Volkl Blaze 114 2024
Scroll to see an in depth look at why we love this ski:
Hybrid Dominator: When the snow is deep and you want to explore, you need a lightweight-nimble guy in your quiver. Whether it is in the backcountry or the resort, this ski is your guy.
Dimensions: At a burley 114mm under foot, this ski floats beautifully above the snow.
Big-Mountain Construction: The Hybrid Multilayer Woodcore Green core is a very complex core that is used in the Blaze 114. Specially chosen light woods are picked both for sustainability and performance. Volkl added inserts made of elastic TPU material on the edges of the tip and tail which act like a bumper in wind-blown or tracked snow. Its shock-absorbing elasticity ensures better stability and catch-free float. Plus, a thin Titanal layer (0,3 mm) under the binding delivers the necessary strength to the ski. This way the binding screws offer reliable hold even in the toughest conditions.
Rocker Profile: A Tip & Tail Rocker bends up only in the shovel and tail zones, with a camber shape in the middle. Plus, the Blaze features Volkl’s 3D Radius Sidecut – Three radii in one ski shape deliver maximum versatility - long radii at the tip and tail for stability and smoothness, and a short radius in the mid-body allows the skier to switch from long arcs to short turns at will, at any speed.
