The Blizzard Black Pearl 82 Skis occupy a unique niche in the ski world as an option with the ability to delight expert level skiers while not overwhelming newer followers of the sport. Calm and precise on edge, but without the unforgiving nature of some pure carving skis, the Black Pearl 82 is a winner for a wide range of front side skiers.
Rocker Camber Rocker – Ski profile with rocker at the tip and tail, camber in the middle. Reducing the pressure on the edge at the tip and tail makes the ski even easier to handle and increases flotation on powder snow. The camber guarantees great grip on packed snow.
W.S.D. (Woman Specific Design) Shape Concept – Carbon Flipcore Technology is used with a specifically designed lighter core construction to deliver the performance and playfulness that women are looking for in an all-mountain ski.
Carbon Flipcore Technology – A revolutionary rockered ski production process that incorporates a uni-directional carbon frame onto the core of the ski that results in great performance with a light and easy feel.
TrueBlend Woodcore – Combining Beech and Poplar woods in a uniquely balanced blend that's tailored to the performance needs of each Blizzard all-mountain ski, the TrueBlend cores are labor-intensive but worth the extra effort.
Carbon Reinforcements – Edge-to-edge carbon inserts under the binding mount area provide maximum stability and confidence and better binding retention.
Two-Piece W.S.D. Titanal Laminate for Grip and Stability – No longer a single sheet of Titanal, the 2025 Black Pearl uses a two-piece laminate with a sheet of fiberglass in between the layers. The upper layer of metal resembles the shape of the FluxForm Titanal layer in the Sheeva skis and the lower layer fills in the gap in the center.
Anti-Shock Layer
Sandwich Compound Sidewall – All Blizzard skis with the exception of some junior skis are built with ABS or Phenol sidewalls for superior performance (stability, power transmission, handling) and durability.

Looking for a high performance mid volume boot that can handle anything you throw at it without the punishing feel of stiffer options? The Tecnica Mach1 MV 95 W Ski Boots are best in class, balancing all day comfort with a moderately firm flex that should satisfy all but the most aggressive skiers. The C.A.S. Liner is warm and highly moldable without sacrificing an ounce of performance, and women's specific design throughout means it's tuned to your anatomy for the most comfortable stance when you're lacing turns downhill.
Last: 100 mm – A mid-volume last designed for average feet.
C.A.S. Shell – The C.A.S. shell has an anatomical shape that matches the foot shape. This allows for a better out-of-the-box fit. Dimples on the shell reduce surface tension and facilitate the thermo customization process, making it easier for a bootfitter to modify the shell to fit your foot.
C.A.S. Cuff Adapt – A thermal cover that easily adapts to the shape of the lower leg once heated.
Women's Specific Cuff Design – The structure and construction of the upper part of the liner are shaped to ensure perfect adaptation to the female calf.
Flex: 95 – A firm flex for advanced skiers who require quick rebound and ski response.
Performance C.A.S. Liner – C.A.S. liners are anatomically shaped for optimal comfort and great heel hold. The dual density micro-cell material is durable, easy to customize, and has a low pack-out rate maintaining a great fit over a longer period of time. For unmatched personal customization the C.A.S. liner can be thermo-molded, punched, and ground.
Celliant® Insulation – Celliant is powered by 13 thermoreactive minerals that convert body heat into infrared energy. Infrared penetrates deep into the tissue to increase circulation, oxygen and blood flow. This results in improved performance, thermal regulation and faster recovery.
Thermoforming Collar
Shell – C.A.S. Polyurethane
Cuff – Polyolefine
T.Drive Rear Spine – Rear spine with fiberglass insert solidifies the connection between shell and cuff and improves rearward support and response.
Quick Instep – The instep material is softer making stepping in and out easy and avoiding unnecessary pain, especially at low temperatures.
Asymmetric Power Transmission – The inside of the boot is made with thicker plastic to increase support where needed. This provides more lateral power transmission and increased edge grip.
Double Cuff Alignment
12˚ Forward Lean
Women's Natural Stance – Tecnica performed scientific research to determine the optimal ski stance for women. The final outcomes are the Women's Specific Cuff and a 3mm higher back spine for natural balance, less fatigue and increased performance on your skis.
4 Aluminum Micro-Adjustable Buckles
Lift Lock Buckles – The lift lock system makes your life easier by automatically keeping the buckles open while you step in and out of the boots.
35mm Velcro Power Strap
C.A.S. Boot Board – The removable C.A.S. boot board offers plenty of thickness for grinding and a grid pattern for reference.
