Product Info
Blizzard Cochise Skis 2012: The scene is set: Overnight, two feet of fresh snow, it’s a bluebird day. You are on the first lift, then a short hike and you have reached your dream destination. One drop into a short, steep gully, then the mountain opens up and you step on the accelerator. Big turns, straight lines, pure adrenaline. Blizzard’s Cochise Skis were made for this, and so were you.
Product Details
Shape
The Blizzard Cochise Skis have tip & tail rocker, with slight camber underfoot. This allows the skis to float up in powder and crud. Rocker helps you to stay on top of the snow while maintaining an easy to handle and pivot feel.
Construction
The Sandwich Compound Sidewall Titanium construction is comprised of a CNC 3D-Woodcore with Titanal layers, Laminate Reinforcement, Phenol Sidewall, and a strong Graphite base. These combine to create constant edge pressure over the entire length of the ski, giving you dynamic force distribution from edge to edge. Direct handling and impact resistance are unmatched, while the stable edge grip and intense carving performance give you perfect control.
Flex
The Blizzard Cochise Skis have a light wood core with Flipcore technology which is the first real natural rocker design in the history of ski production. The secret of this new technology is unbelievably simple: Blizzard just flipped the wood core upside down.
Dimensions
28.5m @ 185cm 135/108/123

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. Powder These skis are for the deep days. If you like to find powder stashes at your local resort, go on backcountry missions for the freshest of fresh or heli ski trips to BC, powder skis are what you need to stay afloat. Skis in the powder category are wide and most often have some form of rocker or early rise plus a relatively soft flex. Many powder skis today are versatile enough to handle mixed conditions and harder snow.

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/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:
Partial Twin Tip

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.
