Blizzard G Power Full Suspension review 2013
PROSKILAB™ reviewers' comments
The Blizzard G Power Suspension is too perfomance-oriented for this programme where we're really looking for a one-quiver ski that's accessible and comfortable. However, it's a truly high performer and we recommend it for racers who really know their technical stuff technique and are in tip top shape physically speaking.
Review: Pros
- The Blizzard G Power is a rigid, agile ski, that performs brilliantly at high speed. It's grippy and is highly stable and at ease in large radius turns, while it's lively and responsive in tighter turns.
Review: Cons
- This is a technical ski that demands physical prowess and time to adapt to it. The rigidity of the front of the ski, which increases stability at high speeds, makes it less at ease in turn initiation. The ski requires the rider to be "frontside", pushing down on the power strap.
