Product Info
The Blizzard Firebird Competition 76 Skis + TPX12 Bindings take proven race construction and give it a slightly wider 76 mm platform and a multi-radius sidecut that lets you rock both short and long radius turns with precision. Designed as a ski for racers "on their day off" or expert piste skiers who appreciate the feel of a well-executed turn but don't want to expend World Cup level energy all day long, the Firebird Competition 76 is ideal for citizen racing or ripping perfect corduroy.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Full Camber
Sidecut
Multi Radius Turns – The same fasten-your-seatbelt power and rock and roll attitude of Blizzard's World Cup skis, in a Multi-Radius sidecut. The shovel is in between the WRC and SRC to satisfy skiers who need easy-to-handle but really stable and precise skis. The HRC & COMP 76 are built for shorter and longer turns and the radius is between the WRC and SRC. The perfect skis to charge the mountain anyway you want.
Core
C-Spine Core – Two bi-directional carbon fiber layers positioned vertically into the woodcore laminents provide incredible rebound, improved energy transmission, and super fast edge to edge response.
Laminates
Double Titanal Layer
Sidewalls
Sandwich Compound Sidewall – Full sidewalls provide torsional rigidity and constant pressure along the full length of the ski. The result is better energy transmission, stability, control and ultimately greater performance.
Base
Sintered Graphite Race Base
Binding Plate
FDT Race Plate – Adjustable binding platform that offers the same performance of the World Cup Piston Plate but 10% softer to satisfy the needs of daily users.

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.

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.

Rocker Type
Camber Camber is the traditional profile for skis offering skiers lots of edge hold, especially on harder snow. A cambered ski has a smooth arch underfoot and contact points near the tip and tail when unweighted. Camber skis excel at carving on hard snow; you won’t ever see a ski racer on anything other than cambered skis.

Tail Type
Flat This is your traditional tail, designed to have edge contact all the way through the tail, and only designed for skiing forward. This is also preferred for alpine touring, as you can stick the tails of your skis in the snow.
