2027 Nordica Enforcer 94

The 2027 Nordica Enforcer 94 gets a new look for this year but returns otherwise unchanged. This is still a beefy ski with excellent edge grip and high-quality performance. The previous version of this ski also had the same mentality—any turn, any time, any condition, and this carries forward into 2027 with a slightly peppier feel. If you’re a fan of carving turns but don’t want to be limited to groomer skiing, this Enforcer 94 is a wonderful option. The versatility and confidence ramp up when you add speed and effort, making this a great option for skiers looking for confidence and control.

With a thick and meaty wood core, the Enforcer 94 is all there. All Enforcer skis use a blend of poplar and beech in their multi-layer wood core. We get two full layers of titanal, but the layups are 2 mm thinner than full width on each side, leading to a more central format. This gives a bit more energy to the sides and slightly lowers swing weight. Underfoot, Nordica uses their pulse core technology that is found in other skis like Dobermann and Steadfast. This elastomer layer keeps it quiet and stable underfoot and provides additional damping and confidence. This increase in performance and energy is a common theme among our testers. Tester Ken Marin notes that “It feels great when you lay it on edge. Very stable and responsive ski. In the stiffer side relative to a number of others in this category. Good on hard pack and softer groomed snow but while there wasn’t great opportunity to try on other terrain, I think these would also be good in bumps and not too tight woods and soft snow.”

It’s a mid-width all-mountain ski but it’s still based on a more playful shape. The Enforcer 94 blurs the line between all-mountain and freeride when it comes to profile and footprint. While the waist width remains the same as before, we do see playfulness in the dimensions and profile. There’s some moderate tail rocker to this ski, making it smooth in the release phase of the turn and adding some interesting versatility in softer snow. Due to the rocker, Nordica moved the mount point forward 1 cm from the previous 94 to find the camber height. This gives the ski cleaner initiation and a strong tail. Overall, this makes the ski feel quick and agile in a variety of turn shapes and styles. Tester Quenten Jones calls it “So stable and confidence inspiring. Makes me feel like a better skier. This ski is all-mountain with a groomer bias. Better options for bumps and trees. But it slays groomers. This is top level power and performance in an all-mountain ski.”

While it is predictable, you do have to work a bit to get to the top end of the performance window. There’s a lot to like here from a carving and power perspective, and then there’s the versatility, which is accessible given your skills. You can ski this in bumps, trees, powder, crud, chop, windblown, etc. The options are limitless, and that’s what makes the Enforcer 94 such a formidable ski in the mid-90's range. It’s not the best for an intermediate—there’s some weight and stiffness to contend with, but for advanced and expert skiers who are looking for a strong, powerful, and well-rounded all-mountain option, it’s tough not to include this one on any list. We got to spend some good time on the Enforcer 94 this past winter and it was a good reminder of just how confident this ski makes you feel.
