Product Info
The Blizzard Power S8 Skis + Power12 TCX Bindings is a precise and powerful setup designed for frontside rippers who spend most of their time on the groomed. Narrow enough for lightning quick edge transfer and quickness in the bumps, the S8 benefits from a layer of Titanal metal that keeps it smooth and composed on harder snow.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Rocker Camber Rocker – Ski profile with a 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 floatation on powder snow. The camber guarantees great grip on packed snow in any case.
Shape
3 Matrix – The sidecut, camber and construction have been designed and adapted to function in perfect synergy during the turn. Sidecut geometry designed for ski deformation during turns. The 3D surface of the ski guarantees flexibility, optimal stability and reduced inertia.
Core
Wood Core
Laminates
Titanal Laminate – Aids stability and smoothness at speed and on chattery snow.
Sidewalls
Sandwich Compound Sidewall – Improved transmission of skier's movements to edge. Constant pressure along the entire length of the ski for greater stability, control and maximum carving performance.
Base
Sintered Graphite Base
Included Bindings
Includeds Power12 TCX Bindings – DIN Range 4 - 12
Bindings Do Not Come Mounted to Skis – Always have a certified binding technician mount and adjust your bindings.

Terrain
Carving For those that like the classic feeling of laying a ski over on edge and arcing a perfect turn, carving skis are what you want. These skis have narrower waists and shorter turn radii for edge to edge quickness and responsive turn initiation and exit on groomed runs and hard pack. The beginner-intermediate skis in this category are designed to make learning how to turn as easy as going from pizza to French fries. 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.

Ability Level
Intermediate-Advanced Whether you’re a progressing intermediate exploring new runs and terrain, or an accomplished rider seeking new thrills, the majority of skiers and snowboarders fall into this level. Intermediate to advanced skis and snowboards may be somewhat wider or stiffer than beginner-intermediate skis and snowboards, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Intermediate to advanced boots and bindings range from softer flexing freestyle options to stiffer choices built for stability at speed.

Rocker Type:
Rocker/Camber/Rocker
More
Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber/Rocker Rocker/Camber/Rocker skis have the playfulness and float of a rockered ski as well as the added edge hold of a cambered ski. The contact points on skis with this profile are closer towards the middle of the ski than a fully cambered ski, but still not underfoot. The cambered midsection provides a longer effective edge on hardpack, increasing edge hold and stability, while the rockered tip and tail provide floatation in deeper snow and allow the ski to initiate and release from turns easier.

Tail Type
Flat This is your traditional tail, designed to have edge contact all the way through the tail, and only designed for skiing forward. This is also preferred for alpine touring, as you can stick the tails of your skis in the snow.
