The highlight of ICELANTIC's 2025-2026 season is the revamp of their backcountry models, "NATURAL" and "MYSTIC." These models have evolved further based on their highly acclaimed shapes
The new Flyweight core is made primarily of lightweight, flexible Paulownia wood, with a birch mounting plate for increased binding attachment strength. Furthermore, by replacing the traditional fiberglass construction with lightweight, high-strength carbon fiber, the weight has been reduced and response has been significantly improved
Stringers positioned from tip to tail enhance overall rigidity and directional stability. The tip uses an "X'tra Strength" carbon pattern, making it resistant to twisting even with a wide taper
The sidewall width has also been optimized to further reduce weight without sacrificing performance or durability, allowing for comfortable skiing even on long tours with minimal strain on the legs
The freeride series "NOMAD" and "MAIDEN" underwent major updates last season. For the 2025-2026 season, new lengths have been added to the three models "NOMAD 94," "NOMAD 112," and "MAIDEN 94," further enhancing the lineup. While maintaining their high basic performance, the series has evolved to suit a wider range of skiers
New sizes are now available for the NOMAD 94 (166cm and 188cm), the NOMAD 112 (194cm), and the MAIDEN 94 (150cm)
MAIDEN 94｜D=129-94-121mm｜Size：150, 155, 162, 169cm R=14.5m(162cm) ¥138,600
In addition, new sizes have been added to the "SABA" and "NIA" series, which were developed in collaboration with ICELANTIC's professional riders
The "Reflective Rocker" used in both models matches the rocker shape of the entire board with the side curve, allowing the tip and tail to firmly grip the snow surface during turns. Despite being a full rocker design, it provides high grip, stability, and quick response. It has the versatility to handle a variety of terrain, and it delivers the performance to enjoy any style, whether it's backcountry, piste side hitting, or switch riding. Of course, it also has excellent floatation in powder
The SABA PRO 117 now comes in 182cm, while the NIA PRO 105 now comes in 182cm and 187cm sizes, adding to the lineup to fit a wider range of skiers
SABA PRO
SABA PRO 117｜D=147-117-137mm｜Size：177, 182, 187cm R=21.5m(182cm) ¥148,500

Although ICELANTIC's skis are categorized as freeride, all-mountain, and backcountry, there is no ski that specializes in just one thing. All of their skis are "suitable for exploring mountains all over the world." Their concept is "Return to Nature." ICELANTIC is an ever-evolving brand that creates and disseminates its own unique culture in Japan.
