Blizzard Bodacious Skis 2013

Looking for a ski to stomp 40 foot airs while railing in mixed 50˚ terrain at super-G speeds? The Blizzard Bodacious Skis deliver like a New York City bike messenger on an I.V. drip of Red Bull. Not for the faint of heart, or tentative slipping around in tight spaces, this wide, stiff and burly plank wants to get up and charge pretty much all the time. Built with full Flipcore Sandwich Sidewall Construction and an Isocore Woodcore with Bamboo stringers, Blizzard adds two full sheets of Titanal for über-smooth stability at speed and one of the best-finished base structures in the business. Say it again, only faster: Boe-day-schuss.
Rocker Type
Tip and tail rocker with a flat section underfoot lets you turn this ski with a bit less than Herculean effort at slower speeds
Core
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 - everything goes into the press in the same shape as it comes out. 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 . . .
CNC 3D-Bamboo Isocore Woodcore with Titanium
Laminates
2 Layers of Titanal for vibration-free dampness at speed and on hard snow
Laminate reinforcement
Sidewalls
Phenol sidewall
Base
Strong Graphite Base
Binding Compatibility
Bindings not included
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

Specs

  • Terrain: Big Mountain, Powder
    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.
    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
    Advanced-Expert
    Whether you charge the steepest lines, carve with race-like precision, hit the biggest jumps or halfpipes; advanced to expert level skis/snowboards are for the more aggressive rider. You will often find the addition of layers of metal, carbon, bamboo, or other stringers in these. These features work to make a stiffer ski/snowboard with more power and rebound.
  • Rocker Type: Rocker/Flat/Rocker
    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
    Long
    > 22 m radius is best for powder and big-mountain.
  • Core/Laminates: Bamboo, Wood
  • Tail Type: Full Twin Tip
    Full Twin Tip
    Desinged to allow you to ski backwards, full twin tips are found primarily on park & pipe skis and freestyle powder skis. More and more, we are seeing twin tips on all-mountain skis of all abilities, as it makes it a little easier to get around, and for the most part does not inhibit forward skiing.

    Comments about Blizzard Bodacious Skis 2013:

    I use this amazing ski whenever it gets deeper than 6 inches. It smears, floats, pops, stomps and shreds. It eats vertical feet like the cookie monster. It absolutely devours pow, beat up pow and crud, and arcs back to the lift. Just freaking awesome!

    Comments about Blizzard Bodacious Skis 2013:

    OMG these ski's rip - I have never been on a pair of boards that accelerate quicker. Super G the groomers. Fabulous edge control & very stable on the ice (very surprising for a rockered ski). Don't worry if you need to put on the brakes - you can also dump speed very quickly.

    I was a little concerned that I was sold a ski too short (186 / I'm 210 lbs & 6'-2") this was not the case. The shorter length makes these ski's more usable in the trees. As I've said there really isn't a speed limit - don't worry about that.

    I have my bodacious' mounted with marker schizo's. If you don't have the luxury spending the extra coin for the schizo's I would not recommend mounting the bindings any further back than 1 cm - esp if you EVER find yourself at the top of a bump run. I would lean towards the boot center / factory recommend position. The rocker gives these ski's plenty of float in the POW.

    It's hard to ski slow with these boards - they want to run. Typically I'm not a super fast skier but the Bodacious are so stable its hard not to rip it up!! -huge grin- oh yeah, they shred the POW like there's no tomorrow.

    I would choose my Bodacious on a POW day or a groomer day – in between I'd go with my Volkl Mantra's (which are a great all mountain ski)
