The versatility and all-mountain prowess of the Blaze 94 make it a top choice for those seeking one ski that can do almost everything. Designed to blur the line between freeride and touring, the Blaze 94 offers impressive downhill performance in a lighter-weight package. The ski’s shape and build are optimized for performance across the full spectrum of terrain and conditions you’re likely to encounter over an entire season.
Featuring a long and somewhat low rocker profile, it floats well on a few inches of new snow while also maintaining solid edge hold on corduroy. Völkl’s 4 Radius Drive sidecut allows for seamless transitions between long GS-style turns and short, agile carves—easily adapting to just about any skiing style. While the Blaze 94 may not excel in super-deep powder, its agility makes it adept in tight tree runs, and its stability ensures a smooth ride in bumps and variable terrain.
At the center of the Blaze 94’s exceptional performance is its core construction. Völkl’s Hybrid Multilayer Woodcore blends poplar and beech woods, balancing strength and weight. The Titanal binding platform not only offers a reliable hold for binding screws, it also enhances support and torsional stiffness, offering up a smooth and steady feel underfoot. Another standout feature of the Blaze 94 is the Suspension Tip and Tail, which utilizes a rubberized material to minimize chatter and provide stability, especially at higher speeds and in choppy snow conditions.
With a weight of 1,690 grams per ski (179 cm length), the Blaze 94 strikes a perfect balance between weight and performance for touring and resort skiing, respectively. Tack on Völkl’s Green Core construction, which consists of a combination with recycled base material and FSC-certified wood, and you can feel confident on your environmental impact when hitting the hill. Whether you’re a seasoned expert or an intermediate skier looking to up the ante, the Blaze 94 offers top-notch directional performance and reliability.
