Product Info
If you love making clean, railed turns on the groomed and know it, there's nothing like a groomer-specific ski to make that happen. The Blizzard Quattro 8.0 Ti Skis + TCX12 Bindings are a great example and represent Blizzard's most versatile Quattro offering (in terms of width and rocker profile). At 80 mm in the waist, the 8.0 Ti has enough surface area to handle a wide variety of snow conditions, while 4 mm of rocker at the tip and tail make this ski extra forgiving. Blizzard makes some of the best skis in the industry, and it shows through in their quality IQ Sandwich Construction -- you can rest assured that the Quattro 8.0 Ti will stand up to many long days on the hill.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Rocker / Camber / Rocker – Ski profile with 4 mm of mild rocker at the tip and tail, and camber in the middle. Reducing the pressure on the edge at the tip and tail makes the ski easier to handle without sacrificing edge performance, while camber guarantees great grip on packed snow.
Laminates
IQ Sandwich Ti Construction – A high performance construction focusing on stability and edge grip but with a nice level of forgiveness.
Sidewalls
Compound Sidewall Ti
Base
Sintered Graphite Base
Binding Plate
IQ System – The IQ system is the only true fusion of ski body and binding element. The natural performance and flex of the ski are not influenced by any mounting, drilling, screwing or gluing of separate interfaces, elements or the binding itself. This exclusive technology guarantees natural ski flex, direct transmission of forces from skier to ski and a lighter construction for more effortless skiing and a fast, simple binding fit.
Included Bindings
Bindings Do Not Come Mounted to Skis – Always have a certified binding technician mount and adjust your bindings.
Includes IQ TCX12 Bindings – DIN Range 4 - 12
Additional Features
Suspension – A polyamide structure built into the ski’s construction and connected to an elastic dampening system guarantees less vibrations, a more dynamic ski and better edge grip for greater control and more effortless skiing.
Dura-Tec – Improved durability through the use of 20% thicker TPU foils, a textured topsheet surface, IQ rails with larger radii than average, and new 75% stronger tip and tail protectors.

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

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.
