With a slightly shorter radius and softer flex than full FIS builds, it's tailor-made for developing racers and high-level skiers who want GS precision without GS punishment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy we like it:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ski keeps the Dobermann DNA, providing power, grip, and confidence, but tempers it just enough to make it more accessible without watering it down.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho it's for:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIdeal for junior and masters racers, or experienced skiers who want to carve big, clean turns at speed without the full demand of a FIS-level ski.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHighlights:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith Nordica’s proven Energy 2 Titanium construction at its core, the GS Race is built to deliver elite-level edge grip and dampness, reinforced by a dual-layer Titanal laminate and a full wood core. The ski’s Marker Piston Plate provides responsive energy transfer and stability. Radius profiles start at ≥23m (183\/178) and ≥25m (188), making it a strong fit for U16 and masters athletes racing in non-FIS leagues, or for technical skiers who prioritize smooth, GS-style turns on firm groomers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThings to consider:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile it’s more accessible than the WC version, this is still a high-performance ski that expects to be driven. Skiers looking for a more casual GS experience may prefer something with a shorter radius and more forgiving flex.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFit \u0026amp; sizing considerations:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAvailable in 178, 183, and 188, the GS Race offers race-specific sizing that balances power and agility. For most skiers, the 183 hits the sweet spot between precision and manageability.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nordica","offers":[{"title":"188","offer_id":50212782080296,"sku":"0A121600001|188","price":495.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/5135\/6456\/files\/2022-nordica-dobermann-gs-w-rplate-skis-0a121600001-0a121600001.jpg?v=1770761247","url":"https:\/\/checkout.skiessentials.com\/products\/2022-nordica-dobermann-gs-w-rplate-skis-0a121600001","provider":"Ski Essentials","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
