2027 Stockli Nela 93 Skis

Powder days and off-trail freedom are the focus of the Stockli Nela 93, a women's freeride ski built for lift and playful handling in soft snow. A poplar, beech, and paulownia wood core keeps it light, while a powder rocker and freeride tail supply the float and maneuverability that make deep snow feel easy. The result is a confidence-building ski for women who want to charge fresh lines and stay in control in variable off-trail terrain.

Why we like it:

The powder rocker and freeride tail pairing is what gives this ski its personality, delivering real lift up front and a loose, playful release in the tail. We also like how light the three-wood core feels, so the Nela 93 floats and surfs without wearing you out.

Who it's for:

Intermediate to advanced women skiers who want a dedicated freeride ski for powder days and off-trail adventures. A great fit for skiers chasing first lines in fresh snow who still want a forgiving, manageable ride when the terrain gets tracked out.

Highlights:

A poplar, beech, and paulownia wood core gives the Nela 93 a light, lively feel that makes soft snow approachable rather than demanding. The Powder Rocker is the headline, lifting the tip for genuine float in fresh snow, while the Freeride Tail keeps the ski loose and playful when you want to slash and pivot. A Thin Glass Laminate trims weight from the layup, and Softflex construction keeps the overall flex relaxed and easy to bend, so the ski stays forgiving in variable conditions. Titanal Technology Pro adds a measure of stability and composure when the snow firms up or gets choppy, Polywall sidewalls bring durability, and Solid Metal Edge Light edges round out a freeride ski tuned for control and confidence off the trail.

Things to consider:

The Nela 93 is built for soft snow and off-trail terrain, so it is happiest away from firm groomers. Skiers who spend most of their time carving hardpack will want a narrower, more frontside-oriented ski.

Fit & sizing considerations:

The Nela 93 sizes true to length. Pick your usual length; drop a length for quicker, more playful handling or step up for added float and stability on deeper days.
