Blizzard Sheeva 9 Skis

While some folks prefer beefy powder boards for the resort with heavy cores and fat waists, you can’t match the precise feel of a conservatively sized freeride ski when it comes to maneuvering technical lines around the whole mountain. The Sheeva line from Blizzard implements the nimble feel of carbon core construction across the whole line, and the Sheeva 9 is certainly one of the most versatile thanks to the modest 90mm waist which handles anything from East coast ice to boot-deep powder with admirable finesse. We love the Carbon Flipcore technology which provides the damp and stiff qualities that Blizzard skis are known for, all in a featherweight package which helps lessen fatigue over endless laps on your favorite chair. Rocker in the ski’s tip and tail planes evenly over variable snow, making the Sheeva a worthy accomplice if you continue to shred your favorite runs long after the powder turns into tracked-up crud.
