Why We Like it: As the fattest ski in Blizzard's touring-specific Zero G lineup, the Zero G 105 Ski is the best option for riding powder deep in the backcountry. The ski's performance is due to Blizzard's revolutionary Flipcore Technology, which provides even pressure distribution for increased float and a more harmonious flex.
Notes from a Gearhead: “These are my first lightweight skis and I am more than happy with them. Tested them in-bounds for a day and they held up very well on groomers, crud and chalky chutes. I have skied them in powder and they skied great. They ski corn perfectly. Simply put, these are ripping skis, lightweight or not.”
Product Info
Rocker type:
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.
Core:
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.
Laminate:
Carbon Drive Technology – Blizzard integrates a 3D unidirectional carbon fiber frame over a Paulownia wood core with sidewalls underfoot. The 3D geometry of the carbon frame provides optimal flex and torsional rigidity, and a level of downhill performance that is unprecedented in an alpine touring ski.
Sidewalls:
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
