floater because the tips and tails are lighter, more rockered, and thinner, making them more playful and maneuverable in deeper snow. @@robert042449

[@peterdemaria2456]

Jeff - I own 6 pair of skis and the E104Free in 186 is my favorite so everything ski (6’1” 185 cm height 200 lb). What I enjoy most is the all mountain versatility plus weight plus loose tail. In contrast, I never liked the traditional Enforcer series having owned (and sold) and E88 and demod the E100. My question to you is what ski is now closest to the soon to be retired E104Free? Debating if I should buy another pair and put in storage. Thoughts?

[@brookscurran]

All of the skis are a lot more like the 104free than ever. I've found that the new 99 can be driven and then released from the tail in a pretty similar manner to the 104free. That said if you like the 104 width it's still available, and the new one feels quite similar in soft snow and even smoother and more powerful than the free version as the snow gets firmer.

[@SkiEssentials]

I'll echo Brooks, here. The new 104 is still very close to the 2024 104 Free. We loved it in firm snow, but there's no real loss of soft snow performance. The new shape is less bowed-out and flatter overall. You could argue that this makes the new one more playful as there's less shape to contend with.

[@peterdemaria2456]

@SkiEssentials It is interesting because I so love the E104Free but so dislike the E100. Ultimately I just bought another pair of E104Frees to keep in storage.

Thank you for the video. I'm watching your videos foo days now to select my all mountain skis. Was looking for the 94 2024 but now hesitating with 2025 94 or 99. I have a pair of 2020 Atris for powder days (189,7 waist 109) I'm 185 cm tall and 85kg (sorry French guy ;-)) What would be your recommendation for a all day ski that will be used on a daily basis for the next 6 years off piste but one or two weeks a year so no guarantee to get powder conditions even off piste ;-). I'd like to get your thoughts about enforcer 2024 vs 2025 in which waist and hight size for my profile and usage thanks and continue to share your passion that is very useful

[@SkiEssentials]

I think if you have the Atris, then the 94 makes a bit more sense. The 2025 versions are a lot easier to turn and just feel like more complete skis with greater versatility. I'd go with the 94 but I like them a bit short. The 179 worked great for me at 187cm tall, but I also think the 185 is fine if you know you prefer longer skis.

[@robertvilter9196]

I’m NE skier - choosing between the 94 and the 99 will be hard. For the moment I’m seeking guidance on length. I’m a strong intermediate, 6’, 175 lbs. I ski a Rustler 9 in a 180 and love it. Would you recommend a 94/99 Enforcer in a 173 or 179 length? Many Thanks!

[@SkiEssentials]

I'd go 179 in either ski. For an NE skier, I'm struggling with this as well. The good news is that you can't go wrong. I think the addition of the tail rocker to the 99 is a very good one, and I've loved every turn I've made on that ski so far this season. The 94 seems like a better choice on paper, but I can't deny how well that 99 has performed in both firm and soft conditions and all sorts of terrain.

do you guys think the enforcer 94 or 99 would be a good all mountain ski for the east coast?

[@SkiEssentials]

We'll probably get into all sorts of fights over the next year about this question. I think the simple and on-paper answer is the 94, and you will not be disappointed. That said, it's difficult to argue against my personal experience on the 99 here at Stowe and just how darn well it carves a clean turn on firm snow. Since it can carve amazingly well and have a more playful shape for softer snow, it's tough to argue against the 99. Today, if you made me pick, I think I'd take the 99 but in all honesty, I'd be so incredibly happy with either one.

[@Mr_Dusty]

Are the 94’s a better carver than the 99’s? I know on paper the 94’s are supposed to be due to their narrower width but wanted to know your real world thoughts?

[@SkiEssentials]

This is a great question and one that I go back and forth on a whole lot. I think a lot of it depends on your carving style and preference. I've come to really enjoy a sturdier ski around 100 mm for on-trail carving as it allows me to access a higher edge angle and fully flex the ski. The movement of the camber and mount point forward in the 99 makes a pretty substantial difference in the carving capabilities, and I'm a huge fan. As much as I'd like to say that in a vacuum, the 94 is a better carver, my real world experience has thus far sided with the 99 as being more satisfying for me.

[@Mr_Dusty]

@@SkiEssentials Thank you so much for the reply! Much appreciated.

[@superdeifi]

How are they compared to the new blizzard anomaly especially in carving mode?

[@SkiEssentials]

The 94's seem like a good place to make the most direct comparison, so I'll start there. It's a different carving feel. The Anomaly feels like it has a higher speed limit and yearns for that speed in order to create a dynamic carved turn. The Enforcer, amazingly, has better mid-range compliance and makes amazingly round turns at a variety of speeds. That said, it didn't feel quite as comfortable at the top end of the speedometer while the Anomaly was slightly more composed. Off-trail, and in bumps and trees, I'm really impressed with them both. The shovel of the Anomaly seems more interested in floating and flexing while the Enforcer feels more precise and amenable to starting a turn quicker--I think the more forward mount of the Enforcer has an effect here.

[@Supertourist5556]

Hello great review! How does the Enforcer 94 compare to the Rustler 9? Thx!

[@SkiEssentials]

In a carved turn, the Enforcer 94 offers a lot more confidence. I think the Rustler has an edge when it comes to mobility, agility, and maneuverability, especially in tighter spaces, but the Enforcer is a more stable and solid ski for sure.

[@Supertourist5556]

Thx!

[@tonym-w1s]

Im wondering why you are recommending the 179 over 185 in the E99 to bigger guys.

Comfort and confidence. The skis are inherently stable due to the build, so by downsizing a bit, you are gaining a carving and mobility advantage. We are not, however, blanketly trying to talk people out of longer skis. You like what you like!

Take this for what it's worth - When you are introducing a new line of updated skis like this with four new skis and their predecessors are all on the wall, it can get very confusing about which waist-width ski you're talking about. Think about your audience. They're feeding their kids dinner and trying to follow along. If you preface more of your commentary and constantly remind them specifically which ski you are talking about on an ongoing basis, then it will be much easier to follow along. One other thing. This might be heresy to the younger generation, but saying that a ski is "awesome" tells your potential customer nothing about the product

Thanks for the tips!

Nordica should have changed the graphic design of this new collection.

[@steveliberman3000]

Not disagreeing, but I really have liked the mountain graphics.

I'll defend the graphics in that they're not bad--certainly not eye-catching, but I don't think they're ugly by any stretch.
