Blizzard Firebird WRC

Manufacturer’s statement

A giant-slalom machine developed for those skiers who demand top performance in long radii. Stability, control and precision come from the “Trueblend Race Woodcore” construction: the core allows exact tuning of flex by laminating woods of different densities lengthwise. Combined with the “Duramax” Titanal construction, the Firebird WRC also gains extra snap and dynamism.

SKIMAGAZIN verdict

The classic convinces with its versatility: powerful, direct and smooth-running, yet agile and – for a GS model – impressively tolerant of mistakes. Whether on the gas in long arcs or playful in shorter turns – this ski delivers. “Allows very high speeds, gives lots of feedback and confidence,” say our testers. For ambitious skiers who want race performance with plenty of fun. A highly sporty all-rounder among GS models – also suitable for the afternoon on crowded pistes.
