Description
The Blizzard Zero G 85 is a very well-known and appreciated ski touring/ski mountaineering ski, which is part of the Blizzard Zero G (Zero Gravity) range, renowned for its lightness and downhill performance.
Here is a summary of its key characteristics:
Profile and Objective
| Feature | Detail |
| Ski Type | Ski Touring / Ski Mountaineering |
| Waist Width | 85 mm (the narrowest and lightest in the Zero G range) |
| Skier Profile | Confirmed to Expert, focused on fast ascent and efficiency in long vertical climbs, while demanding good downhill performance. |
| Preferred Terrain | Hard snow, steep couloirs, technical terrain, and spring conditions (spring snow). |
Weight and Construction
Weight is its major asset, making it ideal for the ascent:
-
Weight (bare ski): Approximately 1025 g to 1110 g per ski (in reference size 164 cm to 171 cm).2
Technology: Carbon Drive 2.0 or 3.0 (depending on the year). This is a 3D carbon fiber chassis inserted into an ultra-light wood core (Paulownia).
-
It is this technology that allows it to be both very light and offer excellent torsional rigidity for quality edge grip on hard snow and in steep passages.
-
Geometry and Skiability
-
Sidecut (approx.): 115 - 85 - 99 mm (in size 171 cm).
-
Turning Radius (approx.): 21.5 m (in size 171 cm), which is a long radius, favoring stability at high speed and large turns.
-
Rocker: Slight rocker in the tip and tail with classic camber, which facilitates floating in soft snow while maintaining good edge grip.
In summary, if you are looking for a high-performance and ultra-light ski touring ski to eat up vertical without compromising your road holding in difficult conditions, the Zero G 85 is an essential reference.
