The non symetrical sidecut (120-84-109 for 163, 170 and 177 sizes, 116-82-105 for 149 and 156 sizes) is ideal for mountain and park ripping. The construction of the Double Six Skis is geared toward energy transfer, which helps with controlling turns and getting edge grip. This ski differs from the higher cost Dead Money model in that the Dead Money ski is for more advanced skiers, has a higher sidecut (121-86-110) to help with landings, and has laminate woodcore sidewalls that help to make the ski more durable. The Nordica Double Six Skis are designed with a multicolored gambling-motif graphic that suits the ski's name.
