Jed Duke of Blizzard introduces the brand’s 2015/2016 lineup, highlighted by Carbon Flipcore technology. This inserts carbon fiber into the entire rockered parts of the tip and tail to stabilize the rockered zone and increase control. The Spur returns unchanged, while the Bodacious gets its metal taken away to make it a little more user-friendly, and many of the freeride skis get tapered tips and tails for easier smeary turns.
Blizzard introduced a new line as well called Carbon Drive, a 3D carbon fiber frame that’s torsionally strong. The 178 size of the 98-waisted ski comes in at 1250 grams, but the line also has 108 and 88-waisted models.
