What the manufacturer says

Our new vision of a 67 mm race ski with a 19 m radius. Born from decades of Austrian high-performance tradition and imbued with ambitious creativity, it represents a leap forward. The “Trueblend Race” wood core and a modernised sidecut combine with tried-and-tested construction: phenolic sidewalls, World Cup base and triple Titanal layering. These elements combine to create a ski that stands apart from all others in the Blizzard range – powerful, precise and uncompromisingly different. Not for the faint-hearted!

SKIMAGAZIN review

“Wicked! Wicked! Wicked!” – rarely has a tester’s verdict been so emotional and yet so spot on. The Racetype LT combines superb smoothness with astonishing versatility. It carves through long turns with uncompromising precision, whilst medium-radius turns are surprisingly playful for an LT. It demands concentration and skill, but doesn’t intimidate. If you ride it cleanly, you’ll get speed, stability and plenty of smiles. A race ski for very sporty skiers who are looking for long-turn power but don’t want to compromise on versatility.
