The Blizzard BLACK PEARL 88 (FLAT) skis are designed for a unisex audience of experienced skiers looking for an all-mountain alpine ski to explore the entire wine estate. Their all-mountain design and 88 mm waist make them ideal for a variety of conditions, from groomed slopes to more varied terrain.

Classified in the all-mountain alpine ski category, the Blizzard BLACK PEARL 88 (FLAT) skis are designed for versatile use throughout the entire ski area. Their all-mountain design and “advanced” skill level target skiers who are already technically proficient and want a ski precise enough to link turns on groomed runs while still offering maneuverability when the snow gets more uneven. The unisex design broadens the user base and allows both male and female skiers to enjoy the same balance of stability, maneuverability, and gliding comfort.
At the heart of the Blizzard BLACK PEARL 88 (FLAT) skis lies a wooden Trueblend all-mountain core, designed to deliver progressive flex along the entire length of the ski. The combination of different wood species (beech and poplar) allows for varying stiffness across different zones, with increased density underfoot for precise edge control and softer zones toward the tip and tail for a smoother turn initiation. This core design results in more consistent performance, a “solid” feel underfoot, and more even power transfer—particularly appreciated by experienced skiers seeking stability without excessive stiffness.
The Blizzard BLACK PEARL 88 (FLAT) skis feature rocker at the tip and tail (Tip & Tail) combined with camber underfoot—a configuration designed to balance grip in turns with ease of pivoting. The raised tip and tail help initiate turns without excessive effort, while providing welcome forgiveness in softer or rutted snow. The sidecut dimensions for the standard 158 size (126 mm at the tip, 88 mm at the waist, 108 mm at the tail) and the 13-meter turning radius contribute to a relatively quick turn initiation, well-suited for intermediate turns on the piste. This profile allows the ski to remain responsive underfoot, while maintaining a predictable and progressive feel for the experienced skier who tackles runs on various types of snow.
With a standard length of 158 cm and a turning radius of 13 m, the Blizzard BLACK PEARL 88 (FLAT) skis are positioned in a segment focused on precision in turns while maintaining a certain flexibility in changes of pace. The 88 mm waist width offers a balance between solid grip on groomed snow and sufficient support when the snow surface becomes more uneven, which aligns with their all-mountain design. The range of lengths, from 158 to 176 cm, allows you to choose a length suited to your body type, preferred speed, and style of carving. Finally, the blue color gives this alpine ski a sleek and modern look, consistent with regular use on the slopes as part of the WINTER 2027 collection.
The Blizzard BLACK PEARL 88 (FLAT) are unisex all-mountain alpine skis designed for experienced skiers, combining a Trueblend all-mountain core, Tip & Tail rocker, and an 88 mm waist for versatile skiing across the entire resort.
