Rocker Camber Rocker – Ski profile with 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 flotation on powder snow. The camber guarantees great grip on packed snow.

W.S.D. Shape Concept – Traditional wide frontside sidecut with effortless radius gives this "Women's Specific Design" an edge. Forward mounting position for an easy turn initiation.

W.S.D. Light Poplar Beech Woodcore

W.S.D. Carbon Flipcore Technology – A 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.

Uni-Directional Carbon Frame

Multi-Directional Fiberglass Reinforced with Carbon

Binding Reinforcement Layer

Sandwich Compound Sidewall – All 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.

Sintered Graphite Base

Dura-Tec – Improved durability through the use of thicker TPU foils on the topsheet edges.

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

Permanence – Permanence breeds ultimate convenience. With PHANTOM, you apply the formula once at any point in your ski or snowboard’s life cycle, whether new or used. It’s that simple. PHANTOM’s sophisticated, timed polymerization process permanently penetrates the entire thickness of the base material with powerful go-fast fluoro compositions designed to operate across all snow temperatures. Even when the ski or snowboard goes into a shop for stone grindings, the next fresh layer of PHANTOM is exposed –– ready to glide.

Performance – Unless you are constantly waxing with correct temperature specific waxes, PHANTOM is faster across all conditions over time because its performance is consistent: you never suffer the glide degradation that occurs when conventional wax quickly wears away.

Environment – The innovation centers around the inclusion of glide-friendly fluorocarbon functional groups, but in a superior, new delivery method that renders them inert and harmless to humans, plants and animals. PHANTOM doesn’t cause biological damage, and doesn’t present any long-term environmental risks.

Home Application – PHANTOM can be applied by an individual with access to direct and consistent UV sunlight to activate and cure the formula. Ideally, this should be done during the Spring, Summer, and Autumn seasons when the sun is high and temperatures are. For proper PHANTOM application, it’s critical for there be strong, direct sunlight and temperatures over 32ºF / 0ºC. Cure time is roughly 2 hours total, with another 20 minutes of prep work and brushing to complete the application. DPS also recommends base cleaner or a fresh stone grind prior to application.

Cure Station – PHANTOM can be applied professionally by an Authorized PHANTOM Installer using a Cure Station. The process takes approximately 15 minutes for part A, and 15 minutes for part B, with minor additional preparation and soak time. This is the most precise and fast method to apply PHANTOM to skis or snowboards, and is a reliable all-season solution during the low light winter months, especially in more extreme latitudes, and in wetter climates where sunshine isn’t as consistent.
