Blizzard Zero G 85 Ski
At 85 mm underfoot, the Zero G 85 is slimmer and lighter than the other skis in Blizzard's Zero G collection, making it ideal for adventures that require a longer skin out or for skiers wanting to pick up the pace. This can't be emphasized enough -- if skinning all day and night brings you to salivation, you've found a reliable partner.
For a ski of this width and minimal weight, the downhill performance is still solid, thanks to Carbon Drive 2.0 and Blizzard’s Austrian engineering. Although still on the stiffer side, this year's version provides enough rocker to make this puppy a pleasure to turn in tight environs, while not getting bogged down in variable snow conditions.
The Zero G 85 is fixed on supporting everything from your next epic mission, to crushing vert and distance, to knocking out your uphill fitness workout.
