Product Info
When comparing the Blizzard Bonafide Skis + XTE 10 Demo Bindings to the Cochise or Bodacious, it might seem to be the "baby-bro" of the three. However, there is nothing juvenile about this immensely well-received ski. The Blizzard Bonafide Ski is the winner of numerous awards, praised for its all-mountain effectiveness, and sells out every year. Coming in at 98mm underfoot, it is an ideal all-mountain ripper for frontside skiers who don't want to limit their options when the pow hits. Unlike the Cochise and Bodacious, the Bonafide sports a generously cambered mid-section for ultimate hard snow edging performance, while retaining moderate tip and tail rocker for the occasional powder day.
Product Details
Rocker Type
3D Tip-Tail Rocker – Mild tip and tail rocker with camber underfoot for a balance of soft snow performance and strong edging and carving.
Core
CNC 3D Poplar-Bamboo-Paulownia Isocore Woodcore with Titanium
Flipcore 3D Technology – Unlike most other companies, who start with a cambered core and "bend" it in the mold to create a rockered ski, Blizzard starts with a rockered core and components in the first place - everything goes into the press in the same shape as it comes out. Sound like marketing BS? Sure, except for the fact the the Flipcore skis have received almost universal praise from experts in their short time on the market. Maybe Blizzard is onto something here . . .
Laminates
Spaceframe 3D – 1 titanal laminate layer with strategic cutouts provides optimum swing weight, balanced flex, improved torsional transmission and reduced vibrations over the whole ski
Sidewalls
Sandwich Compound Sidewall (Ti)
Base
Strong Graphite Base
Included Bindings
Demo Bindings Come Mounted to Skis – Always have a certified binding technician adjust your bindings.

Terrain
Carving For those that like the classic feeling of laying a ski over on edge and arcing a perfect turn, carving skis are what you want. These skis have narrower waists and shorter turn radii for edge to edge quickness and responsive turn initiation and exit on groomed runs and hard pack. The beginner-intermediate skis in this category are designed to make learning how to turn as easy as going from pizza to French fries. All-Mountain All-mountain skis are designed to handle anything you throw at them including powder, ice, groomers, steeps, heavy snow, and everything in between, but they aren’t necessarily a master of any one terrain. If you’re only going to own one ski to do it all, this is what you want. All-mountain skis generally have what we call mid-fat waists that range from 80-110 mm.

Ability Level
Intermediate-Advanced Whether you’re a progressing intermediate exploring new runs and terrain, or an accomplished rider seeking new thrills, the majority of skiers and snowboarders fall into this level. Intermediate to advanced skis and snowboards may be somewhat wider or stiffer than beginner-intermediate skis and snowboards, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Intermediate to advanced boots and bindings range from softer flexing freestyle options to stiffer choices built for stability at speed.

Rocker Type:
Rocker/Camber/Rocker
More
Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber/Rocker Rocker/Camber/Rocker skis have the playfulness and float of a rockered ski as well as the added edge hold of a cambered ski. The contact points on skis with this profile are closer towards the middle of the ski than a fully cambered ski, but still not underfoot. The cambered midsection provides a longer effective edge on hardpack, increasing edge hold and stability, while the rockered tip and tail provide floatation in deeper snow and allow the ski to initiate and release from turns easier.

Partial Twin Tip

Tail Type
Partial Twin Tip Partial twin tip skis have a tail that is turned up, but not as much as the tip. This gives you the ability to ski backwards and back out of tight spaces, but these skis are mainly designed to ski forward.
