Völkl Blaze 106 W
Völkl
The Völkl Blaze 106 W is for the ladies who tend to forge their own path down the mountain—forgoing marked trails altogether. At 106-mm underfoot, this hot shot of a ski was made to go wherever you damn well please. Up, down, all around, the Blaze 106 W is at your beck and call, and a 3D radius sidecut means you can switch from long, laid-out arcs to quick slalom turns at will. “If I were in the market for one ski, this could be a quiver killer for a lot of people,” says Steph Petter. Leslie Resnick adds, “The ski did everything exceptionally well.” A hybrid wood core shaves a lot of the weight that Völkl skis are known for without losing the lock-tight edge hold skiers depend on. But don’t let that fool you. A Titanal plate underfoot provides extra power for plowing through hard crud, stomping big drops and throwing them over on steep slopes.
