Ability Level

Beginner

Expert

Skiers that have moved beyond the basics and feel more comfortable on the slopes making strong parallel turns with solid edge control. These skiers are exploring more of the mountain and ski the majority of the runs at most resorts, but still improving their skills to take on the hardest runs with confidence. The majority of intermediate skiers can adjust and manage their speed while adjusting to a variety of terrain and snow conditions.

Very experienced skiers that can easily tackle all types of terrain. Event at high speed, these skiers are balanced, controlled and confident. They ski efficiently with strong technique not matter what turn shape or at any speed. Expert skiers enjoy the challenge of variable conditions and terrain — from groomers to deep snow and tight trees to wide open faces - while adjusting quickly to unexpected obstacles along the way.

Tip-tail Rocker

At 85mm underfoot, the Zero G 85 is your weapon of choice for long days on the skin track and early morning uphill workouts alike. While remaining narrow and light for crushing vert, Blizzard’s proven Carbon Drive technology provides for a more consistent, stable feel on the descent.

Technologies

TOURING CONSTRUCTION

Blizzard had been playing with new materials and construction concepts for over 75 years. Our touring skis express what this endless engineering process leads to. Combining an update version of our Carbon Drive approach with the craftiest of Trueblend Tour woodcores, and we are able to make touring skis that are not just light-weight -- but the righ-weight. Making light skis is important, but finding the ideal weight to ensure both up and downhill performance is more important. The introduction of our touring specific Trueblend woodcore was the key to finding this sweet spot. This Trueblend Tour woodcore uses a specific blend of woods to deliver perfect flex for touring requirements. Paulownia offers an unbeatable strength-to-weight ratio, while poplar gives high energy performance without sacrificing durability.

CARBON REINFORCEMENT

The Carbon Drive 3.0 is empowered by two underfoot carbon reinforcements.
The carbon reinforcements are two edge-to-edge layers of bi-direction carbon fiber placed in the binding mounting areas, in order to provide:
IMPROVED EDGE GRIP
ENHANCED POWER TRANSMISSION

CARBON DRIVE 3.0

The Carbon Drive 3.0 is the technology upgrade of the Carbon Drive 2.0 technology: a full length 3D shaped unidirectional carbon fiber chassis running through the entire length of the ski, combined with an ultra-light pawlonia woodcore (Zero G 85, 95) or ISO/BEECH/POPPLAR core (Zero G 105): this combination guarantees a super lite construction keeping the necessary structure for performance.
Ensures optimal torsional rigidity and flex, placing the carbon in those area where it is really needed.

CARBON DRIVE 2.0 VS CARBON DRIVE 3.0
The new Carbon Drive has been placed below the fiberglass + carbon layer
Review of the carbon chassis shape to provide less rigidity in tip and tails.
