" STEEP SKIBOOK ." We asked users at a new model test ride event. We present user impressions that could not be covered in the magazine.
Founded in 1945, BLIZZARD became part of the Tecnica Group in 2006 and has expanded into a wide range of categories from racing to freeriding. BLIZZARD is a long-established brand that continues to evolve, with its high-performance and highly acclaimed "RUSTLER" and "SHEEVA" models attracting attention at FWT. A regular skier gives an honest review of this season's featured skis from the ever-evolving brand.
Review of "RUSTLER 11"
The Trueblend Free Woodcore construction utilizes the unique properties of different woods, and titanium reinforcement provides both maneuverability in powder and stability on groomed runs. Even though it's a fat ski, it's capable of sharp carving turns
Light and easy to move!
I'm not a serious skier, but I've always wanted to try out the RUSTLER and was waiting for an opportunity to test ride it. When I finally got around to it, I found it to be a very light and easy-to-ride board. It was fun and satisfying.

Review of "RUSTLER 9"
This model combines maneuverability in powder with stability on groomed runs thanks to its Trueblend Free Woodcore structure that takes advantage of the characteristics of different woods and titanium reinforcement
The choice between fun and not is a stupid
one! It's fun. Cruising is so much fun!

The now-on-sale "STEEP SKI BOOK 2025" features reviews from 106 people, including professional and amateur skiers!
This impression project was participated in by 106 skiers, from riders receiving support to the general public. Find the skis you've been interested in and explore the sensory aspects that can't be measured by specs alone. We also tracked detailed information about the test riders, such as what gear they usually use, where they ski, and their height, weight, and physique. Reading the impressions with that information in mind should give you a clearer picture. Furthermore, if you're a skier, you can watch the skiers ski downhill on Instagram or YouTube. Gather information from multiple angles and have fun agonizing over the process to choose the best skis
