Developed for advanced skiers who like to take on any run on the mountain, the Nordica Hot Rod Nitrous ski has a 78-mm. waist and aggressive sidecut for exceptional carving performance with plenty of crud-busting potential. It's a toned-down cousin to the award-winning, expert's oriented Hot Rod Jet Fuel, but the narrower waist gives the Hot Rod Nitrous easier turn initiation and a tighter turn radius. That's an ideal combo for skiers who like to rip through the tree line long after the powder hounds have packed down the freshies.
Description
The Hot Rod Nitrous XBS is designed for advanced all-mountain skiers and is ideal for 50% groomed and 50% off trail. Norica Nitrous was one of our best sellers from the 05's season for good reason. Great edge hold when you want to play on the groomers and then a solid backbone to break through any unfamiliar conditions when off piste. With XBS Alu, vertical racing sidewalls, and a wood core make the Nitrous a gas for advanced skiers. For those who want skis with smooth acceleration and a forgiving feel, light up the Nitrous.

According to Skiing Magazine, "This stick comes equipped with the X-Balance system, an intergrated plate that keeps you centered when you're about to lose your shiznizzle. GRIPES: Lack of metal layer = speed limit. PROPS: Rips like the Top Fuel, but bounces more in the crud. TESTER'S TAKE: "Like a Harley Softail, it's got the forgiveness to make all-day cruising easy." -Chad Johnson
