In the hyper competitive 100 mm class, the Blizzard Bonafide Skis have been at the top of the pile for several years.
The Bonafide got a major revamp for 2016 remains the same for 2017, but hasn't lost any ground to the competition. Do your research, but all-mountain experts who want a single ski to kill it in every condition keep coming back to the Bonafide for a reason. Carbon Flip Core construction and narrower strips of Titanal reduce the swing weight and lighten up the ski overall, but the rock solid Blizzard feel at speed and in a hard-carved turn are still there in spades. If you're ready to pull the trigger on an all-mountain quiver of one, the Blizzard Bonafide Skis will undoubtedly be the best shot you've ever fired.
PRODUCT DETAILS
ROCKER TYPE
Rocker Camber Rocker – Ski profile with rocker at the tip and tail, camber in the middle. Reducing the pressure on the edge at the tip and tail makes the ski even easier to handle and increases flotation on powder snow. The camber guarantees great grip on packed snow.
FLEX
Medium Stiff Flex
SHAPE
Tapered Tip & Tail
CORE
Poplar-Beech WoodcoreCarbon Flip Core Technology – In an evolution of the famed Blizzard Flip Core process, which starts with the core contour matching the intended rocker profile, 90˚ directional carbon fiber is integrated into the core at tip and tail, stabilizing the extremities of the ski while reducing swing weight. Win-win for you.
