A tester favorite since its introduction two years ago, the Blizzard Rustler 11 2020 is a hard charging ski that’ll have you grinning as you leave your buddies in the dust. Here, Blizz’ focuses its efforts on what’s inside: A combination of balsa, paulownia, poplar and beech woods provide balanced rigidity, dampening and weight savings while a rocker-camber-rocker profile allows for playfulness in the pow and reliable edge-to-edge action in variable terrain. These skis are a fully-loaded hoagie that’ll have you drooling for more.

FREESKIER tester thoughts: “This ski is a fucking dream. I love it. I want it. I need it. So great in the deep stuff. So great in the crud. A perfect ski for the days after a storm.”

“A damn damp ski that, coupled with the running length, made high speed push-pile groomers smooth as butter.”
