I bought the nordica enforcer 100 a couple years ago thanks to your videos… as you mentioned, the enforcer is a ski that requires a lot more strength to maneuver but is incredibly stable. Now I’m getting the atomic bent 100s (again thanks to your reviews) for the days when I need a break and want a more playful ski that’s easier to throw around. Thank you for your reviews!
Great review. I do own both and I live in SLC. I feel I almost need to come ski Stowe so I have a better idea of the snow and steepness of the terrain you are testing on. I love both skis but I come up with different takes skiing out here in the cottonwoods and Deer Valley. Great work and keep it up.
Awesome review guys! I haven't been on the 99 or 104 yet, but the 94 has been my daily driver this season so far and I'm in love 😆I haven't had it in the woods yet, but on piste in variable conditions, it is super predictable. The 18m radius of the 185 seems pretty accurate, but it releases the tail much more willingly than my old 88, so quick smeary turns are not a problem. Seems like that is the case throughout the new line of Enforcers..... I may need to find room for a 104 🤔 What's up with the dude at 18:24? He was doing his best to try and take out Matt.
I've been on my Enforcer 100's with Marker Griffons for, oh, I don't know, 10 years now. I have LOVED them. Is there anything to be gained by getting new 99's or 104's?
Thanks for the review ! Can you make a enforcer vs unleashed comparison ? I find it a bit hard to decide between the two, espacially when you ski the alps ! If you can help me ;)
With you guys doing the reviews with 3 people, would it maybe be an idea to do a stockli montero comparison? One person on the AS, one on the AX and one on the AR? I think that would be very interesting .
Oh boy is this great!⛷❄️ I will say the camera work, video and the skiing has improved so much since the early days of the channel. Question for Bob and Matt ( mentioned a bit) you both use the Declivity as a daily driver how does this compare. If you have both what are you grabbing??
You sure wore dark lenses for how flat the light was.. My 104 Free would have done great in those conditions.. You should mention something about how this is the perfect ski for stuff that you don't even see.. The ski can handle it..
Yes. It's fun to check out soothski.com's comparison of these two skis in their raw form: soothski.com/compare/?_values_&selected_rows=%5B9991%2C11215%5D&tab=%22Compare%22
@ Darn I feel like the 104 free is the perfect stiffness- I can easily bend it into whatever shape I want and the tail makes it easy to release in tight spots, but it still has the benefit of being super damp because of the metal. It’s rare for me to find a speed limit in open terrain on the 191 even though I’m 205 lbs, but I can still navigate through west coast tight terrain very easily by bending it into a tighter radius or pivoting with the easy to release tail rocker. That ski was really unique in the market. I feel like Nordica is going to alienate a lot of their customer base with the new 104. The added stiffness means it’ll take more work to ski in tight spots so I’ll have to find something different when it comes time to replace the 104 frees that I love.
These reviews are so good! The follow-cam shots remain unbeatable. More of this, please!
This way of review works so good, really helps to understand what we can expect.
Might be my favorite style of review you guys have done. Loved it!
This format is gold

What’s your take? Especially curious about the 99. I live up in Park City

That run with the orange ribbon on the tree had to be good for your sore knee. I’ve said it before, filming looks terrifying.

I would also love to see this
Very impressive double ejection!
It was impressive.... nice recovery. Classic Marker bindings for you.
I wish you would include tune settings if you do a review.
Those flylow kits looks sick

How did Matt end up back on his feet on that one?
Would bob still go 179 in the 99? Is Matt gonna trade in the Declivity 102s?
What happened to Matt? Was his din set too low?

Were both skis the same sizes?
The 99 looked better controlled on everyone I thought. Pity Jeff didn't last run that one.
Both 185's
18:08 ouch. I had a crash like that yesterday. Happens to everyone I guess!

Enforcer shape = amazing. Enforcer flex stiff. Enforcer not playful but yet somehow works, heaven and hell LOL.
Is the 104 stiffer than it used to be?
