Meet Nordica’s Machine Boot Family: Power. Comfort. All-Mountain Performance in Edmonton’s Conditions
If you've been shopping for ski boots lately, you’ve probably noticed Nordica’s Machine line popping up everywhere — for good reason. Whether you're ripping down the slopes at Marmot Basin, navigating mixed West‐coast snow, or grinding your edges on icy conditions closer to home, this boot family is built to deliver. Here’s what you need to know — and why one of these might just be your next boot choice.
|
Promachine |
Expert / advanced skiers, racers, people who want high responsiveness and precision. Also good if you have a narrower foot and want power without feeling bulky. |
Narrow 98mm last shell, stiff flex options (110 / 120 / 130), race-boot DNA fused with all-day capability. Custom shells and liners, strong spine support for lateral stiffness. |
|
Speedmachine |
All-mountain to aggressive intermediates; skiers who want a mix of power + comfort; those who ski varied terrain (groomed, powder, variable ice). |
Mid-volume options, lots of flex range, some models with BOA fit systems for quicker adjustment, strong tech features in shell and liner. |
|
Sportmachine |
Skiers with high-volume feet; people who value comfort, warmth, long days; casual to intermediate skiers; those needing adjustable cuff or more room in calf. |
Wider lasts (102mm), more forgiving shell, better insulation, some softer flexes, good fit for more feet shapes. Excellent for long days on groomers, park, or mixed conditions. Cuff adjustments for calves. |
There’s been a lot of talk about BOA’s Fit System and its benefits within the ski boot world. Here’s a look at the primary benefits and key features within the Nordica boot collection.
The Nordica Machine family offers one of the most coherent, performance-versatile boot lineups available. You can go ultra performance with the Promachine, stay in the “go-anywhere, happy all day long” zone with Speedmachine, or dial toward comfort and volume with Sportmachine.

For Edmontonians, the key is the fit, what’s great on paper often depends heavily on how well the boot adapts to your unique foot shape, how well it's heated or molded, and whether you feel comfortable from first buckled to last turn. If you’re in the market, drop by Sundance, try several flexes, adjust the fit, and ask a bootfitting pro to work with you.
