Nordica SPEEDMACHINE 3 100 (GW) Ski Boots

The Nordica SPEEDMACHINE 3 100 (GW) unisex ski boots are designed for on-piste and all-mountain skiers seeking a balance between performance and comfort on alpine slopes. With a flex rating of 100 and a medium volume of 100 mm, they’re designed for skiers seeking precision without excessive stiffness. Their bi-material PU shell and 3D Performance Fit Primaloft® liner, enhanced with insulating material, provide a secure yet comfortable fit. The Gripwalk® Extra-Grip soles and compatibility with Gripwalk® bindings and similar systems add a practical dimension to travel and ski days.

An all-terrain ski boot focused on balancing performance and comfort

Classified in the alpine ski boot category, the Nordica SPEEDMACHINE 3 100 (GW) is designed as an all-terrain ski boot offering a claimed balance between performance and comfort. The dual-material PU shell and collar, also made of dual-material PU, provide a structure engineered to support the foot while minimizing perceived stiffness. The medium volume (100 mm last) is ideal for skiers seeking firm support without the feeling of being squeezed, making it versatile for both on-piste and off-piste skiing. The 100 flex, combined with this intermediate volume, ensures reliable power transfer for precise turns, without sacrificing the comfort needed for long days on the slopes.

A 3D Primaloft® liner for support and thermal comfort

At the heart of these Nordica SPEEDMACHINE 3 100 (GW) ski boots, the 3D Performance Fit Primaloft® liner plays a key role in how the boot feels on the foot. The 3D construction is designed to more precisely conform to the shape of the foot, reducing friction points and improving support throughout the various phases of the turn. The Primaloft® insulation, combined with an isothermal material (Isotherm Liner Material), is designed to retain heat inside the liner and manage moisture, resulting in drier feet throughout your runs. For skiers, this means increased stability within the boot and thermal comfort designed for long winter days on the lifts and slopes.

Tri-Force Shell and Fit Technologies for Everyday Use on the Mountain

The SPEEDMACHINE 3 100 (GW) features Tri-Force technology, with a 3Force Honeycomb Shell that combines different densities of plastic to balance stiffness with more flexible zones. This “honeycomb shell” structure is designed to optimize the transfer of force to the skis while helping to reduce the boot’s weight, which facilitates movement during repeated weight shifts.Infrared Technology allows certain areas of the shell to be thermoformed, enabling a more precise fit for skiers who experience pressure points. In addition, the Easy Entry Soft Flap system is designed to make putting the foot into the boot smoother—a tangible benefit when putting on or taking off boots in cold conditions. All of these technologies are designed for regular alpine skiing, where everyday comfort is of significant importance.

Precision Lacing System and Gripwalk® Extra-Grip Soles

The Nordica SPEEDMACHINE 3 100 (GW) features four micro-adjustable aluminum buckles, allowing for fine-tuning of the fit along the entire length of the foot and the cuff. The 45-mm strap complements this system to effectively secure the top of the boot, which helps stabilize the leg during aggressive turns. The Gripwalk® Extra-Grip soles are designed to improve traction when walking on typical resort surfaces, while remaining compatible with Gripwalk® bindings and similar systems. This compatibility makes it easy to integrate the boot into a modern gear setup, while the sole design offers added comfort when walking between the slopes, parking lots, and lift areas.
