The Blizzard Black Pearl 82 Skis give the dedicated front side skier the benefit of Blizzard's impeccable hard snow behavior - superior edgehold and "calmness" on ice - without penalizing the user with stubborn resistance to turning. This is one of those skis that look like sloppy intermediate skis on paper, but expert testers get on them and are pleasantly surprised, making them a great bet for athletic intermediates who aspire to do better.
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.
Shape
W.S.D. (Woman Specific Design) Shape Concept – Traditional wide frontside sidecut with effortless radius. Forward mounting position for easy turn initiation.
Core
W.S.D. Carbon Flipcore Technology – The famed Blizzard Flipcore process matches the core contour with the intended rocker profile so core and laminates act in harmony and don't require re-shaping in the mold.
Laminates
Uni-Directional Carbon Frame
Fiberglass
Sidewalls
Sandwich Compound Sidewall – All Blizzard skis with the exception of some junior skis are built with ABS or Phenol sidewalls for superior performance (stability, power transmission, handling) and durability.
Base
Sintered Graphite Base
