2023 Nordica Dobermann GS w/RPlate Skis

The 2023 Nordica Dobermann GS w/ RPlate takes race-proven pedigree and dials it into a ski built for aspiring racers, masters athletes, and technical frontside carvers. With its high-performance construction and race plate interface, it offers the feel of a World Cup GS ski in a slightly more forgiving, user-friendly package.

Why we like it:

It strikes a smart balance between GS power and everyday manageability. It brings serious speed and edge grip without the brutal stiffness of a full FIS setup.

Who it's for:

Ideal for U16 and masters racers, as well as former athletes and advanced skiers who want to carve clean, long turns at speed without battling the ski.

Highlights:

Powered by Nordica’s Energy 2 Titanium construction, the Dobermann GS delivers unmatched edge hold and dampness thanks to a full wood core and dual Titanal layers. The Marker Piston Plate amplifies leverage and rebound, giving each turn a crisp, race-ready feel. It delivers all the high-speed confidence of a GS ski with a bit more agility and compliance for the real world.

Things to consider:

This is still a demanding ski built for edge engagement and speed, and not an everyday carver for most people. Lighter or less aggressive skiers will want to consider something with a bit more forgiveness, especially for everyday carving.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Skis true to size; choose based on speed preference and technical ability.
