Blizzard Spur Skis 2018

The most unique shape in the business and some of the best graphics of the year are totally appropriate for the Blizzard Spur Skis. More compliant in chop and easier to turn at moderate speeds, the new Spur is an entirely different breed of animal than its predecessor and features an asymmetrical tip and tail shape with a 26 meter turn radius along one edge and a 30 meter radius on the other. Creative freeriders (see Jackie Paaso) are already choosing a sidecut to match conditions, but we'll leave the experimentation to you. Don't be scared off by the 192 cm length of these bad rides; we've seen riders from 130 lbs. to 220 lbs. rock these with ease while sporting huge smiles. Stop merely dreaming about next season's epic pow and kick some rump with the new Blizzard Spur.

Product Details

Rocker Type

Rocker Flat RockerSki profile with noticeable rocker at the tip and tail, flat in the middle. The noticeable curvature of the tip and tail favors optimal flotation in backcountry terrain. The flat profile in the middle guarantees stability on harder snow.

Sidecut

Asymmetrical Sidecut30 meters on the "long" side, 26 meters on the "short" side - take your pick.

Shape

Unique Asymmetrical ShapeDon't take our word for it, check out the pictures.

Core

ISO Paulownia Balsa Poplar Beech Woodcore

Carbon Flipcore TechnologyA revolutionary rockered ski production process that incorporates a uni-directional carbon frame onto the core of the ski that results in great performance with a light and easy feel.

Laminates

Carbon Flipcore D.R.T.Blizzard's Dynamic Release Technology, shared by the Spur, Rustler and Sheeva series, utilizes a specially shaped Titanal component that is full width under the boot but tapers toward the tip and tail of the ski, to increase the ski's playfulness without the weight penalty and without sacrificing stability. Combined with unidirectional carbon fiber in the tip and tail, longitudinal stability is retained while torsional rigidity is lessened for a more playful and less hooky feel.

Sidewalls

Sandwich Compound SidewallAll Blizzard skis with the exception of some junior skis are built with ABS or Phenol sidewalls for superior performance (stability, power transmission, handling) and durability.

Base

Sintered Graphite Base

Binding Compatibility

We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

Marker Griffon Ski Bindings 2016

The Marker Griffon Ski Bindings are our top selling performance binding year after year. The reasons are obvious - excellent energy transmission, light weight compared to other bindings in its class, and solid durability have made the Griffon a fan favorite that finds its way onto more freeride skis than any other 12 to 14 DIN clamp. Marker's gliding AFD (anti-friction device) ensures consistent release with all types of ISO 5355 alpine soles and is less dependent on cleanliness or condition than stationary AFD's. The Inter Pivot Heel is time tested and offers excellent vertical elasticity as well as reliable release when you really need it. Step into the Griffon this season and find your own sweet spot.

The type of AFT is matched to the skier type, ensuring perfect functionality from racing to junior and even alpine touring.

Triple Pivot Elite Toe PieceWith a horizontally oriented spring, it provides the highest energy absorption to reduce the risk of early release. The secure purchase on the boot lug optimizes power transmission and allows for durable, high energy use. The performance to weight ratio of the Triple Pivot toe is truly unmatched in the industry.
