Zero G 095 flat - light blue

Blizzard Zero G 95, which is an ultra-light and highly acclaimed touring ski. It is one of the flagship models in the touring ski category that prioritizes lightness for the ascent without completely sacrificing downhill performance.

The 95 refers to the waist width (middle of the ski) in millimeters, making it a versatile ski, ideal for daily touring in a variety of snow conditions.

1. Objective and Weight

Category: Touring Ski.

• Weight: This is one of its greatest assets. The Zero G 95 is extremely light, generally weighing between $1150 \text{ g}$ and $1250 \text{ g}$ per ski (for a medium size).

• Target Audience: Committed touring skiers who seek to maximize the number of vertical meters climbed while maintaining a high-performance ski for the descent.

2. Key Technology: Carbon Drive 2.0

The construction is what sets the Zero G 95 apart from its light competitors:

• Carbon Drive Technology: Uses a 3D carbon fiber frame that is integrated along the entire length of the ski.

  • This carbon frame provides the torsional rigidity and stability necessary to control the ski on the descent.

  • This reduces the amount of material in the core (very light Paulownia wood) without making the ski too soft.

• Result: The ski is incredibly light on the climb, but remains surprisingly stable and powerful for its weight on the descent, especially on firm or variable snow.

3. Geometry

• 95 mm underfoot: A very versatile width. It offers enough flotation for fresh powder (especially with its progressive rocker) and is narrow enough to be fast and maneuverable on hard snow or in the forest.

• Profile: Rocker-Camber-Rocker. The camber underfoot ensures grip, and the rockers at the tip/tail facilitate flotation and pivoting.

In summary:

The Blizzard Zero G 95 is a high-end touring ski, ideal for skiers who consider ski touring a sport in its own right and who want a ski that is light on the climb without the sensation of a "toothpick" on the descent.
