Blizzard Firebird SL WC Skis 2020 (FIS)

The 2020 Blizzard Firebird SL WC Skis are considered one of the top SL Skis available. This ski is the World Cup Race Department version, made specially in the race room at Mittersill.  It has a very well-balanced flex.  The sandwich construction with high-grade wood core and titanium inserts gives the Blizzard slalom skis their harmonious flex characteristics and transfers energy to the edge, while grip remains uncompromised - even in the tightest of turns.  The waist and length of the Blizzard Firebird SL WC skis allow turns to be carved instantly while maximizing flexibility for ultra-fast edge switching.  The Blizzard Firebird SL WC Ski is the perfect ski for World Cup, FIS, USSA, and Masters racers.

Blizzard skis come from the manufacturer's factory raceroom not fully prepared for racing. Blizzard Slalom skis are set at the factory with a 1 degree base bevel and 3 degree side angle.  Peak Performance recommends for SL skis a .5 degree base bevel, 3 degree side angle, sidewalls pulled from the edge, and race wax applied.  In our drop-down menu above, we offer several levels of race preparation to choose from as options.  Please refer to the Race Tuning & Services page for more information and advanced options, and in your order notes please tell us what base angle you prefer if you are choosing the Elite or World Cup Prep add on.  Premium prep does not include base edge modification.

Blizzard skis require the use of Marker bindings - Marker XCell 12, Marker XCell 16 or Marker XCell 18.  Please refer to the drop down menu if you need to add bindings to your order.
