This is the ski that comes out on top of more "best one ski quiver" lists than you can count. The Blizzard Cochise Skis + Atomic FFG 12 Demo Bindings turned the ski industry upside down by introducing the revolutionary Flipcore 3D concept - rather than take a cambered core and molding it to create rocker, they flipped the core over and went from there. The Cochise is a charger's ski for climates where you're as likely to find sheet ice as you are powder, or for big vertical descents where you are sure to encounter the full spectrum of conditions in one run. Two layers of Titanal in the build and a stiff overall flex mean the Blizzard Cochise Ski is comfortable at any speed you are. Let 'em run.

Product Details

Rocker Type

Tip and Tail Rocker – flat section underfoot lets you turn this ski with a bit less than Herculean effort at slower speeds.

Core

Poplar-Bamboo-Paulownia-ISO-Woodcore

Flipcore 3D Technology – Unlike most other companies, who start with a cambered core and "bend" it in the mold to create a rockered ski, Blizzard starts with a rockered core and components in the first place. The wood core of the ski is inserted upside-down, so that the downward-facing, convex side of the core creates a natural bend. Sound like marketing BS? Sure, except for the fact the the Flipcore skis have received almost universal praise from experts in their short time on the market. Maybe Blizzard is onto something here . . .

Laminates

Spaceframe 3D – 2 Titanal layers with strategic cutouts to lessen swing weight while improving torsional transmission and reducing vibration.

Sidewalls

Phenol Sidewalls

Base

Strong Graphite Base

Included Bindings

Demo Bindings Come Mounted to Skis – Always have a certified binding technician adjust your bindings.

Includes Atomic FFG 12 Demo Bindings – Din Range: 4 - 12

Specs

Terrain: All-Mountain, Big Mountain More

Terrain

All-Mountain All-mountain skis are designed to handle anything you throw at them including powder, ice, groomers, steeps, heavy snow, and everything in between, but they aren’t necessarily a master of any one terrain. If you’re only going to own one ski to do it all, this is what you want. All-mountain skis generally have what we call mid-fat waists that range from 80-110 mm. Big Mountain Big mountain skis are designed for charging big lines with high speeds and big airs. These skis varry in width from wide, powder-oriented skis for skiing Alaska spines to narrower, mixed condition skis for ripping the beat up headwall at your local mountain. Skis in this category tend to be on the stiffer side, often with more rocker in the tip and less in the tail.
Skis: With Bindings
Ability Level: Advanced-Expert More

Ability Level

Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.
Rocker Type: Rocker/Flat/Rocker More

Rocker Type

Rocker/Flat/Rocker Rocker/Flat/Rocker is a variation on the rocker theme that seeks to provide a little more hard snow edgehold and pop than full rocker while retaining ease of turning and float. Performance is between a fully rockered ski and a rocker/camber/rocker ski.
Turning Radius: Long
Core/Laminates: Bamboo, Metal, Wood
Tail Type: Partial Twin Tip More

Tail Type

Partial Twin Tip Partial twin tip skis have a tail that is turned up, but not as much as the tip. This gives you the ability to ski backwards and back out of tight spaces, but these skis are mainly designed to ski forward.
