Manufacturer's Description

The emblematic black crows’ model nocta has been carried over in all but looks for the 2015 season. Developed by Julien Regnier, a pioneer in reverse camber technology, the nocta has made its mark in the freeride world due to its international notoriety. This is best illustrated by the winning of numerous prizes and awards obtained on diverse continents for its skiability. Combining a generous side-cut with a dynamic flex gives it great handling in all circumstances. Designed for powder skiing, it can still hold its edge on hard snow due to an 18 metre turn radius. Both a powder gun and a multipurpose ski, the nocta is a ski of the future.
Thanks to the double beak bi-directional technology, the nocta is extremely manoeuvrable and powerful. This performance is due to a long and progressive front rocker allowing it to be very highly efficient in deep snow, a true classic camber in the centre and a more moderate tail rocker which gives it excellent stability at high speed. Light and well balanced, centre mounted, this master of backcountry freestyle is also the perfect weapon for big jumps and switch drop-ins. 2 sizes: The 188: a perfect powder day size. The characteristics of the double rocker mean that the ski length is increased, a 188 therefore corresponding to traditional ski sizes of between 175 and 180cm. The 178: size preferred by lighter weight riders and ladies, this ski corresponds with traditional ski lengths of between 165 and 170cm.
